Um...

Ok, so Illustration Friday's prompt this week is retro, and that's not really my thing. As you would have seen if you'd watched me draw out something vaguely retro-ish and then completely mess with it by deciding to colour it up in metallics (this is Derwent metallic watercolour pencils with Pentel metallic pen). What can I say? It was what I was in the mood for.

I say you would have seen that retro's not my thing, but as usual my cheap scanner pretty much ignored the watercolour part of the doodle. I've had to bump the saturation on the scan up so much that this almost does look nearly sort of kind of like it might be almost retro now.

Almost. Did I mention almost?

Ah well, at least it's something. This blog has been neglected lately. I'd say I'll try to be more active, but I don't want to set myself up for any promises.



Oh, I should say that this is an ATC, so if you're interested just contact me. Keep in mind that the reality doesn't look much like what's on the screen, though.
