Design

This was one of my most loved projects. We had to create a decorative design that involved the elements.
I am definitely doing a longer version of this this picture when I get the time.

These are some thumbs that I did.

I want to make this design longer.  I made a little test to see how the colours and such would work out.
 This was a larger rough of my design. At this point I had filled things in with dots and such.

This was inspired by calligraphy and those weird light ray things that splash out from the sun.

Here I was playing with negative space and such. I wanted to see what it would look like if the lines didn't overlap much.
This was an unused design that was inspired by Mucha. He is one of my fav. artists. I love how he even would make the hair decorative.
This is a Grey/Gray (never sure which one to use) version of it. In the coloured one I darkened the top and changed some other values slightly.
 This is the coloured version.
This is a bit of a close up on the design I made. I used model paint to do this, so when you hold it, it looks really glossy, plus the model paint (if you use it wear a mask and make sure to clean your brushes) gives really vibrant colours (especially red).

Sorry about the fizzy picture. This was the butterfly I used as a reference. It was in a framed panel with two others...but sadly one night it fell off the wall and the glass smashed. The butterflies inside just fell apart and I tried to fix it, but I made it worse :-( If anyone knows where I can get another Spot Swordtail tell me, because I really miss it.
