... I met a boy who taught me to fly...

Granny Wendy is remembering her childhood. This was inspired by: [link] I always wondered what she'd look like as an old lady. I'm guessing we're in the 1980's here, so I tried to give her some new clothes. The walls in the back have a different pattern. Well, they had to redo the walls in all those years, no?

Can I faint now? :faint:

Of course I used reference pictures! I first made a scetch of the Grand Duchess, Anastasia's grandmother, to learn something about an old lady's features. She always reminded me of Wendy anyway. I guess it's because of the hair. She also has those little locks on the side. I'm guessing Wendy would take some of her old hairdo back, so I kept those. Then I looked at pictures of the adult Wendy and mixed their features togheter. I scanned, inked and colored.

Then the background... Oh my goodness... Actually, I am surprised because I thought it would take me even longer. I traced the OUTLINES of the window (everything that had to become blue). Just because I couldn't get the perspective right. I colored, shaded, put a texture on it.
I didn't trace anything for the room. I looked at the screencap and tried to recreate it. Same thing for the roof.

I added the colored Wendy and changed her size untill she had the right proportions according to the window.

Made some last adjustions, resized the whole thing and saved.

And here it is!

It is still not perfect. The reference pictures are way better than this. But since this:[link] was my first window, I'm satisfied with the result above =)

Please comment before you favourite :iconcommentplz:
I'm open for suggestions. After all, I'm still here to learn.

Very well done! I like how you have her aged as a granny. I've never seen an elderly Disney Wendy before! Tho she does resemble Granny Wendy from Hook too.
