The Angel Gabriel from heaven came

...His wings of drifted snow, his eyes of flame (sorta)

…His wings of drifted snow, his eyes of flame (sorta)

Wow, we’re less than a year behind! Exciting. Maybe. Anyway, this is a picture drawn based on the Christmas hymn of the same title. It’s an exotic image, wings of snow and eyes of flame. But my interpretation didn’t work this time. Well, maybe the wings worked sort of, but the eyes didn’t really work. Also his hair was supposed to be that curly Greco-Romanesque style hair, but you can’t really tell, can you. And his robe wasn’t supposed to look wrinkley, just drapey. Oh well. But it does sort of look like he’s glowing, which is good. I used colouring pencil all over this, even if you can’t tell apart from the eyes.

Today I remembered I have some basic colouring markers and I got the urge to start my Flairé T-shirt that I want to make. I drew the front image, which is based on this picture (bwahahaha), and coloured it and everything. Now I’m working on the back image which is a portrait of Flairé himself and the pencil sketch has turned out rather well. Now let’s see if the inking and colouring turns out well! (*is nervous*)
