Description
So I was originally going to do this thing in full color, but then decided I'd just throw on some spot blacks, and "throwing on" turned into full out spotting the whole piece and just coloring flats... XDD I dunno how I feel bout it in the end. I think I lost a lot of the fun detail and cleanliness I had in the lineart [link] so I'll probably just scrap this junk and color the darned thing (edit: but due to recent comments I've been convinced otherwise! LoL). Anyway just a cute lil piece of Ernie and Susie skating to "baby it's cold outside" because it seems like a super cute fitting song for the two.
I went all out cuz I was kinda drawing this for *Celestial298 as sorta a thank you gift for giving me Susie for the use of Pompfiction, cuz it means a lot to me. I spent a good 6 hours on the spot blacking and inking alone lol. Enjoy!

Thank you all for the daily deviation! Thanks Kat, and Chaoskomori for making this happen, and to everyone else for their support, favorites, and kind comments! Cheers!

Oh my gosh this is gorgeous! I loved how it's colored, and the line weight to everything and how you used the lines to show the darker areas.
Also congrats on the DD! That's really exciting and I'm happy for ya! 8DDD

Oh oh this. . . .this is beautiful. I've always had a soft spot for black shading like this and the line art is just beautiful. I mean really
Lol my comment makes no sense so I'll stop and keep staring at this. <3
Oh I just noticed the faint white outline around their heads! Very nice touch

this has a beautiful look to it, almost looks like an old print
the black inks are so bold, not something you see all the time, but add this striking quality that just can't be ignored
the dynamicness of the two skaters is wonderful, it is just so great at showing their motion...I also noticed all the woodland creatures dotted around the picture.. a rather nice touch that just adds to the scene of a 'winter wonderland'
the white splatter looks nice with the black background as well
and finally, congrats on the DD, this one deffinatly deserves it!

Awesome. ^_^ The way you drew the scenery reminds me of ukiyo-e. Japanese woodblock like Hiroshige and Houksai's work. Cool characters.

Thanks so much!! And to be compared to a Hokusai piece haha that's awesome! Thankye kindly. I am a fan of that style for its simplicity, and yet somehow detailed look, even in flat colors.

You're welcome. ^_^ You handle environments very well! (And your characters are great. That's an added plus! )
Yeah. I enjoy their look as well. ^_^ Their name literly translates to "floating cities." They're very nice. ^_^

Funny you should mention, DA already has a section for DDs in the artists gallery when you click "Browse" in their gallery, at the bottom it says "see also Fyuvix's Daily Deviations" n.n its hard to find D8 I don't blame you. I had to look for it XDDD
