Aww, this picture is adorable. Your style seems to be getting more and more detailed as time goes by, heh (which in my eyes, is a good thing...I like pictures with small subtlties) :)

Ahh, the snow...reminds me of the way I use openCanvas for watercolour/painting, as I don't have a tablet to use, stippling about with a mouse is my usual way of colouring...of course, it turns out more blotchy than painty though, heheh. I'm impressed with the intricacies of detail on the latern...very nice!

Overall, a wonderfully pretty picture...and hey, about the halloween note...at least it includes an xmassy theme of snow, eh? ;)

P.S Tobias certainly looks more bubbly with big white eyes, hahah...

Thanks ^-^ I do try not to make them too detailed though, since at times one can also overload pictures with details, you know what I mean? It should still have a main motive to look at, and not being too confusing with itsy bitsy details ;P
Aww, no tablet? You could try getting one though, they're fun to draw with. Especially if you look for smaller or used ones, they're not too pricey, at least not more pricey than a 96 set of prismacolor pencils (I think they have Derwents in the UK, right? Those are a little cheaper, so you'd need to imagine a 150-set of them ) X3 You can get a Wacom tablet - which are kind of the best tablets you can get - used for around 28 pounds, at least from what I quickly checked right now.
Hehe, and you're right about the Christmassy note with the snow, I actually thought that too ^-^ Thanks for your comment <3

Yup yup ^-^ Even though I'd say, add another £ 15 and go for the larger 6x8" tablet, which is a really convenient size in my opinion - the next one would be too large, and the 4x5" is a little too small - 6x8" is just perfect ^-^

(by the way, right now PCMall is selling a few, for example ^^ You need to be careful with the customs or such though, I think it only pays off if you get them from the US, customs can be really evil at times ^^; )
