Artist's Comments

Another Princess/Frog fan-art!
I'm heaving SO MUCH fun with this movie...


This simple looking drawing took me FOREVER! Like 4 days. And why?! cause I couldn't figure out what to do with it! I drew Tiana and Naveen as a sketch, then cleaned them up, and coloured them... you know the drill right?! But once it was done - right after my favourite part of colouring the art-line (I just love it!!!) and adding the little extra stuff - Tiana's glitters and blush, I just didn't know what to do next!

I made SO MANY versions of this one with the movie logo/title, and without it, with a frame or not, one time I wrote in the sky "Kissing would be nice, Yes?!" (Navven phrase from the trailer) and I liked it, but I couldn't find the right font for that - I guess that's how it is when you have 3500 fonts in your folder!!! Arrrggghhhaaa... It was frustrating really.

Then I just decided I'll leave it at that, as I wanted to upload it already, and well, I kinda like it like that. It keeps the 2D movie feeling and I LOVE that.

Anyway, I'm sure you know there will be more to come from in terms of Princess/Frog fan arts right?! I hear you all going "Like Duh?! Tell us something we don't know?!" :giggle:

Hope you'll like it!
Have a Great Day Everyone!

Your next Disney Heroes portrait should be Naveen.
As a frog.

Seriously though, this is lovely. I envy you being able to pull off the cartoon style and have it look like it's entirely official artwork!

Ha-ha, you're really something, you know --- I thought this was a screen shot or something from the trailer :D How you do it I'll never know...

I wanted to keep it like in the movie, where the light comes from the room behind the balcony... I would've worked better if I would have drawn the whole background but U just didn't had the power to do it... I was really though of as a bigger drawing, but as I said, it took to much time so I had to leave it as it is before you. Maybe I'll come back to it again, when I won't be so busy.

Work is driving me insane! I slept only an hour today! I gotta answer to so many E-mails, - yours included. Hopefully I'll get to it by the end of the weekend. :hug:
