Hold Your Breath, XXIII

You can find the original here.

I just finished this little Spirited Away fanart. I love the movie so much and I've been wanting to draw something for it for a while. Now that I've finished the huuuge book cover I've been working on, I thought it was the perfect time for something smaller. (More wips and final for the book cover are coming. I'm just waiting for approval from the author.)

For some reason, I struggled with this a lot, because I just couldn't get the face in the ink drawing to look like the sketch. I still like Chihiro's face a lot more in the preliminary drawing. It's hard to translate the softness of a child's face into ink. I hope you like it anways!

Thank you :)

Thank you so much! I think you're going to like this month's exclusive print then. :>

Once I get a better camera and a tripod, I want to make step-by-step thingies of the ink drawings, too! :]

Spirited Away is a Top 5 movie for me, and the reason this one disappeared so fast is because I kept obsessively checking your store/my notifications throughout the night after seeing the WIP posted earlier. :> I get what you're saying about the softness, but I don't think that makes the finished piece any less wonderful! You did a beautiful job in a small space of capturing a lot of emotion and her sense of amazement, and she was instantly recognizable from the start.

Teach me master! ;D I can see what you mean. But still think you captured the face nicely :D
