Description
Here's my entry for the NY Anime Festival mascot. A little Japanese snow monkey with the Big Apple.Once upon a time, I had drawn this little guy for a local anime store logo. Well, that store is now closed
so I thought I may as well resurrect the little guy and give him another shot! For the store, I had drawn him using traditional materials but for this, I used Photoshop and Manga Studio to outline him.
I hope I get in at least the top 10! *crosses fingers*

I'm in the middle of mine(found out a bit late about the contest but hopefully I have enought time to finish it) I hope I can get in the top ten! You should win though! It's too cute to just pass up. The lineart is absolutly perfect. the coloring of course is superb! The whole idea is so adorable>w< You used color for the lineart, I really like that part.

I've been watching your work for a while, but when I saw this, I had to comment--this is freaking adorable!!! That is the most adorable monkey I've seen in a very long time. I wish you good luck in the contest. ^_~
Not much to say except for the fact that this is stellar and the artwork is very crisp, clean, and refined... The reddish hue to the shadow cast by the apple is slightly disconcerting, and it may be my imagination, but near the stem and leaf the white space has a little gray in it that detracts slightly... however, these piddly concerns are vastly overshadowed by beautiful linework, riduculous cuteness, and delightfully stylized shading.

Well, thank you for commenting then! I do appreciate it! Thanks for your crit as well! You did it nicely. lol! I think I see the part you're talking about. I used a real apple for a reference and there was a little reflection there but I guess I could have kept it out. Thanks again!

Thanks, hun! Yeah, it may be hard because I just read that one of the finalists was there at the voting and telling people to vote for hers. How fair is that?>_< If someone wins I want them to win fairly, you know what I mean? I dunno, we'll see.
