So this is gluttony number three of my seven deadly sins using alice in wonderland inspirations.

I have always thought that there was something sinister about tweedle dee and tweedle dum…you shouldn’t be fooled with their wide grins and moral teaching stoires…They have something off hidden behind their narrow eyes…

I chose tweedle dee and tweedle dum for gluttony because they were rather chubby in the cartoon and I just always got a weird sense of the fact they lingered around in a forest waiting for straying little girls… my version of tweedle dee and tweedle dum are quiet strange and not so nice…
I can almost hear them munching old bones by looking at their faces…

I could have easily done the walrus and the carpenter for gluttony, mainly the walrus because he ate all the oysters *this is a story tweedle dee and tweedle dum told alice*
But I simply did not want to do that…
This image is by far my least favourite and only because I’m not huge into the design or characters I used in this one :) I do enjoy what I’ve done but out of the three I’ve done so far it was the one I just wanted to get out of the way.

I chose blues and purples for this because I simply wanted to, was originally going to make it pinkish for gluttony but it didn’t make tweedle dee and tweedle dum look quiet as menacing.

Utensils used were water colour faber castells *no water added*
Ink and fine liner pens.

Xoxo enjoy

Neat. For some reason, this particular Deadly Sins: Alice drawing makes me think quickly of Tim Burton's rendition of the movie... Though they look nothing like this. xD

Anyway, I have a question. I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I wanted to make sure: Have you played American McGee's "Alice" game? I keep seeing the resemblance in your drawings, it's absolutely fantastic because you put your own artistic spin on it and make it a whole new masterpiece.... <3

This an amazing picture, but wouldn't the walrus be gluttony instead of the twins? He is the one who ate all the clams in the story.
