Fan Art: Once Upon a Time

One of my favorite TV shows is abc's Once Upon a Time, and my favorite character is Rumplestiltskin.
I used online reference photos to draw the dagger featured in the show that belongs to the "Dark One" - Rumplestiltskin. I wanted to draw this because I really like the design of the blade and thought it would be fun to draw.

All credit for the original thought/design behind the images related to Rumplestiltskin goes to the creators of the show.

Unicorn Valley

Another unicorn, this time in mixed media: Pencil, Colored Pencil, Watercolor Paint.
Dimensions: 8.5''x11''
The only things I don't like about this picture are the yellow flowers. They were supposed to be golden rods, but they ended up looking more like weird trees or something. However, I am happy with how the unicorn turned out, and that's what counts!
Sorry about the watermark.

Revised Unicorn Drawing

I recently (May 3, 2012) decided to revise a drawing that I did in 2010. Below you can see some pictures of the new version as well as a picture of the old version at the end.
This drawing was done in Derwent graphite pencils, and the dimensions are 8.5'' x 11''. The revision includes some reshaping around the muzzle, and a lot more shading and blending of tones. I added more dark shadows and highlights where appropriate.
Revising an old piece is always difficult for me, because I become attached to my creations and I am afraid of ruining them by attempting to change them. However, I am very pleased with how this drawing turned out and now I feel that it is complete.
Enjoy!
