Description Well, this was going to be an entry to a contest, but I didn't finish it on time. Maybe eventually I'll at least post the full pose. But for now, enjoy some fluff

Just a wonderful scene...You really capture the loving emotions so well. And I just love how you do their hair...

Thank you! I'm actually trying to find a faster way to do hair--I like the result, but it takes a really, really long time. I could definitely stand to take a digital art class.

You're most welcome... How long does it take for you to do hair? For me, it can take a bit...

Oh, it takes a while. I usually have a base color and then a separate layer of highlights, which start off as dots and get dragged around by the smudge tool on Photoshop until they look right. Tedious, that. Mind-numbingly so.

Thanks! It was originally a contest for Winter Festivals, so I was kind of going for warm and peaceful. *happy sigh* I love holiday pics.

This is just so beautiful and peaceful. The lighting is stunning, and the mood you've created is just amazing. I can't wait to see the full pose!!!

Hmmm, that message below was supposed to be a reply. Oops.

Stunning...and appropriately jealous again

I can never say enough times how beautiful the lighting in your creations are/is...argh. I'm so stunned I can't even do proper grammar. Yeah. And of course, so sweet this moment between Elissa and Alistair. I second the call for the full pose!

Thank you! I'm going to have to work on getting the actual fireplace in there, I think, after cutting out the other characters. Hmmmm.... I think a new project has just been born.

And yeah, I've been getting requests for a picture of them where they're not kicking the crap out of each other in some way. I decided to indulge them

Other characters? Now I'm intrigued...

Wow, Dasque! This is awesome! You need to get the full pose out ASAP!

Dasque In reply to JosieLange [2011-12-21 14:31:33 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I'll work on the full pose, though the full pic had three other characters in it. I think that project is a lost cause at this point.
