Description In the last week we got quite a bit of snow, which inspired this picture! This picture doesn't show how just 30 seconds later I dropped Chibi and lost him in the snow.  


I used the same method as my first picture, drew it up in my sketch book, scanned in the image and then Chibi helped fix the proportion issues, and helped with lining. He added himself in there for me too (I totally wouldn't have been able to do that!) and then I colored and shaded it. I got to use Chibi's snowflake brush which was a lot of fun.


I'm really happy with how this turned out though, it's my first real try at making a background!


I couldn't do this without Chibi. <3

Hope you enjoy!

Same here.  I have several drawings ready to display, but they are all springtime/summertime based.  I am thinking of having Hana attending the Sochi Olympics, but I have to see some scenes of the area for ideas.

Oooh this was posted quickly, very nice work! Chibi is wilderness survival expert #1! He made his way home safely.

This came out great, and even a simple background adds quite a bit to a picture! The shading is very nice and light as well~

That snowflake brush is really nice, I don't have any idea how to make something like that.

The snowflakes were my favorite part. I added them on a few separate layers.

This picture title reminded me of something my dad used to say but I'm sad to say this picture doesn't reflect that at all. :3

I'm not sure if that is a good, or bad thing! Haha

Considering it's an old saying of "The snow's butt-deep on a 12 foot tall Indian" out there, I think it's probably a good thing. :3

Aww, it's very nice, how sweet! Though, I'm sure Chibi didn't appreciate getting dropped in the snow. But, when you've got a giant wife, I'm sure it makes it a lot easier to get warm again.

takaiBiscuit In reply to Amanardra [2014-01-27 05:38:36 +0000 UTC]

At least he is dropping into the soft snow and not something harder! But you're right, I am sure I could warm him up in a jiffy!

Amanardra In reply to takaiBiscuit [2014-01-27 05:42:35 +0000 UTC]

That's true. I could only imagine if you droped him that time you decided to run around as Lara Croft in the mountains, youch! Also, I just recently learned that a jiffy is an actual unit of measurement... it's the time it takes light to travel one cm (~33.3x10^-12 seconds). I'd be impressed if it actually only took that long to get him warm!

This looks so great! I'm so proud of you. Even if you did drop me in the snow and leave me there for a full minute. XD


I love you!
