I'm Batty!

Although Sexy Hexy Hilda is the star of the show (on the Sexy Hexy Hilda Stamp Set by Witt & Sass) I did rather like the bat best, so I made him HUGE and then coloured him in, with sentiment also from the set!


I actually scanned him and resized him. 

Remember it's good etiquette to check with the stamp designer or owner if you want to do this and publish your finished card online. (I don't think it matters if you buy the stamp and do it just for you to send cards to friends, the problem is duplicating it, and then possibly making it easy to reproduce and sell)) 


He is polychromo pencils on kraft card. Bling and backing paper from the stash. I did use some white posca pen on his eyes, but no glossy accents this time. I spent quite a while looking at how real batwings work before colouring this. I like to add a touch of realism. Because of where I was when I coloured this, it was easy to time how long it took, so it took approx 3 hours (with the odd break).


Thanks very much for popping in to visit me today. I love colouring this up, anything furry is just a pleasure to colour and I enjoyed the challenge of the wings! See you soon. Have you joined Witt and Sass on facebook yet? There is a freebie folder for members you know?
