IF: Faded

Now that spring semester is finished, I'm trying to get back into the habit of doing a weekly Illustration Friday (even though for me it's more like every other week!) This weeks theme is Faded, which made me think of vintage photographs (maybe it's because of my new obsession of the early 20th century...or maybe it's because I went antique shopping last weekend) , either way I'm pretty happy with the results. 

Downton Abbey Doodles part 2

I think I may be suffering from a serious case of Downton Abbey withdrawal syndrome (January! Come faster!).  And so while looking at some behind the scenes photo's of season 3 I found this http://downtonline.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=314&pid=22883#top_display_media, and had to base a drawing off of it, because Thomas and Daisy are two of my favorite characters (William was my third  favorite :(  )

Yeah I know Thomas is being way out of character here, but it took me like 5 times to get his face just right. 

I may not have another post for a while, so please "bear with me" : P. 

Quick update

I have been trying to practice drawing more building exteriors and interiors lately (but mostly exteriors) because I feel that that is a real weak point for me, and is a pretty important skill. So I went looking for images of interesting buildings to practice off of, and came across a cool photo of the temple of Isis. 

And as a bonus! Here are some Legend of Korra doodles: Mako and his scarf

And the Korra crew in 1920's fashion, with an added sepia tone hue and saturation adjustment to make it look like an old photograph (I have nicknamed the Legend of Korra 1920's Avatar)
