Just trying something new, after my friend El and I had a discussion a while ago about fun things to do with blank sketchbooks LOL
So I tried my hand at decorating a small sketchbook with some minor relief:
http://sunhawk.deviantart.com/art/Mushroom-Sketchbook-69133355
I picked mushrooms because I like forest scenes and mushrooms in particular as a decorative motif, and I also just kinda picked the first thing that came to mind since I had my nature guidebook nearby for reference heh heh
I currently have this book priced at $60, is that insane? I wish I could price it cheaper but that’s the honest bare-bones price I can do for the work and the materials used including the blank sketchbook @_@ I have another sketchbook I did, of a red dragon, but I don’t have a recent picture of it yet so that’ll have to be posted later on ^_^
ETA: And here’s a picture of the red dragon / firedrake sketchbook I did, I wish there was a better way to capture how it glows LOL

November 16, 2007 at 10:49 am #637182I like it. I would put it on display and never use it.
November 16, 2007 at 12:38 pm #637183Very cool. I love mushrooms! 😀 😀

Thanks! I think they are awesome! Not to eat though, for me anyway heh heh

November 21, 2007 at 6:31 am #637189The firedrake one is neat too, but I still life the mushrooms better. 😛

I am very happy with how the scales came out, I wanted to do something a little more abstracted 😀
January 29, 2008 at 7:02 am #637192Nice! Love the colors.

Thank you! ^_^ I think they are nicely rich and interesting, not my normal colours (well the green maybe heh heh)
