Newt Scamander Quote And Update.

Well hello everybody! Welcome back to yet another art blog. So today I’m basically showing you some drawings and telling you all what I have been up to lately.

So first off, the Newt Scamander quote. Ya know, you favorite character(well... maybe for some) surrounded with one of my favorite quotes and a couple of creatures. Incase you can’t read the writing it says:

“My philosophy is: that worrying means you suffer twice”

-Newt Scamander

Now to explain why I drew this, so ever since December 26, of 2019 I started a book project. So I hope some of you guys know about the Fantastic Beasts screen play that J.K. Rowling wrote. I got book 1 and 2 for Christmas. And I came up with a really cool idea that on each page of the book I draw the scene from the movie. Like for example: page #1 we get a glimpse of Grindelwald in the first movie

And I draw that scene in the book it’s self! So I have been doing this for a couple of months now, and I’m on page #71 and this project should take me about 9 months to do. Fun isn’t? Is is, trust me. And I’m drawing a page a day if your wondering how I am going to get this done. So I’m basically going to do the same to book 2, and hopefully the same to the other books that are coming out soon. Yes, it is a pretty large project but I quite enjoy it. Back to the quote drawing. So before the book itself starts there are a couple of blank pages I had another idea that on the first black page I draw the movie poster of the first movie(which you’ll see soon on another update) and a couple of pages later... another blank page! So I draw a cool quote by a character, and then the screen play begins... And there are 280 pages in this book one so ya(... I hope Rowling does not make a 500 page screenplay....)

And on the page one picture I showed you I know there are not any progress pictures, when I started this I was not sure wether I want to post it or not and I don’t want to bombard the whole amino with just drawings from this project. So your welcome. In later updates I’ll show you guys pictures of the drawings in the book, just a few, not a lot(unless there are some of my favorite pages I want to share with you). And they also won’t have progress pictures, but the proof I have is my signature that is on the bottom right. But! Anyways that is all I want to say, so enjoy these pictures I took from my book project:

Also I forgot to mention, I outline the drawings in a brown outline pen(micron) because before I started all this I noticed if I outlined the drawings in black it would be harder to read, and I want this book to still be readable. And I use color pencils because the markers I use bleed through the paper, and I go back and use a tissue to smudge the drawings, I don’t know why but I do it anyways. But it also makes the Black a bit lighter and easier to read. Also I cover the pages in Mode Podge to protect the drawings from smudging.

Well I hope you all like this blog! And I’ll see you guys later.
