Artist's Comments

Stampy was :iconideya-freak:'s white lab. His favorite toy was a pink football. For my end of our art trade, I drew Stampy as if he were in an illuminate manuscript.

The gold areas that appear flat, like Stampy's collar, are actually a metallic gold pen.

*cries* Omg you finished it!

I'm actually in tears right now! You made it look just like him, and you even included his fave toy. The picture border is just breath taking, and the back ground is doggy heaven! *hopes he's in doggy heaven that looks exactly like this picture*

Thank you so much! Thank youthankyouthankyou! This ment so much to me, and it makes me uber happy I can't even begin to explain all the lovelyness of this picture! I wish I could have made my half as gorgeous! The bunny and the parrot are so nice too, and the bone trees make me laugh; my dad used to always go on about dog bones for our Stampy.

*hugs* Thank you so much!!!

I'm glad you like it so much :D I was hoping to get close to what he looked like. The scanner really didn't do the border justice....if you hold it in the light, the gold is actually shiny. If you want (I know it's awkward in an online setting) I can send this picture to you sometime.

Thanks :) The border was really tricky on this one, but I'm happy with the result. I've been inspired by illuminated manuscripts ever since I saw them in the Getty. This is my first actual attempt at one, though.

I'll have to ask sometime!^^ Maybe someday, since I showed my mom the pic and she stopped dead for a few seconds; I'm sure she'll want it too.
