Winter's Night One for Nassima

[krisomniac]

Artist: krislaughs
Title: Winter's Night (one)
Characters: R/S, some reindeer, and Santa with his sleigh off stage right
Rating: PG
Medium: Watercolour
A/N: Er. I needed to take more time with this one, especially the deer. Again, I liked the preliminary sketch a whole lot, but the watercolours didn't bear my concept well.

I don't know for the sketch, but the coloured version worked very well for me! The reindeers hair is wonderfully done, and Christmas cards need rich colours as the one you painted.

Really, what's bothering you here?

Mmm. I just felt... I tihnk I overworked the skin and underworked the reindeer, if that makes any sense.

I dunno. The sketches looked the way I wanted them to, but the finished product did not, no matter how much I tried.
