Whoot! Snarry Games Teams announced!

[tripperfunster]

Gawd I love the Snarry Games! And this year it's even better because THEY ASKED ME TO DO THE ART! *beams*

The teams are Dragon and Phoenix, and I almost had a conniption. I don't DO animals. Ever.
I was thinking I could draw a nice Snape/Harry embrace and be done with it. ;^)

Anyhoo, the critters turned out quite well (if I do say so myself) and the Games icon/banner makers made them look even better! swtalmnd There will be more Games art to come, but for now, here's the banner:

That is absolutely gorgeous! The Phoenix is magnificent and the dragon is awesome!
Incredible.

Thank you! They were quite challenging, but I'm happy with how they turned out.

Dude, your art for the games is AMAZING. Seriously, I don't believe that you have never done animals before. The detail is too perfect.

Thank you! I WORK with animals every day, I just don't draw them. I guess, when it all comes down to it, WHATEVER you draw is really just light and shadows, eh? :D

When someone is as good as you? Yeah, I can see that. :P

*blushes furiously*

It really is true though, about the shadows thing. Sometimes, if the subject matter is indimidating, breaking it down into shapes and shadows makes it a bit easier.

That's not what the chickens say.

*edited because I apparently can't spell while I'm cracking myself up.

Hey! *I* didn't have sex with those chickens, I merely took the photographs! ;^p

Hell, it's been so fekking cold here, they would probably appreciate a little friction! :D

ZOMG those beasties are SO AWESOME!! You totally deserve to pat yourself on the back for these, lady. I can't stop staring at the dragon!

The dragon was easy! He only took a couple of hours. That *^$^(&^)* bird, however, was almost my undoing! It took three tries to get him right (and the right size, for that matter) and I almost scrapped the third version too, but managed to get him under control.

thanks hon! <3
