Henna Tattoo

I always wanted to have a real tattoo, but sadly they are quite expensive and you can't really erase it. So last year when I went to Sri lanka I discovered henna tattoos. It's a paste with which you can draw a tattoo on your arm, which will go away in a few weeks. If you go to Dubay or any Asiatic city, you can usually buy little cones for less than two pounds. So here are a few examples of what I did. Drawing on your arm is actually harder than it seems, but it's so much fun !! Also if you want your henna tattoo to last longer just mix honey and lemon together. It smells amazing and your tattoo will last forever. Good luck :)




 That's the honey and lemon paste. Also I forgot to mention it, but if you want to purchase henna go on amzone. And be careful with black henna since it can contain ink which is bad for your skin. And I would not recommend drawing your tattoo if you're not particularly good at drawing, since it might look like a 6 years old drawing finally...

Some new comic book pages :)

Hey, so here are a few of my latest comic book pages. I mainly did them because I was really bored, so they aren't that great, but I still really wanted to share them on my blog. I also tried a lot of different colouring techniques, but honestly I suck at colouring and none of them were a success....

 * Here's the first page when it's still at the pencil stage : *



I didn't finish these two pages, but here I inked the two first cases. 



 I tried out some colouring techniques. Here I used aquarel without inking the panel. I actually quite like the result, however this took me so long that I will probably continue to colour my pages on my computer...









   And here's a page I did really quickly (20 minutes or something like that). I mainly wanted to try out a few new techniques. I also coloured it, but it was a total disaster, since, like I said I'm not a really good colourist and painting an evening sky was more difficult than I expected.Oh and this page is supposed to be inspired by the manga NANA in case any of you read it
