gossTitle: Who we would be (you used to know)
Artist:goss
Rating: G
Fandom: Guardian
Characters: Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan
Content Notes: Created for Challenge #24: Poetry Illustration. This was directly inspired bychina_shop's excellent Guardian fan-poetry things you used to know. This piece was painted with a combination of watercolours and acrylics.
Sketching out these characters' facial feature right was a real challenge, especially the eyes and mouth, and then overlaying it with the watercolour after felt like walking a tightrope act. :b To get the galaxy effect, I found a whole bunch of useful tutorials on YouTube on how to go about painting one with watercolours. I tried my hand at it and am satisfied with the overall effect. :)
