Making of Mrs Brisby

 

Doing this with acrylic was quite fun, from drawing the design in a piece of paper, to painting the layers, doing shadows, lines and the thorns to decorate around it. Loved it!

The Secret of NIMH - Mrs Brisby

 

Mother´s day was yesterday. Mrs. Brisby from "The Secret of NIMH" represents motherhood at its finest, and it's one of my mother's old time favorite movies. Together with the fact that my nickname is "Rat" at home, this made the perfect gift for this day. She liked it a lot and I myself am pretty pleased with how it turned out. 

I did some green "thorns" around the edges of the box to decorate it a little bit.

Using acrylic is awesome, giving you quite vivid colors to play with. I'm glad I decided to make this.
