I wanted to try drawing another of one of the winter fairies from this amazing film and (apart from Periwinkle) Gliss is probably my favourite. The screen shot I used as a reference for this drawing also has Gliss's friend Spike on, so (if I can do a good enough drawing) I'm hoping to add Spike to the left of Gliss for you in the not too distant future. I'm pleased with how this turned out. I have used 'auto levels' to boost the contrast. Hope you like this. ^^

Thank you for favouriting this drawing and for your thoughtful comments and suggestions. I agree that the strands in her wings have come out quite heavy, but in this case I don't think I mind since it helps make the wings more noticeable. (In the original screenshot the wings are transparent with soft-edged, white strands. Also there are frosty ferns behind them which make them even harder to distinguish!) ^^
This is a fantastic shading job with graphite, so I can understand why you needed to use levels to help make the picture show more. It must have been difficult with the wings though. Some of the strands do also come out alittle to sharp. Don't be afraid to play with the levels, contrast, and hue a bit. You maybe pleased with the effects.
Keep up the great work!
