ORIGINAL ARTIST: Frederick-Art I need to emphasize that this is not my drawing. I merely edited it. Go give Frederick a watch and check out his amazing artistic output on Twitter as well at
twitter.com/FrederrickArtAlso, I need to be more observant and check whether or not another artist has a dA page or not before I ask my watchers to go find clues on how to contact them, lol
As my watchers probably now, starting from last summer I was put in a situation where I'm not able to work on my art nearly as much as I'd like to, and working through my remaining commission orders has been a bit of a hassle for a wide variety of reasons. However, my life has recently seen a bit of an upswing on a personal front and I feel more energized and when that is the case, I tend to get a bit more productive than usual. A couple of months ago, when I was getting closer and closer to wrapping up a stripper-themed commission featuring Paulina and Star (too hot for dA, so you can't find it here, sorry; see my latest journal post for more info), I stumbled across Frederick's drawing of Tex Avery's Red Hot Riding Hood, done in the style of
DC Superhero Girls. Being that I'm a big fan of Lauren Faust's art style and I also dabbled a bit within the miniature horse show fan community (though I never went
too far... I think), I was very much pleased with what I saw! The gratuituous ass shot also helped.
I rarely do edits of other artists' works as I'm generally not fond of others editing my own works and I don't want to come off as a hypocrite. However, with this one... I couldn't resist. I've been
itching to draw a Red Hot picture probably close to eight years now but for one reason or another, something's always been holding me back, be it time or my own lack of skills to pull of the
perfect picture of her.
Also, I really wanted to see how the pic would look like as a smart phone wallpaper, although I figured it was probably a better idea to cover her up first. You know, just to be on the safe side.
After that, things sort of got out of hand and I ended up turning the whole thing into a digital painting or airbrushed piece of sorts. I guess? I'm not entirely sure of the terminology. Incredibly enough, this didn't have too big of an effect on my commission output and eventually, I even found myself having a bit of free time while I was waiting for replies from the commissioner regarding any last minute changes which then allowed me to not only tweak the Red pic to weed out any potential mistakes, but also finish a partially-inked
Kick Buttowski piece from 2011 (also too hot for dA; see the afore-mentioned journal for that as well). Sometimes, life is good.
In the end, however, the biggest thanks will obviously go to
Frederick-Art not only for coming up with and drawing the original picture but also for graciously giving me permission to release the edit(s) for you all to see. Enjoy!
