:iconcrayonplz::iconcrayonplz::iconcrayonplz: The Crayon Creation Challenge :iconcrayonplz::iconcrayonplz::iconcrayonplz:

So, I had a brainwave/moment of madness and though it might be fun to try and create something using a box of kids crayons. Turns out it really is a lot of fun, if you overlook all the waxy bits of crayon everywhere and that it makes clumpy waxy bits on the drawing :D

So, I'm sure lots of you could do very much better than I have, if you want to have a go at The CCC, the details are on the poll on my front page, anyone can join, the more the merrier! If you win, I'll inflict you with one of my ATC drawings (not crayon!) and will feature everyone who takes part :la:

Go grab some crayons and be a big kid again :happybounce:

Materials:
Black Paper
Crayola Crayons
Time: 2 hours
Ref: based on this gorgeous reference I hope to do this one more justice in graphite in the future too :)

Thanks for having a look :heart:

The crayons added a very interesting texture to the skin. To me it makes it look like a scifi type alien/person hybrid or an anthro human. It definietly wasn't easy to achieve the realistic look you did using only crayons and you managed to give them a pastel look. I would love to see you draw this again in pencil:heart:

:giggle: They are awful things, they really are, but it was loads of fun too. She does looks a bit alienish for sure :nod:

I think I should definitely try to do her most justice in graphite sometime, thank you :hug:
