Knocked this little picure up in Paint Shop Pro this evening while bored... i know its not as good as some of the amazing work I have seen. Also I have not yet got a graphics tablet so drawing via mouse is kind tricky and resiszing kinds make the image look a bit too blocky. I inadvertantly saved a resized image over the 1st drawing so had to scale up and soften the lines and redo the tail alltogether, thus the difference between my avatar and the current image. The 2nd tail I am happier with as it looks like it motion. it needs a bit of cleaning up to make it better, when i get time  Anyway I had an image in my head of Lisa as a shooting star.... may seem a bit mad but hey   Next while I could not sleep I was watching simpsons on my TV and came across a strange idea of Lisa trapped inside the TV.... I do not know what i have been drnking tonight. So i spent the last couple of house knocking up a redition of my LCD HDTV and re-drew a picture of Lisa using a reference picture of lisa looking scared. I added the hands on pressing against the glass of the TV screen after as i thought I would add something to the picture. http://www.ejnmedia.co.uk/simpsons/lisatv.png (remember to zoom in using IE or Mozilla as the image looks distorted when both browsers rescale. I hope you all like, any comments or suggestions welcome. Any ideas also welcome. These are my 1st two computer drawings, i usually go graphics and logo work.

EmpethreeWelcome! Nice to see more art here.  The first picture is nice, interesting idea! (Don't remember anything similar being drawn in the past.) The second picture is a bit scary but original. Dunno why Lisa looks so scared, I hope that's not because of something she saw on this side of the screen.  And maybe it's not as good as some drawings here, but it's still very good! So keep it up, you have a nice start.

Yes, it's indeed always nice see new art here.  The first pic is very imaginative. I wonder why nobody else has ever drawn something like that. Anyway, the idea is very nice, but Lisa is a bit fuzzy. Maybe you could redo it sometime. The second pic looks good and the idea is interesting. The Simpsons have been stuck inside the TV for 2 decades and they haven't cared about it until now. DagdamorMaybe she saw you on the outside?

You've got some cute pics there.  The second one is a little off-model, but it's still good. The first one was, as Suusje said, very original. Keep up the good work!

Well I have been at it again, done a new picture for tonight, Using some tips given to me by Suusje. His thread on Grabpics is great for the newbie to this type of drawing. Thanks for sending me the link  Again I have taken inspiration from looking at my TV. My TV is also my desktop, which I use the Vista "Real Bliss" Wallpaper., looking at the picture it struck me, a little bank and a good view for Lis to point at, I know she loves nature  Face is based on a grab pic and rest was customised from the same pic. Done in Flash 8 and Paint Shop Pro 7 for the shading and the little noticed grass around her feet  I hope you like, these are wallpaper sized images, feel free to use them on your desktop if you so desire  I have also uploaded to my site in both .png and .bmp formats http://www.ejnmedia.co.uk/simpsons/lisablissw2.pnghttp://www.ejnmedia.co.uk/simpsons/lisablissw2.bmp

EmpethreeI do like! Simple, but nice. Lisa is like showing us how the best places on Earth should look like.  I wouldn't recommend Lisa to try to swim in that river though, mountain rivers tend to be damn cold. Again, probably simple technically, but still impressive picture. Nicely done, keep it up

Nice picture! I like her pose.  You've also picked a nice background for this one. It fits together really well. Too bad you haven't drawn her right eye with the oval tool. But overall it's a nice looking picture! Good job!

Ok i had 10 minutes free this morning waiting for something to finish on my PC so i did a very rough quick sketch in pen of an idaa that came to my head this morning. May or may not develop it into a pic on the pc or use it as further idea. http://www.ejnmedia.co.uk/simpsons/lisascan1.jpg

-nice, i always like Alternative Lisa. The pen is not the best medium to scribble but you kept it relatively clean  Would be nice if you could bring it further!

Ah, that's a beaut.  Yes, a pretty alternative, has a naturlist look to it which definitly fits Lisa. Cute switch from her regular pearls to the necklase too. Is her hair dark in this version or is it just like that in this scribble? Not relevant to anything, but her left hand (right on pic) messes with my eyes x_x Feels like I'm seeing double, and I'm getting a bit dizzy if I watch it closely for a few seconds. Anyone else getting that?

EmpethreeYay! Now she looks like her grandma, Mona Simpson! Hair and a flower make me think about hippies  She looks indepedent, happy and free. And I like it. Nice to see new original art here  Keep it up, please. Pen isn't an easy tool, but you've sketched that quite well, just a little practice will make proportions right, I suppose. Beautiful version of Lis

OK i done another new picture this evening. This one is loosely based on the last pen sketch and also incorporates something you do not see to often in The Simpsons.... Lisa and Maggie holding hands. I have changed Lisa's hair, Lisa's Clothing and Maggie's Clothing too. Mebbe a hairstyle Lisa may want when she is a bit older http://www.ejnmedia.co.uk/simpsons/emplisamaggie.png

Yay for happy Maggie!  It's a nice picture. Maggie looks great on this one. Lisa too, but her arm is a bit too long and her head seems to be a bit too big. Everything else looks great though. The colors and nice and bright and you've drawn Lisa's new hairstyle nicely.  * Suusje agrees with Gustavo that this is a great wallpaper. Good job!

OK after a few comments on the last Lisa and Maggie picture I have done a retouched version. I have changed some of the dimensions and made Lisa's arms a bit fatter and shorter. I have also changed the type of shading on this one and a different background has been used. So in effect it is a different picture as they have a different drawing feel to them http://www.ejnmedia.co.uk/simpsons/emplismagretouch.pngHope you like
