your paintings aren't defined enough and your lineart isn't too sturdy either but it's pretty decent overall

the rocks on the other side of the lake/river in the first picture don't fit in at all but i like the one with the bear and the rolling hills

hattie · February 7, 2012 02:29 AM

well they're only sketches, nothing here is finished

Dear is an imaginary friend I had when I was younger. He had one antler and sawed the other one off in a dream I had. He usually isn't a very unhappy guy, this picture is of him after he met this chick named Willow, another imaginary friend I had that was a beautiful woman who could turn herself into a wood statue. Well she didn't really turn herself into one, but she'd walk about five steps then freeze into a wooden sculpture against her will. Anyways it turns out she was a power hungry bitch and ended up brainwashing Dear. I had a lot of weird dreams about them which I kinda mashed into a plot. Their whole story line together is actually pretty tear-jerking. The end of them came when I had one dream where Dear was trying to escape some police or something because Willow and him were trying to take over the world (and in this world Willow was literally the only attractive woman left on earth because she killed anyone more attractive than her. Actually Willow has a really horrifying back story that I'll go into later (maybe). Anyways,) and Dear ran into this big field, and at this point in their lives Dear absolutely hated Willow and she was completely in love with him (at first it was vice versa. though she was more of a mother figure for him. but he banged her a lot.) and he ends up being blown up. Then Willow confronts her ghost in a mirror after she's devastated from seeing her love being torn apart in front of her and ends up killing herself I think. Either the ghost in the mirror taunts her until she kills herself or the ghost in the mirror actually kills her. I forget which, but anyways, I'll make it a comic or something.

Willow used to live in the mirror until she met a little girl around 14 years old, who had a lot of self loathing problems, and seduced her and manipulated her until she took over her body and left the girl in the mirror to grow old. So in the end the girl in the mirror is old and frail and looks hideous.

also willow's leg in that picture is horrible and i tried to fix it and failed and now i refuse to keep trying.

good drawings.

Crabarms · February 27, 2012 05:00 AM

I like that they are based on dreams/imagination. Don't know much about Dear but I am interested if there is anything more to the antlers. Willow must of had quite a bit of influence to make him that miserable.

hattie · February 27, 2012 05:18 AM

There is actually. Before he first met Willow he killed a bunch of teenagers with his sawed off antler 'accidentally'.
He's supposed to be a different species of people that live on a separate continent, and his whole family hated him because he didn't have fawn legs like them, only the antlers. So when he immigrated to America, some teenagers kidnapped him as a joke and were being racist so out of self defense and fear he ended up killing them. The public was outraged by it, but Willow, who was famously beautiful, rich, and powerful at this point saw him as someone she could use to her advantage so she saved him and ran a campaign to keep him out of jail.

I really like your style hattie! I especially like the picture of the monsters flying on bikes. I'd wear that on a shirt :3

hattie · February 28, 2012 10:39 PM

oh thanks!
i was actually wondering whether I should try and put it up on threadless or something to make some extra cash.
