Borrowers fanart WIP

Description

I was watching a BBC make of The Borrowers the other night (it was pretty average), but it got me doing a little drawing. I've always imagined Arrietty as a red head - probably the braided pigtails the illustrator of the book I have tends to portray her with - so I stuck with that. As far as I'm aware, she doesn't say what hair colour she's got, but I haven't read it in a long time now.

Peregrine, aka Peagreen here is a favourite of mine, but unfortunately, he tends to be overshadowed by Spiller (who to be fair is in more of the books). I also imagined him as a red head until I found out what "tow-coloured" hair actually was.

Anyway, I tend to imagine these two as a team, though not romantic. I just can't bring myself to see Arrietty, nor Peagreen as part of a romance.

I am planning on giving it a background instead of a plain colour. Again, just a wip.
