The Hunger Games: Finished illustration Nr.3

I'm not sure if I post the fourth illustration, so this is the last one for now:

The scene with the Tracker Jacker nest:

I wanted to post some text passages from the book to the illustrations, but I always forget the book at home.

The Hunger Games: Finished illustration Nr.2

This is the scene when finally Katniss finds a watersource during the games.


I'm having trouble withe the color of the human skin underwater and I'm not satisfied with it here. :/ It's too...grayish

I did a lot of sketches...even more than this sheet of paper, because I couldn't get it right for a long time.

The Hunger Games: Finished illustration Nr.1

Last Semeser I did 4 illustrations of the First book of the triology "The Hunger Games". I mostly drew Katniss for some weird reason... I tried to draw things that i have trouble with like scenes in the dark and underwater, but this first one is just the scene when Katniss and Prim harvest all those dandelions (i know the don't look like dandelions but i wanted to give them a kind of futuristic look.) It was really weird to draw them so skinny, because they hadn't eaten in a long time. Oh and I think I drew both of them a bit too old.

I guess I will never do the technique again, which i used here, but it was interesting to play around with it.

Some portraits from the International Skizzenfestival Stralsund

During the 10 days I tried to do some watercolorportraits of fellow artists. I rarely used watercolor before, but i think they turned out quite nice.


The problem with drawing artist at the Skizzenfestival: They are all looking down when they draw too.
