Title: "The Maitlands"
Artist: [livejournal.com profile] renisanz 
Medium: Pencil
Fandom: Primeval
Pairing: Abby Maitland/Connor Temple
Rating: G
Warning/Spoilers: If you haven't seen the Series 5 finale, yeah.
Disclaimer: The pencil lines are my own.
Notes: So, this was in my head after doing the Becker/Jess piece.

Teaser:





This turned out rather well, considering I've never drawn these two before. I have however, been mulling over drawing Abby's hair Abby, for a while.

Uhm...I don't know what's going on with the bouquet. Abby's fascinator/veil went through a few incarnations before I settled on what it is now. I'm not the best at designing outfits without relying heavily on references. That wasn't the case with this dress, and I'm very happy about that.

Connor's outfit? I combine a few different things that I've seen him/Andrew-Lee wear. I credit Inception/Arthur's wardrobe for me being able to pull it off at this point in my drawing career (esp. the vest). :)

The narrative: Jess and Emily would be the bridesmaids, with Becker and Matt as the groomsmen. Then I thought, why not have Jenny Lewis come out of the woodwork to be in the party, and Danny Quinn would be back from his quest to find Ethan/Patrick (like, there would totally be this awesome showdown that threatened to break up the wedding) and he'd end up being her escort. Just to round things out.

Lester would officiate, of course.

Feedback is lovely. :)

That's really amazing!!! You're very talented. ♥

I actually really love the bouquet. It looks like it was just randomly pulled together from all sorts of bits and pieces, which would be fairly appropriate for Abby. :)

Thank you! I do think the bouquet suits Abby, but when I was winging it as drawing so I wasn't sure how successful it looked. :)

I am in awe and in love with your artwork. Abby is simply perfect, you captured everything about her/Hannah including her cheekiness and Connor is perfect toooooo. I love his clothes. I miss his waistcoat/hoodie combo and his hats.... off the point but <3

Thank you!

Connor's wardrobe definitely had a different vibe these past two seasons, but I guess it helps to show how his character is changed a bit.

Oh that is lovely. Abby's face is spot on and I love her hair.

Wow! Amazing! I agree about Danny too, he should have never left... *sigh* I hope Tim and Adrian see this and use it as their basis for Series 6 which WILL be created, if they use this, it will be amazing!

Oooooh! Very nice!

The way you narrated the wedding sounds like how a ARC wedding would be, especially for these two!
