Nestor's tux was such a bitch to colour but it's my favourite thing in this whole picture. |D

This makes me feel warm and fuzzy I've always loved the "Marlinspike Family" idea

I believe he belongs to the Captain. In 'Explorers On The Moon' he mentions how he wants to be back at Marlinspike with his cat on his knee.

Such an awesome scene, those are all such great characters and how you drew them in this style is really unique and awesome!
I love how you added the cat.

Snowy's bow and the tree are my favorites. :3 Now we need Cuthbert using his pendulum over a present to figure out what it is. XD (Late comment on old pic is laaaaaaaaaaaaaaate.)

Thanks for faving!
Funnily enough, once I knew how I was doing the tree it became rather simple. It probably took just a little longer than Snowy's bow. (Silly Tintin and his need to dress Snowy up occasionally)

Silly Calculus and his pendulum!
Lovely detail on the tree, too!

Wherever Cuthbert goes, his pendulum must follow!

As the Thom(p)son twins would say, "To be precise, following his pendulum, Cuthbert must go wherever!"

Nestor's tux looks great, perfect shades of grey in it.
I love the realistically drawn Milou.
That's how Calculus would look like IRL, especially his hair. SPOT ON.
HADDOCK IS JOLLY AS A HOBBIT HAVING A BIRTHDAY PARTY. He deserves to be happy.

XtreamCrazy In reply to Captain-Sweden [2011-02-01 08:17:17 +0000 UTC]
Nestor should always be impecably dressed. Even in artwork.
Realistically drawn Milou loves you also. But only if you give him a shot of whiskey.
His hair was FUN to draw. I'mma admit it.
AND THE CAPTAIN IS HAPPY BECAUSE THERE'S NO CASTAFIORE THERE.

I wonder if Nestor and Jeeves know each other. Would the universe crack up by the combined deadpan snark?
No, sorry Milou, Tintin would be really mad at me if I did that. But here is a bone for you:
More importantly, no Jolyon Wagg. Most of the gang like or can at least live with Castafiore, but Jolyon Wagg? Who likes HIM? (Beside his own family, that is.)

XtreamCrazy In reply to Captain-Sweden [2011-02-02 23:40:05 +0000 UTC]
Nestor and Jeeves would be BFF. Just sayin.
Tintin: *not quite happy about the bone either. But it is a present* >=T
I love Jolyon Wagg. ;A;

Well, he does have a day job and a family. I guess he's the closest to how a "normal" guy could get to Tintin's adventures.

AAAAAHHHH so adorable! *sits on Archie's lap and spills his whiskey*
The level of detail in this is simply astounding. It's such a complete picture of soft cozy coziness. Brava!

Captain: *more concerned that his whiskey has been spilt rather than the fact that there's a woman on his lap* ):
Thank you! ^__^

DUDE DUUUDE THIS.
This is so cool, I can-t even start to write a decent comment FGHJGHJK
I really, really love how Nestor-s tux came out. It looks so realistic, darnit. x)
Painting with black is a bitch, but well worth it when done right, methinks.
The environment of the picture is SO COSY and familiar aww. And it has a soft yellow light, wich gives it that warm feeling c: I love it.
AND THE TREE.
AND THE LIGHTS.
And the... uh circular thing which name I have forgotten, fu. So much detail, aaaah!
I see, I see, I see a pussycat.

Thank yooou!! <3
I know, I always have trouble shading black stuff because everywhere you go there are tutorials saying how nothing is ever truly black. Hmph. >=I
The soft yellow light was accidental. I have no idea how I accomplished it. >///>
It's a wreath! So many people have forgotten that, so I wouldn't be worried. XD
What's new, pussy cat? Woah oohwoah-oohwoah woah woah...

Pussycat, pussycat I've got flowers and lots of hours to spend with you~
