I've been working on that Quirky Lion... and he is moments away from being finished...
First I added some button eyes:
Then some nostrils and a raggedy mane:
And of course a tail:
But there was something that I just WASN'T loving about him...
It took me some time, but eventually I figured that the problem is the face...
The detail of the face is kind of getting lost in amongst the mane - so I needed something to make it POP some more, and figured the face would look better against a plain light coloured background.
I love this effect...
Work in slip stitch through the back loops only, using a contrasting colour:
And see how clever it looks when you turn it over:
Now to add the eyes and nostrils...
And stitch the new face to the lion...
I'll try and get some finished photos to share tomorrow!
