Hi everyone, it's been a while :)

Something entirely different from my other illustrations for a change; because about a month ago I started getting inspiration for a children's story that grew pretty quickly once I started thinking about it full-on. I digged up my paper and pencils, and started drawing untill the feel of the story I wanted to tell came together on paper. This resulted in the birth of Nicci, a little girl who is a bit different from all the other boys and girls of her age, and who get's pulled into an adventure when, one night, she sees a falling star and she decides she wants to find it.

The line-art was first drawn by hand, then vectored, and colored/painted to finish it in Photoshop.

This 'teaser' is the first illustration I've fully finished, but the story is coming together pretty nicely as I'm writing it whenever I have the time, as do the concepts for the images that will go along with it :)

Well, I hope you all like it! Thanks for looking as always ~ :hug: Kim
