Artist's Comments

Here it is, my 100th deviation. *pauses for applause and only hears crickets* ah well.

James and the Giant Peach is on e of my favorite Roald Dahl books. I started work on this fanart back in with sketches and some colored characters but when I saw that my next deviation was going to be my 100th I decided to finish this one. Actually I started from scratch. ^^; I took all the sketches and inked them in illustrator, block colored in Photoshop and then really put a lot of Corel Painter time into it. All in all I'd say I put in at least 12 -16 hours into this.

I'll post some detail shots soon. I am especially proud of Mrs Ladybug's sweater, all the cabling and knitting stuff was painted, and Mr. Earthworm.

[edit]

I decided to make the file a bit bigger so you can see the details a bit better.

Isn't the grasshopper supposed to have 6 appendages? *tease tease*

It's adorable Weedy. So bug-ful and little boy cuteness. Ok I'm obviously tired and make no sense.
