Description
I've been thinking about elements in relation to mice, 'cause I like elements a lot and I like mice a lot. So I started drawing some mice in elemental kinda costumes and they're all very silly but yes, we know I'm silly already.This is supposed to be part of a larger picture with all the elements but I decided to submit each piece of it separately just because I take forever at coloring anything and everything and I didn't want to spend my whole winter break on just this one thing. So...so bear in mind this is supposed to be kind of a background element with a sun and moon and junk and...stuff. I thought about just showing the mock-up for it but then there would be no lame surprises left.
ANYWAY. There is also an Earth/Air one and a Fire/Water one in the works, and if they are ever finished I will put them all together into one slightly less lame picture. I think. Maybe. I'd like to at least finish the Earth/Air one 'cause I do like Earth!Minnie.
As for my choices in elements...Mickey's basically all the masculine elements, those being Day, Light, Air, Fire, what have you, and Minnie's all the feminine ones, as in Night, Darkness, Earth, and Water. Didn't just do it for the genders, though, I think they match up pretty well. Mickey's all the bold, honest, open, playful, aggressive, noble, spirited, powerful, light-hearted, assertive, shifty, flighty, air-headed, irrational, jump-right-in, I'm-gonna-see-the-woooorld elements and Minnie's the nurturing, down-to-earth, comforting, rational, healing, passive, passive-aggressive, secretive, subtle, gentle, stubborn, cautious, domestic, look-before-I-leap, now-let's-not-get-excited elements.
As usual there's lots of things wrong with this but I will only say beads oh god Minnie's beads, I'm sorry, I was tired, I will make them better if I ever finish the whole shebang.
There. 8| *Reads everything* ...I've lost my mind. These are just cartoon mice, I don't know why I get worked up about what I do with cartoon mice. Yeah. Yeah, if I need to stop drawing mice you guys will tell me, eh? Okay. Good. *Backs away slowly*
Mickey and Minnie belong to Walt Disney and stuff.

I. Love. This. Seriously! I'm crazy about Sun-and-Moon, Day-and-Night, Light-and-Dark, Ying-and-Yang Β styled couples! They have such a cosmic, mythical feel. Β

I love minnie's many strands of beads, and the moon pattern on her dress was creative.

Haunting! I'm glad I saw RoyalKitness' comment, because I was trying to think of the right word. There's something really spooky (in a good way!) about the way their faces are pressed into each other. I also love Minnie's cape, especially the tattered part at the bottom

What's wrong with the beads? Those was ma favorite part! *Sad face* lol
Honestly, other than the small minoot fact that the image is just a little unbalanced, 'hardly effects anything' I have no constructive comments for this picture. It is VERY well done sir. ^_^ or, ma'am, lol.

Y'know what this reminds me of?
Titania and Oberon from a Midsummer's Night's Dream. The colours and the opposition of the two lovers...it's just beautiful! Can't wait to see more

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I don't pay attention to DA and BAM! Beauty appears! XD Oh man I'm loving this to pieces! Their designs are lovely, the outfits, her headdress, I love the way you incorporated both sun and moon into their outfits like that especially with Minnie's dress with the little phases of the moon!!!
and that kiss! So passionate, like two lovers reunited for the first time in a long time, the way he's holding her so tenderly. I agree with you on the element choices too. If you do get a chance to make the others, you know I look forward to them.

So much beauty and thought behind this image, it makes it that much more grand. Love the details and yes you are right, both of them really suit the elements you chose for them, not only based on their masculine/feminine roles but also because their personalities really exemplify it. Lovely shading and what an epic image, it is so romantic and very sweet, also very great to imagine Minnie summing up the courage to just leap out into the arms of her man but then of course, she trusts him to catch her and not let her go. I also really like the flow of the fabric and the detail on it, especially on Minnie's cape

Aw, hey, I'm probably never gonna stop drawing Mickey and Minnie for as long as I live. I've been obsessed for far too long. I just like to complain about how one-note my tiny gallery is.
Thanks for the comment~!

First and foremost, take it from someone with exepreince: it is very emotionally rewarding to draw rodents in love if you are particularly invested in the characters of said rodents. ^^
Secondly, this is just sorta awesome. The composition is epic and sweeping, with the contrasting colors really electrifying the whole thing. But you focus it all on the most heartfelt intimate part of the whole thing, and it's beautiful. ^^

wow... it reminds me an eclipse.
Magic is on my imagination. This is so kingdom Hearts.
I like It. Do not take it bad, but you could experiment with the others disney character. You got talent. I mean, for Example: Water Daisy and Fire Donald (His temper )
Wind Goofy (his airhead) Earth Clarabelle.
Anyway, I am glad you drew this it is amazing.

Elera In reply to dulcesarcasmo [2010-12-03 20:52:53 +0000 UTC]
Oooo, hey, that's actually a pretty clever idea! However, I've already got the other elements drawn for the most part, and I'm kind of old school in that I ship Clarabelle with Horace and Goofy with no one. It's true that my gallery does need more pictures of the rest of the gang, though. Thanks for the feedback!

I almost fell out of my chair, I was that surprised at seeing something so amazing.
Goodness, where do I even BEGIN?! Not only are the thoughts and concepts behind the work something to appreciate, but the coloring! the details! The outfit designs! I feel like the more I look at it, the more things I discover within it. Her cape, his shoulderblades, her beads, his belt, I keep finding such intricate works, and I'm beyond happy for it. This is an amazing job, and leaves me inspired to write so many things.
Hope to see your other elemental arts if they're anywhere near this great!
