slytherin henna + Cocktalking

Happiness is a warm henna tube - I have my first customer!

Jet was going for a hogswartian-themed party, and in coming up with a mythological creature, i decided to go maya-egyptian for her and do a quetzlcoatl design to embrace her hand. First decorating her palm and fingers, then on to the snake bracelet:

The hardest part was actually to do the tendrils around her fingers, as (dammnit) she kept on laughing and moving around due to some idiot who was there as well cracking jokes. It got smeared a few times and had to be redone again.

Spraying the henna to seal it. Frowning shows frustration in trying to get her to BE STILL. It was on for most of the time. And eventually, the final product emerges.

The full dorsal view of hennasque and snake bracelet:

In the end i got too tired to draw the quetzlcoatl wings; i was kinda worried about the class i was supposed to be in too. I think its fine anyway, she'll go perfectly fine with the Slytherin parseltongue club =D.

Closeup on hennasque, dorsal:

Thin penmarks visible; they'll go away fast while the henna stays.

Closeup on hennasque, ventral:

Note how the tendrils on fingers fit together to form lines on both ventral and dorsal sides.

And the final pose:

Ssssspectacular! And she promptly went for shopping - gah. Jet is one who moves around so much that the henna was peeling off within 20 min, even after the spary-seal. I just hope it dosent come out blotched... I did warn her...

Oh well, im satisfied with the outcome, anyway.

Alright. Meat is my canvas. Next?

After that was the HCAP closing dinner - they'd invited Colin Goh of talkingcock.com for a dialogue. The guy's a natural comic. I bought a CD off him, and managed to get his snapshot:

So did Lia and Ab:

And of course a shot with the wonderful girls of HCAP. that's Eva n Vic to the left:
