Cast Away Dreams Sketch

The full title is "Cast Away Dreams All Come True" which is the line princess Camille is singing at the moment.

Anybody remember the movie Little Nemo? (not Finding Nemo, this has nothing to do with fish). I was a HUGE fan of it as a kid, to the point that my parents HATED it, lol. I recently re-watched it on YouTube and was inspired to draw this quick sketch.

Now, I'm submitting this to but the rules for using it are slightly different, because I will allow you to alter the lines! Here's a summary of the rules for use: (bc some people don't like to read as much as I write)

RULES
You may "ink" this piece, and don't need to stay exactly faithful to the sketch, except the dress.
If you "ink" the piece, you must post it to so that anyone else may use it.
You must credit me, and provide me with a link to your "inked" or colored piece.

Pretty simple, right? Now for the long version. I'm offering this piece for use as exactly what it is: a sketch. Due to extensive cleaning (pretty much any pixel that isn't a line has been erased) it's technically possible for you to color it as-is, but some of it is a little, well, sketchy.

For instance, see those squiggly lines in the background that look like some kind of lumpy growth has attacked the balcony? Those are supposed to be rosebushes. If you can make them look more like rosebushes, more power to you! Likewise with the architecture. If you can make the balustrades look more consistent in shape and distribution, have at it. In fact, there's a lot that could use improvement: the foliage on the harp, her hands (which are really more indications of where hands should go) her face (which in my defense is the size of a nickle), etc. The only thing I ask that you keep the same is the dress, because I'm really happy with the way it turned out. It's my first time drawing fabric without a reference that came out looking realistic.

I say "ink" bc you can use any method you like, whether it's digital or traditional. Also, you will get much love if you make it bigger.

Oh, and if you want to know the original colors, I used this Youtube video as reference: [link] starting at about 4:30
