Fanart for "Educational Tour" (part 5)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Hullo!

For some time now I've been admiring the Educational Tour-project from afar, and now I'd like to come forward with some fanart I've made from the latest part of the story (Mishap in Michigan).



Texts on the pictures are by storyfanand have nothing to do with me.



This was supposed to be an experiment on technique and such, but then I grew to love that bowtie so much that I just couldn't delete the poor girl.




Piano playing. Grr.

Wow, they're absolutely gorgeous!

[ironicbees.livejournal.com]

Beautifully done! :)

[charie-caphine.livejournal.com]

Love your style; the childe of doom is so illustratively wacky!
Jeeves seems somehow too happily serene (he's on stage, and rather against his will), but Bertie's adoring expression is incredible.

[who-is-small.livejournal.com]

It is so lovely! God, I cannot even be as angry with the kid as I have been until now. I am sorry, but I am friending you.

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm glad you liked them :)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thanks!
You're right about the expression, but I just make excuses and say that secretly he enjoys the attention once he starts playing :')

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :)
And thank you for friending too!

[beeb-almighty.livejournal.com]

Very lovely! And the Evil Child is quite cute in her hopped-up-on-pixie-stix way.

[mxdp.livejournal.com]

Okay, I absolutely adore the fact that Jeeves plays with two fingers while Bertie looks far more experienced. Gah. So lovely. *praises* Kid is a cute devil, unfortunately ;)

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

I am honored. I really am. These are both lovely. I pictured Evelyn exactly like this, a happy terror who has no idea of the trouble she's about to cause. Sort of like a Bobbie Wickham in training.

And Jeeves and Wooster at the piano? That's how I envision them. You've done a beautiful job, and I hope you'll allow niektete to put these in the book.

I love Bertie's little sidelong glance at Jeeves. These are marvelous.

(Also, what's the medium? Inkwash? Water-soluble graphite?)

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

Please tell me there will be more :D

[pro-prodigy.livejournal.com]

Wow, the little girl is so well drawn that i almost not hate her for being an annoying twit and falling over the railing. Then again, kids just do that, no malice intended. Her cuteness is zapping annoyance at her actions.

Both very nice. Thumbs up for maintaining the shape and folds of the clothes while at a side angle. Very nice.

<3! The girl's shadow is truly awesome!

[hephaistia.livejournal.com]

Lovely! This girl looks much less terrible than the one in the story....... And how sweet J and B look, playing piano together..... I love piano duet pictures!

May I follow Who_is_small's example and friend you?

[janeturenne.livejournal.com]

Aww, these are beautiful--and your choice of a fic to illustrate was an entirely worthy one :)

[emeraldreeve.livejournal.com]

Delightful!

[toodlepipsigner.livejournal.com]

Miaow! Lovely! Excellent shading.

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Heh, thanks! The ones who are the cutest are also the most evil, I've noticed. B)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you! The writing was so superb that I really hadn't any choice but to draw something from it ;)

These are free for use (I'd be delighted), but on the other hand there isn't any obligation. :)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

They are made with a regular HB pencil and an inkwash on the top of that + a touch of Photoshop. I also used a tad of white gel pen on the girl.

[firtavain.livejournal.com]

You have a wonderful drawing style. :)

[sunsetsinthewes.livejournal.com]

Oh these are beautiful-- just marvelous! Great work, really. I especially love the second.

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :D

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

We'll see, we'll see.. B)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thank you!
I never really thought that the girl was being evil.. I mean, she was behaving just like most of children do. Like I did, anyway :')

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Heh, thanks! :)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I have always thought that there is something utterly attractive in piano playing..

Of course you can, I'd be delighted :)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thank you! You're right about the fic - it's truly marvelous :)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you think so! :)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

*purr*, thank you!

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :)

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the lovely compliment, and I'm sure these drawings will make a lovely addition to the book.

[lady529.livejournal.com]

These are fab <3

Although (and I hate myself slightly for saying this), shouldn't Bertie and Jeeves be sitting in each other's place if Bertie's playing the melody..? I know, I know, you make beautiful drawings, and I complain. They are lovely though, I'd love to be able to shade faces like you do : )

The Lady 529

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

*stares the picture*
..Oh damn, you're right!! That never occurred to me.. I just thought about the composition and such and totally neglected the practical matters. Gosh I can be stupid sometimes -.-

Thank you so much for pointing that out, I'll be more accurate in the future! :')

[lady529.livejournal.com]

I feel so rubbish for pointing it out, esp. when the drawing is so gorgeous *insert puppy eyes here*

Comp. is lovely though, can't fault you on anything there <3 And where did you learn to shade faces like that? That's one thing I always strike out on, I make people look like they weigh either 35st or 5st..

The Lady 529

[niektete.livejournal.com]

They will indeed! With the artist's permission, these will be entered into the book, if only I can find out how to adjust the page size. But I will; they're so wonderful!

[niektete.livejournal.com]

They are utterly gorgeous! (and pink and moist and sticky and fluffy etc) Do we really have your permission to put them in the book? Oh, that would be wonderful! :D

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

Thank you! And yes, you have my permission ^^

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

Shall I change the story to match your picture? That could be easily done.

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

No no no, you won't change a thing from your awesome text! It's just fanart, anyway. But if it's bothering you I can do another version where the composition is right ^^

(I'll probably do it anyway, if the pic is gonna go to the book)

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

The way you drew your picture didn't bother me in the least. I'm no musician so I wouldn't have known the difference anyway. I don't mind changing the story to match because I don't know if you can get that wonderful expression on Bertie's face if you put him on the other side. Well, I suppose you can if I think about it for a minute. But I'll do whatever's easier. For me it's just a matter of a few words.

[muuskanuikkunen.livejournal.com]

I'll make the correct version, and you can decide which one you like better ^^

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

You are so kind. And I do wish I could draw. I'm great at stick figures, but that's about it.
