Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you



Here in Germany it's the 24th of December now, the day where we celebrate Christmas with family and gifts and stuff =v= And I want to upload my Christmas and New Year's Pic now~
I finished it... two days ago and I was so damn happy that I made it in time. In the end I went on in a rush, so probably some parts of the background are a bit messed up like the christmas tree, which looks completely flat. But well, at least it turned out like I imagined it ... kinda xD;
Hum... although Sorrow has almost the same pose as he had last year I quite like it o o and it also shows me that I had improved a bit. At first I wanted to draw them "floating" like last year, but I wanted to draw a more scene-like picture, so standing poses came up into my mind. I know... I could've drawn them in another way... like sitting in front of the Christmas tree... but right now I feel how hard it is for me to draw sitting poses *glares to unfinished sketch next to me* Nah...
Can you see the misteltoe? ovo Damn, I'd like to see Sorrow's face when he'd move his head a bit up and spot it. I'd laugh about him.
Hm, this year I made the firework with a brush. It simply looked better than that what I did last year... although I try to avoid brushs as good as I can just say that there are some things brushs are really handy for. Like the firework or the moon in this place. Down below in the copyrights I'll give you the link back to where I've found them x3
Hum... seems like I'll make drawing Sorrow and Anne on a Christmas and New Year's Pic my new weird tradition xD;
So hmm... I dunno what to say more and to be honest I'm still a bit tired from =Amarena-Berry's Birthday party. I guess I'll go to bed soon to be awake tomorrow early enough to continue sketching or doing some random shit to kill time o o

I hope all of you'll have a great Christmas, get a lot of gifts and share a good time with friends, family and so on ovo And of course a happy new year to you as well x3 Thanks a lot for this awesome year, which is as good as over ;v; Since I haven't been so active in 2008 I hope I can work on this a bit better next year and offer you commissions soon ovo; See ya~

Rudolph sends special greetings
