If you're interested in seeing my thought process/drawing process of this piece, I've recorded a video in the link below!

My dearest friend, if you don't mind
I'd like to join you by your side,
where we can gaze into the stars
And sit together,
now and forever
For it is plain as anyone can see,
We're simply meant to be

I started getting into this 'Tim-Burton' mood, and ended up watching his films like The Corpse Bride & The Nightmare Before Christmas leading up to Halloween, so it was only natural that I felt like recreating and commemmorating the festivities inspired by one of my favourite films. For those unfamiliar, this is the iconic ending scene of the film, The Nightmare Before Christmas, where Jack Skellington realizes his feelings for Sally. Of course, it's my own interpretation of the scene, which I thought was a lot warmer and touching, despite the eerie-cold macabre setting of the film.

Some more of my work:

Thanks! I thought that the scene was a lot more romantic, warm and intimate, despite how cold the film really was, and how dark and creepy !

Funny, with the lights coming off the moon, it looks a bit like the James Bond camera intro.

HOW GOOOD IS THE MOOVIE! I'm always going to love Tim Burton's films though hehe.
Glad you liked my little interpretation of the scene, just thought it was a lot more warm and intimate, despite how cold and dark the fim realy was.

Aw no! I feel for you - a life without cake is truly a terrible thing. Maybe give it a go sometime, basic cake bater is dead easy to do and simple sponges taste soooo good
Either that or you need to befriend a baker
