Sqwirl!

My favourite Disney character (though I confess I am not really a Disney person, I love some Ghibli however) is Dug from the film Up! And why am I telling you this?? Because....

SQUIRREL!!!!

(Apparently, in personality I am far more like Dory! I am not sure that was a compliment...)

Here is the Dr.Digi Squirrel from the Cuddly Critters set! 

And here is what the digi looks like in the shop -

And here is my version -

I also added in some scenery, just some acorns and leaves. Thought it would make a nice change! Did rather a lot of experimenting on this piece, especially with the colouring.

This is (almost) all polychromo pencils on smooth kraft card (called Hessian Buff). I did add some white highlights with a white posca pen, but removed most of it too.

Font is Zolano Serif BTN. Background paper was a magazine freebie from the stash. It's pretty ancient!

For those of you that would like more of a colouring recipe. Here are all the colours in the squirrel.

101, 104, 108, 115, 121, 130, 132, 175, 177, 187, 190, 199, 232, 274

Thanks for joining me today! Hope you have a smashing weekend.

Have a happy birthday OR ELSE!

I am writing this in a volcano, well that's what it feels like. I seem to have been hugging a fan for days! It's the UK, anything over 20 degrees Celsius is declared an inferno, lol.

In more important news, here is Enforcer Ted from Dr. Digi's House of Stamps, cos it's DT friday!

Colouring fur brings me Joy, and I am not making any excuses. When we went to see Secret Life of Pets 2 I was thrilled to find out that fur colourist is an ACTUAL JOB. And now I have new goals, lol!

Here is Ted in the shop (Only £1 too!) -

And here is my version of him -

This is all polychromo pencils apart from the ultra white glint in his eyes and nose that is white posca paint. The card I used is called Hessian Buff.  The font is called Unknown Caller BT. Background paper was from a recent Making Cards Magazine. Wooden Bling is a new release from Docrafts, Bare Basics.

Thanks for joining me today! You can go now because I need this fan all to myself and it's too hot to share for any longer ;) Pop to the Dr.Digi shop, where there is plenty of cool stuff!
