TriniTwinz commission finished!

So I haven't been totally useless during my sick week, but it kind of amazes me how something that took me this long to churn out on a regular year ended up getting completed in less than a week at a time when I could barely sit up or lift a spoon to feed myself. At any rate, my work is done and my commissioners are happy with it. Score!









Here are the real Twinz, Nadiah and Tracy. Aren't they lovely? They're currently working on developing a jewelry/fashion business, which is why they commissioned me in the first place. You networkers on my flist can totally add them on myspace too if you like: http://www.myspace.com/trinitwinz

They basically wanted me to draw a concept image of them in my own style, so I just went with the first idea that came to mind--classical Nadiah as the jeweler and funky Tracy as the seamstress. (yeah yeah, I totally cheated on Tracy's outfit by using the one I took a picture of...) I went for something super simple and streamlined and ended up retracing my entire sketch in photoshop. Can't say I regret doing it--it looks all graphic designy but not too stiff.

I'm oddly stoked by this: this was my first official commission on purpletophat.com. :D

Wow...

Dude, that's amazing! I'm torn between being envious of your very awesome skillz in art and absolutely enthralled that I get to see your works.

You did an impressive job on this one! They're gorgeous! And congrats on fulfilling your first commission!

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Might I say I feel about the same way when I read what you write? Speaking of that, I'm in the middle of reviewing your first chapter (at long last). I'm having a great time of it too.

I'm glad you think I did a good job. Apparently, the twins thought so too. One cried, the other hugged me a lot and kissed the print I made for her. I was so nervous about that ^^;;

Eeee, thanks Tram :D I actually couldn't finish this one for a year, but once I was back in the groove, I was ripping through it. You know, as much as I could rip through anything while barely being able to sit up.

So how have you been? I got your picture, btw, it made me so happy--I'll add it to my site soon. And what's this with the new myspace account?
