Description Snowanna and Adorabeezle convinced the other kids to try a different kind of race. c:

And also I wanted to draw Vanellope playing and having a good time with the other kids. She wanted it so bad. ;^;

Winter Challenge

(On a side note, Tobi scolded me for drawing Rancis wiping out but was unconcerned that he's about to cream Jubileena. I SMELL FAVORTISM.)

(Also, how did I not notice how freaking cute Snowanna is before this. I mean even among Sugar Rushers.)

BUT WIPING OUT IS A REALISTIC THING D8 Hell they were wrecking all over the place in the game. /Shot

I love Rancis face. While everyone else is cute, just that expression gives me all sorts of 'can't.'

Yeah, it's nice to see her getting along with 'em all. The white backdrop is perfect for the riot of colors that is the Sugar racers. Also like the various designs of the sled.

So much cuteness.

I don't even know what to do.



I totally loved this movie. And the thought of them having a sledding race fits the season very well indeed.

Adorable drawing!

This is a cute picture and that 'wipe out' in the making has me laughing.

I actually think the mini-scene playing out in the background between Rancis and Jubileena may be my favorite part; Jubileena's "bwuh?" face is too perfect, and the way you so perfectly capture that slow-motion disaster about to unfold is really effective comedy.

The whole scene has a good, enjoyable energy to it, and you do a nice job of creating a sense of depth from how close-up each racer is to the viewer. I also definitely appreciate the individualized sleds, from color to style; helps keep up the "Sugar Rush" racing motif. ^_^ Best of all, the little interactions-Vanellope snow-drifting Taffyta who is amused at the gesture, Adorabeezle and Snowanna sharing a slightly more competitive moment-help underline how much this is Vanellope getting to have a good, enjoyable moment among friends. It gives the pic exactly the emotional satisfaction I think you were looking for, and I dig it a lot for that. ^_^

As for Snowanna, I think the fact that she's only in the movie for a combined total of, like, half a minute of screentime might've been a factor in not noticing her cuteness until you got to work with it up close, but that's just my theory. X3 <3

X3 I can accept that theory. I noticed, say, Minty Zaki because her name amuses me and who doesn't love a giant hairbow... but the only thing I really picked up from Snowanna is her admittedly glorious frocone. Then I started looking at references for this and... my god look at this baby~

And thanks - that little background bit was one of the first things that HAD to happen once I decided on Sled Rush (originally it was going to be Candlehead, but I decided she was way far back because she has to stop and relight every time powder puts her candle out, so Jubs got the honor XD). I also had a lot of fun just looking at pictures of sleds - sometimes gathering refs is half the fun of an image! And I'm really happy the interactions carried well <3

Exactly; with her minor role and limited screentime, about the only thing Snowanna has going for her that CAN be noticed at a glance is the (agreed, glorious) 'fro. Once you settle down for a minute and really look her over, you start to see everything else about her, so it's no wonder that's when she really clicked for you. ^_^

You're very welcome. I can definitely tell you had fun playing around with the dynamics of the scene and the characters (I am also now very fond of the notion that Candlehead obsessively keeps her candle lit at all times, not because she has to or anything but because she can't not have it lit XD; ), and am utterly unsurprised at the amount of thought you put into each element of both. <3
