Artist's Comments

Yay! After a year working on this, I'm finally done! This is the composite of the River Twine Holt ([link]) tribe's portraits I've been working on (at least, the tribe as it exists right now). In truth, I didn't expect it to drag on for a year; it probably should have only taken 5 or 6 months. (I completed 18 figures since about the beginning of April.) It's annoying that I can look at it and see the stylistic difference between the earliest-done figures and the latest-done ones.

Pentel Brush-Pen inks, Copic markers, after-effects in Photoshop.

It's a really great "family portrait". No wonder it took you so long to do, with all these chars ! It's a real great work :-)
:iconshepherdessdog:
I love it as well. You get such great textures using those markers of yours.

Eeep!!!

These are always amazing. Makes me wish I were in a fan holt too! :)

Definitely a pice for the members to be proud of. I can't imagine the work!
:iconqueststar:
Awesomeness, Holly! I love the background you gave to it, and a deep respect for your patience (heh -- I have yet to complete my portrait series ;-)) I know you worried about how Kestrel's magic turned out but it seems way better against a dark background. Pity the unwrap elves aren't in it (given Rill's size, I supposed it would be a picture after the unwrappings ;)) But, I can imagine it'd mean even more work ;)

Superb, really. *bows*
:iconsgaana:
The others will get added after they're actually unwrapped; but given how much Rill will change between "now" and the time-jump, I didn't want to do him as a tiny baby only to have that be out of date almost immediately.
:iconqueststar:
Ahh, I see! Another question, will you add Windburn's and Whispersilk's cub when it's born, then?

I really love the composition, I still stare in awe :)
:iconsgaana:
Yeah, I'll just have to redraw Whispersilk so that she's holding the kid. (Which is good, because she was one of the earliest done, and I'd like to redraw her anyway.) Who I'll also probably do more as a toddler than an infant, and nevermind whether that's accurate alongside Rill. What the heck, they'll both have to be redone after the time-jump anyway!
:iconkooriwow:
What a beautiful picture, brings back wondering memories of my Holt experiences from many MANY years ago. Not having the artist eye I can’t tell the older ones from the newer ones they blend very well. Well done!
:iconkittmouri:
Very cool! ^_^

Come live with me, and be my love, And we will some new pleasures prove, Of golden sands, and crystal brooks, With silken lines, and silver hooks.
