I have two small resident critics staying with us at present so will run this drawing past them later, when I can drag them away from lego, flying airplanes in the garden and avoiding the "North Korea" of one of our neighbour's gardens, eating pizza (which I've been trying to persuade them is Italian cheese on toast), and generally being fun.
There's work to be done on this yet. It's a spare spread for an upcoming book written by Andy Harden. The third in the series. This one may not even be in the latest edition as it is intended for the first book, so that it can go onto Amazon, hopefully will get that done before too long too. This third Henry book has taken me ages to get on with, but I have just three or so drawings to finish and then get them all into the design document and it may then be ready for print. But these days when deadlines don't exist I make no promises not to get distracted yet again.
I'll be adding some more colour on here, as well as mending the join from the scan ( that line just behind Henry ). Pastels help give it that atmospheric feel but are tricky for doing the detailed bits, so my plan is to clean it here and there, and may well do a version where I change it to a summer/spring version, so the leaves will be on the tree!
I'm looking forward to showing the drawings to my resident critics and hearing what they think about them.
