Disney castle and princesses (drawing)

Description

Its finally done!

These are the 6 Disney Princesses I had to draw and do the Disney Castle in the centre.

Left to Right: Princess Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) - Snow White - Cinderella - Rapunzel - Princess Jasmine (Aladdin) - Princess Belle (Beauty and the Beast)

It was a pain in the butt to do this, but thank God it was finished before Christmas!

Unfortunately I have to say, I didn't really like how the Princesses are...I don't mean the drawings, I mean how they are in real life and their movies and stuff. As I was drawing each of them I realised their waists are seriously abnormally tiny and their boobs stick out a lot. Really bad role-modelling for young girls I would say. So as I drew them I made them more portioned out correctly, and I felt terrible drawing them for my Step-sister's 6 or 7 year old niece and these characters are meant to be role-models?

Well, that's my opinion anyway. It was just something I learnt about as I started this project. You learn something new every day!

I think the best one I drew would be Princess Belle from Beauty and the Beast, the others look okay but this one came out to me as the better one. So I signed my name at the bottom of her dress :L

Well here's a recap of why I did this:

My step-sister has seen my drawings that I had posted on Facebook (all the drawings I've done recently are all uploaded on deviantArt) and she asked me to do a canvas painting for her niece as a Christmas present. So I thought okay sure, why not?

6 Princesses and the Disney Castle.

So I bought a canvas and easel and paint, but drawing with pencil first was really hard, and the canvas was too small. So I told her I have to do it on card and in pencils. So it's A2 size. And then she asked me if I can put her niece in there! I was like huh?! Sorry number 1. I can't draw real life people and 2. there's no room. So yeah I was not going to draw her niece in there...

So in this whole thing is pencil for all the outlines of the characters and castle, coloured pencil for the Princesses, watercolour for a background effect (and so it wouldn't look too boring) and acrylic paint for the castle. The castle is actually really small and all the paint brushes I bought were too thick sized, so I had to use a tiny gel eye-liner brush to do the castle (I don't use it anymore, don't worry!).

And this is the result! And I'm not gonna draw anymore till after the New Year, too much stress I had over this project :L

Hope you all like this! :D x
