Artist's Comments

Just my vision of the character from Victor Hugo's "hunchback of Notre Dame". This is not supposed to be the Esmeralda of the Disney movie, though I certainly was influenced.

The Disney movie was actually the movie that triggered everything for me, artistically speaking. I owe a lot to the artbook, which was my main "teacher" and remains my biggest influence.

Anyway, I have other drawings in store, but I am back for only two days, then I won't have internet again for two or three weeks (still working in the mountains on my comic book).

Thanks a whole lot to all you people who watch, comment and fave my stuff! :boogie:

Done with pencil, colored in photoshop CS3 and using textures (don't remember where that one came from, though, sorry!!)

Oh that's... really beautiful. Personally I prefer this design to the disney one *killed*, just because it has more of the gypsy FEEL to it. That's the thing that drove me nuts with the disney one, that it didn't *feel* like any romanian I'd ever seen, and it felt too... contrived? But this has a beautiful natural feel to it. Like you know that every step she takes is going to be accompanied by the subtle jingle of bells and coins (pure hell if you're trying to silently sneak away from the soldiers), and all the little details just... fit. Nice work.

*babbles*

How blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads, to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly, and brings nothing but sweet dreams.
