Just got the best necklace ever!!!

Yup. I bought it on Etsy about 11 days ago, and finally got it today. I'm talking about my Deathly Hallows necklace! Take a look:

ISN'T IT JUST AMAZING AND ASDFGHJKLMNBCSAAQWERTYUIOLMNBFDERTYJ...

Ok. I need to calm down. Why did I even make a post about this?

P.S I know my hand is sort of burned, I accidentally touched a burning hot stove yesterday. :D
P.P.S Remember I made a similar necklace in one of my drawings?

A little preview

I forgot to add this in my last post, but here is a sneak peek of what I'm working on right now. The main focus of this is a tattoo (mentioned in my previous post) that I have just started working on.

This is made 100% by me. Do you like it so far?

Rapunzel gone hipster :D

This is something I made when I was really bored in my Tangled obsession period (if you visited my Stardoll account recently, you might have noticed Pascal the chameleon sitting on my shoulder).

I don't have much experience with editing, it's very different from drawing something yourself because you need to match the style of the original picture. I think it ended up quite well considering it was my first time, but what do you think?

Here's a version in black and white:

I think it looks better, but you can't see the colours which was part of the editing.
And here is the original image so you can compare:

At first it looks like I only changed the clothes and gave Pascal a hat, but there are many small details too. For example, the arm is barely visible on the original picture so I had to draw one myself, and as I said before, try to use the same style of shading. Did I succeed?
Pascal had to be moved down, because the original sleeve is puffy. I also tried to make the hair ombre and adding a green stripe. I don't really like the stripe, it has a weird shape, but other than that it didn't turn out too bad.
The tattoo is a mix of the magic flower and the kingdom flag, which I have been practicing on in the last few weeks. I can draw it much better now, and it will probably come out in a tattoo in my new drawing (spoiler alert!).
By the way, the t-shirt is something I found on Polyvore (and instantly fell in love, but it's way too expensive for me to buy).

Soo, what do you think about this edit? Don't be afraid to comment with your opinion, I don't bite! :D

No, I'm not dead...

I'm sorry for leaving this blog inactive and dead for... how long? A month? I have about a million things I would like to post/ask you readers about, I'll try to do that over the next few days so you won't have to read one big, fat post.

I'll start with a drawing I made around the 5th of June for a friend.

She requested the clothes, background etc. And I know that it looks like the girl is falling over to one side. I tried to fix it and change the upper half of the body for, like, 4 or 5 times (I'm not even exaggerating) and it looked much better then before, but when I finished I could see that it was still not good enough.
What I like about this is the face, the dress and most of all the background. I've tried to make a similar one for later use, but it just doesn't look as good as this one.

I think I'll put the next thing in a separate post, which you will hopefully see today or tomorrow.

What do you think about this graphic/drawing thingy? :)

P.S. One of the reasons for my inactivity was that I started working on a new blog (mentioned in my last post), so I wanted to post all these new things there instead of spending time on this one. But suddenly I just lost interest for it and it's just standing there, locked for visitors, collecting dust. Do you think I should continue with it and use it as a place to post drawings, edits, real life things and thoughts/rants? Or is this blog enough?

kcv183's graphic (finally finished!)

I'm sorry for taking so long time with the graphic, but today I've finally found time to finish it.

I know the shading is choppy and it's sort of meh but I tried to do my best.
Hope you like it! :)

Maria

When I finish the graphic requests I have I'm planning to start a new, NOT Stardoll-related blog with graphics, drawings, photos, real-life related things and all sorts of other stuff. I promise to make it more interesting and active than this blog!
What do you think about this idea? Because I can't do it if it doesn't get any followers :(
