Description This is the fifth edition and fourth re-draw of the original drawing of my conceptual "Frosty the Snowman" Dancer, that I've done back in the year of 2008.

Oneday in Autumn 2004, while I was in my bedroom, listening to some "Holiday/Christmas" music and also watching my "Rudolph, Frosty & Friends Sing-a-Long" video, I was having a daydream, when I was performing in a Christmas/Winter dance recital, and dancing to Jimmy Durante's version of "Frosty the Snowman" (as heard in the classic Rankin/Bass television special: [link] ), in a costume/outfit exactly like this. Once again, as included in last year's, as well as the year before's re-drawn version, I've added some extra details to the costume (such as beaded choker to match the earrings & details on the tiara, along with "fluffy" snow white/ice blue sleeves to make the "fluffy" snow white/ice blue wrist bands), and I really love how those features blend in with the costume.

I'm very happy of how this came out, especially with the colors & shading. I hope you all will enjoy!

The lineart for this artpiece was started on in September of 2012, and completed & submitted in December of 2012.

Drawn on 11x8 1/2 sketchpad, with a No. 2 pencil (and in my own traditional art style), fixed, cleaned-up, colored & shaded by using Adobe Photodeluxe Home Edtion 3.0., and finalized on MS Paint (for thin boarder, and artists' signature). The background was made by *YuniNaoki , and was added on by using Adobe PhotoDeluxe Home Edition 3.0.

"Frosty the Snowman" (song) was written by Walter "Jack" Rollins in 1950 and recorded by many various artists

good work, she looks cute, though try to work on the anatomy more, and if you have struggles when it comes to drawing hands, all you need to do is look at reference. but so far so good, she looks cute~

Thank you very much. I am so glad that you think so, I am still working hard enough to improve on my anatomy skills some more, especially when it comes to drawing hands, in which could be difficult for me to draw perfectly quite often, and I agree with your suggestion, references would definitely make helpful sources.

Thank you once again, for your comment along with some words of advice, I truly appreciate it all, and also, I would like to wish you a safe & Happy Holidays!

you're welcome~ I just want to see artists with potential improve more on their art style. (I'm also one of the artists who needs to improve in what I do XDDDD)

Thank you ^_^ and happy new year to you~
