More 100% traditional art for possible exhibit/sale at Confuzzled, if I can get the time off work to go. Watercolour paint, watercolour pencils and waterproof black ink. A4 sized.
Here we have an anthro female raggiana bird of paradise with male plumage. I'm not sure if she's a hermaphrodite or a bit of a cross-dressing tomboy or a lesbian who likes to wear dude plumage. I just thought it would look pretty :)
Once I'd coloured it, it reminded me of the Miss Jupiter pin-up painting on the side of the US bomber from 'The Watchmen' film's intro. And then Train's 'Drops of Jupiter' song. I was going to call her 'Madam Butterfly' because of how she is holding her wings, but the jupiter reference goes with her colours and her larger-than-life, bold and balshy 'I'mma dress like a dude and work it like a boss' personality. So Miss Jupiter it is. Obviously I am not Alan Moore, I don't own the character Miss Jupiter from The Watchmen graphic novel or film adaptation, nor would I pretend to. I'm just borrowing the name for a painting.
Also, I remember why I've been doing digital colouring on my commissions previously. Trying to clean up this digital image to get it to look like the real original hard copy has been a nightmare. I don't know what the colour yellow did to scanners to warrant this kind of mutilation!
