The Witch


This pencil sketch that was scanned and colored in using Photoshop, depicts a 1940's style witch from the Brother's Grimm fairy tale, Jorinda and Joringle. I modeled the outfit from Mirna Loy's character Nora from "Shadow of the Thin Man."

Craig! This one is super cool. I'd love to see more characters in this style.

She's hilarious and scary. That windy little weapon has more impact than an machete. Awesome.

Great character. That twisty pit of metal is so sinster looking. I like the skull and cross bones clasp on her purse. It's a nice touch.

Man, this is awesome.

I'm also really impressed with the gouache painting in your moleskine. As fun as it is to say, I have never been able to make that stuff work for me.
