Web Warriors - Iron Fist

Apparently there is a cartoon called Spiderman Web Warriors, with a character called Iron Fist.  You'd have thought that anything coming under the Spiderman franchise would have some merchandise, especially around Christmas but it would seem not.  So rather than have their little girl sorely disappointed this year, a thoughtful mum and dad asked if I could re-create Iron Fist in wool.  So I did.  I'm sure given a bit more time I could tweak this pattern further, but I think he will pass muster under the Christmas tree.

Savvi & Blue

 Here are the pair of greyhounds I've been working on the past couple of weeks.  This has been executed in Derwent Drawing Pencils on watercolour paper for a change.  I'm not sure I would use watercolour paper again - the tooth was quite rough and I had trouble getting smooth lines at times. Perhaps smooth paper would have been better!  However, it was good to be able to paint the background I wanted and have the white of the paper shine through in certain places.

This completes the Christmas commissions for the time being - I'm free if you would like to grab me!

Another Christmas commission currently on the needles is this gentleman - Iron Fist from Spiderman Web Warriors apparently. I'm having to design this as I go along and thankfully it is going well, because I really don't have the time for it to go wrong.  It's been a lot of fun actually - I'm very proud of the body shaping I have achieved - wait until you see the feet!
