What ho! Just dropping by for some opinions and what not. I have a hugely chaotic Drones picture in the works, involving over-turned tables and curtains and snowballs and wood paneling and a cast of thousands! (or, really, a cast of 7...) so rather than bit off more than I could chew by trying to draw it all in one go, I tried my hand at sketching out the chaps that will be headlining in said fanart first. I tried to base Claude, Eustace, Gussie and Barmy off of the the chaps that play them in the series (yes, yes I know that the Pongo I drew looks like the fellow that played Oofy...but I needed a Pongo after reading "Tried in the Furnace" as recommended by ayamemishi and well...*shrug*), and the thoughts of this fine and honorably community would be most obliged, to make sure I got the right spirit down and so forth.

Awww! How cute! Gussie's expression just makes me want to give him a hug! :3 Spot on on Eustace and Claude by the way! :D Great work can't wait to see the finished product! X3

Hurray! Eustace and Claude I was a touch worried about--at first I tried to make them look a bit like Bertie, but that failed miserably so then I just tried to make them look mischievous. Claude, however, seems to have a streak of responsibility in him that Eustace is quite good at overcoming. ;)

The "finished product" is coming along...the hard part right now is drawing a room in perspective that have enough room in it for all seven of them. But let it not be said that perspective ever got the best of this Nella! Merely, it threw a few wrenches in the works. ^_^

Adorable! I can't wait to see the final work!

And I love Barmy!! He's so, huh?

[ink-n-imp.livejournal.com]

hehe, I do so love the first time we meet Barmy at the Drones in the series.

Barmy: I don't think I've ever been to Kensington.
Bingo: Hello Barmy. Of course you have, you're mother lives there.
Barmy: OOOH, THAT Kensington...

Aw! Gussie's so cute. *deep desire to hug him*

[ink-n-imp.livejournal.com]

Hug away, the poor dear is in need of one ^_^

[amaya-kumiko.livejournal.com]

I aprove of this endeavor wholeheartedly. Go forth and produce fan-art young one. :P

On a lighter note, with the look that bertie is giving him it looks like Bingo is grabbing berties ass. Radndom observation. :D

[ink-n-imp.livejournal.com]

Good lord...good lord it does! I was trying to draw Bingo with a soupy/sappy look on his face, but...no, no, he's definitely pinched Bertie's bottom..

[amaya-kumiko.livejournal.com]

I think you must have drawn it that way on purpose. YAY for your sub-conscious!

[gaffsie.livejournal.com]

Wow, you really managed to capture Gussie.

[ink-n-imp.livejournal.com]

Gussie came out positively squeeful. I only hope I can replicate it now.

[shikala-uzuki.livejournal.com]

Cool! Your Claude and Eustace are a lot like how mine came out.

Woot. ^_^

[ink-n-imp.livejournal.com]

heh, really? Will you be posting an Claude and Eustace drawings in the future for me to squee over? O=)

[innocentsmith.livejournal.com]

Hee! Claude and Eustace are great. As are they all, really. (Barmy looks kind of like a lighter-haired Neville Longbottom, somehow...) Your Bertie is always love.

[ink-n-imp.livejournal.com]

Hrum, I can see the resemblance. That just made Barmy more endearing. ^_^

Well, tally ho with the Drones drawing then!

[out-there.livejournal.com]

I like your Claude and Eustace, they look just right, and your Gussie is adorable! I love Barmy's surprised expression, and Bingo... well, Bingo looks like he's ordering from a pretty waitress. And Bertie, as ever, is delightful and looks rightfully worried about his friends.

[ink-n-imp.livejournal.com]

Heh, Bingo has definitely just sighed "Oh, Myrtle" or some other waitress' name, and poor dear Bertie can see the writing on the wall.

Now to get cracking on that drawing!

[ayamemishi.livejournal.com]

Gah, Bingo looks adorable the way you draw him. I certainly wouldn't mind being adored by him! And poor Gussie, he looks so sad. Claude and Eustace look down right evil.

(Hee, I'm glad you read it, and I like your Pongo!)
