Description
Secret Santa gift for . I was apparently able to choose any of her characters, so I picked her fursona with her fursona's mate because I wanted to draw a cat rubbing up against another animal. XD Taking a break from digital and doing some pictures in colored pencil again is really nice (I kind of feel bad for the lack of background though), and being able to use my scanner at home is great! No more hassle of taking pictures and uploading and everythingl -w- Well, I really hope you like it, ~Chikara-Sama , and Merry Christmas!Secret Santa hosted by

I love how the shadow is a <3
Creative and genuine <3
Wanting to draw a cat rubbing against something is a very good reason to do so! XDD I love drawing things rubbing against things too! :3 Its so cute!
I love your colored pencil work! You are amazing...and super hot. XDDD
This is really cute, I love the characters :3 The blue eyes her fursona are beautifully contrasted and I love it. It makes them glow. XD

I think the heart was my self justification for not drawing a background on this one. XD Which now I feel kind of bad about because most of my Secret Santa recipients give me comments like 'oh wow, it's great! Thanks!' and I was kind of like 'that's it?' But this person was really nice about it, so I felt guilty for not taking as long on her picture because she deserved it. *is rambling* But thank you for your epic comment (all of them really), and I really love those blue eyes too!
Both of them have blue eyes, but you only see one here~

Yeah I hate when people just comment like that...it makes me feel like they dont like it very much or they dont really care or worst of all, they didnt really look at it that well. D: Sorry that they do that to you! We all get em' though ):
I am sure she loves it just the way it is <3 And the heart shadow is really cute! <3
Mmm blue eyes<3

Awwww, so snuggly and cute! These are so well drawn, Rachely (as always!). I like how you made the shadow into a heart, it's a cute concept ^^.
Oh, something random but cool I noticed was how the red on both of the characters tend to meet in similar areas--almost looks like they're blending together, which I think further expresses the cuddly mood in the picture.
Although I really love the picture, I do feel a bit inclined to make a comment about it (I'd like to think of it as a critique, but I feel like I'm just being biased and picky). Anyways...
I've noticed that with colored pencils, when you color with a dark color, it tends to have a high contrast with the paper. Although this isn't necessarily a bad thing, I guess I kinda feel like a lot of the coloring was left a little *empty.* It still looks great, and I can definitely tell the effort you put into it, but I guess the contrast of the white paper and the black fur is very noticeable to me (talking specifically about the white within the character that didn't get colored as much).
Hm, what do you think?

Aww, thank you! Again. XD Oh wow, I definitely didn't notice the red thing, but I can kind of see it too~ Character connection! Oh Erik, you have no need to feel weird giving me critique, for I love them.
I suppose I didn't give the characters enough layers because I do see what you mean (since it's at this stage I'm afraid to mess it up by adding more to it, but I'll stop being lazy and add more dark layers to things in the future). Thanks for the nice long comment and critique, Erik!
They always make me happy~

Awww, I'm glad ^^ (<-- I love that icon. It's my favoritest).
But yay, you kinda answered a question I had: could this be avoided with more and more layers? I remember the first time I picked up a Prisma, you recommended that I used dark blue, gray, or brown. Is that another technique? Teach me, Rouge!

TsukiTsu In reply to pessoadapaz [2010-12-22 07:39:32 +0000 UTC]
*last comment before I go to bed, oh so speshul one*
It probably could, depending on how many layers and how it's blended (pressing too hard usually doesn't do it as well, but maybe that's just personal opinion). You can pick what kind of black/dark gray you want by the base (other grays, browns, dark blues), and that changes the color! I'm not sure if any of those colors is better than any other, but it's definitely something to keep in mind~ Hope that helps, and if you have any other questions, I shall answer them in the morning for you! Night night!
