Hayao Miyazaki’s Howl from Howl's Moving Castle...my newest obsession. I love all of Miyazaki's films but this is my newest favorite :D
anyways, i must have been suicidal when I started painting this and am sure glad to be done. not sure how many feathers there are here, but here's got to be several hundred :falls over:
a painted a few to start and then painstakingly coppied, pasted, rotated, skewed and tweaked each feather onto Howl. what a pain! so anyways enjoy everyone.
and if you haven't seen the movie yet, you should go check it out. for once, a love story that ends happily ;)

Oh gracious, this is lovely!! The details on the feathers are just gorgeous - I can believe how long it took to do them! I love the folds on the shirt and jacket, too. Not to mention that you captured the bishonen aspect of Howl perfectly. Now, I must ask - what effect do you use to get the earrings to glow? I've tried to capture 'lighting effects' often in Photo-shop, and I never seem to be able to get them to work properly. I'm sure it's just a mixture of the brush tool and some editing, but it seems to be beyond me . . .

I just saw the movie a month ago, and I love it as well. I've also read the books it was based upon, and I can recommend them both as good additions for the die-hard Howl fan. (He's a bit more obnoxious on them, but no less loveable.)

*continues to stare at the screen* I think you've made my week . . . :D
