Description

So, I sketched this out the day I read the announcement for the contest, but then I procrastinated and then I got too busy to even do it when I wanted, and now here I am.

It's 1:19 AM according the the very slow and very wrong computer clock on Thursday, May 1, which is what I thought the deadline was. Until I pull up the info and read that it was, in fact, April 30. I'm on crew for the school play, so I ended up getting home at 9 and couldn't start painting this until 10:30. I figured if I hurried I could make the deadline. Damn. I REALLY want a Wii. I was bound and determined to get it, so I stayed up to work on it and now if my parents catch me up, I'm effing screwed.

Anyway, I'm submitting this into the contest gallery because I worked so hard so late just to get it in, I don't care when the deadline was anymore.

About the painting: used transfer paper to transfer a copy of the original sketch onto watercolor paper. Painted completely with watercolors and two paintbrushes in different sizes. Scanner killed the logo in the corner. Sorry about the crappy scan quality, it's the best I could manage so quickly.

OMG! You into Okami, too?? I LOVE that game, one of my all-time favs! this is prettyful...and I feel your pain about the scanner, Mine's not the est either, my grandpa kindly bought it for us after our old one died (it had MILDEW in in, what the crap??) so I am gratful, but I miss the old one it was much better T.T that's why a lot of my pics are slightly blurry or warped...
