A: Old Boy, Bowser

***********************************************

Well this came out okay, I think. Not exacty like him, but more or less. And I had a ton of fun doing it!! ... With the limited colours I had.

No seriously, I enjoyed it. And my folks seem quite proud of it, and funny enough, it was just meant as a practice pic as I'm not too experienced with soft pastels. I'm currently debating on my next pic: it's an A4 sized sketch so far of both my doggies, Bowser and Blaze, and I ws planning to do them in pastels to, but Michelle ( ~MichelleHammanWright ) says it's better as a pencil sketch.... So I dunno, that's where this came from. I wanted to try out the pastels anyway, since the colours would bring out my dogs better and make them look more alive. ^^ But yeah, the inexperience was holding me back. So I just did Bowser's head and this is the result.

I have the Bathurst Show coming up where I'm displaying a few things, and this is one of my two for the Animal Study. So it needs to look 100%... I'm nervous.

came in 2nd Animal Catagory
