@Arrow: Haha I came up with the roll part when I was almost done, kinda like "I should have a song for credits... But what?" Not very elaborate, but I did have to resing the song 3 times.

@Thistle: Haha well, I'm glad you like it. I had plenty more comments, but they wouldn't fit :/

@Aeronwen: The loudest one would be me ;P

@Tommy: I really like the mountains! very realistic looking! good job!

@Marsh: My headset wasn't mailed until the 29th so I would bet your mouse was shipped around then. Should be clearing customs soon.

Waiting for paint to dry on Flameseeker cover...

Count me out of the list. I ran out of inspiration pretty early and won't be able to finish the artwork now. The stress about it is eating me alive already.

Maybe it was a bit too much with two internet references in one movie? Nobody seems to have noticed the easter egg in the credits :/

InfestedHydralisk: Yaay!

I thought I was pretty clever on where I put it, even though it was a spur of the moment. I almost forgot about it myself when noone commented on it :P

Thistle: It's in the credits.

Maybe it's just me and my inbred Swedish community that over use it all the time. There's references to it in almost all error messages XD

@GeminiJuSa: Ah! I did notice it too, but didn't comment on it because by the time I was writing the comment I'd already forgotten... My inbred Finnish community of friends here uses it all the time too. XD Along with over 9000! other memes.

@Al'Zarigus: Aw... :/ Well, I hope you'll be able to enter another workshop sometime later. Happy holidays!

@Marsh: Congrats on getting a job. Your drawing is coming along nicely too, I love the detail on Gwen's wedding dress. So pretteh! I hope you'll be able to at least draw a little more of the pic, since it'd be a shame to leave it unfinished.

@MoragD: Ooooooh, can't wait to see what your idea is! Yeah, I was trying to be a bit different too, but it's so difficult with some subjects. Good luck.

@Magik: That's looking gorgeous, I love the amount of detail on Dwayna's clothing. I agree with Tommy's about moving the wing a little, and perhaps add a touch of shadow to the bottom of the polar bear so that it looks more 3D. Right now, it just looks as if it's sorta floating or just pasted on because her hands are not casting any shadows on it.
Looking really great though!

@Shewmake: I'm not an expert on music, but to me that sounded nice. It seemed to fit together pretty seamlessly, and it was lovely to listen to.

@Magik ~ It just keeps getting better

@ Shewmake ~ I have listened to it a few times now – while I am playing, I like it very much and do not think it needs any changes.

@Tommy ~ Oh the ladder is sweet, won’t it need to be longer if they are going to get the head up there and put the carrot etc on? Or would a longer ladder spoil the balance? I am so looking forward to see how the other chars turn out, the elves are great.

@ Morag ~ *waits impatiently*


[QUOTE=` Marshmallow;5330659]garghgargh so I got a job..and I start monday <__> and its full time. XD" but its only for a month.. i probablyyyy wont...finish this piccc XD -lazyyyy-

Hmmm well maybe you can finish in your own time for your own satisfaction, and then just maybe show it to us anyway? Only if you are relaxed about it though.

Haha, I was so stunned by your voice I didn’t even notice what you were singing! Like Thistle I had to rewatch and then google it.


And wow, I see Kiya added some awesome prizes.

The ladder was longer.. but they ate it D:< Buwahaha.
But more seriousness, yes it should be longer if you wanted to make the snowman, but I think that it would draw toooo much attention to itself. So once the base is finished they'll just need to get a new one. I mean you don't have those Elves around to let them sit on their lazy bums right?

@ Morag: Really hope you find time, I think you should be arrested for keeping your awesome stuff from the world, because of some job.

@ Al'Zarigus: Sad to hear that But the most important thing about this workshop is fun, so if there is none left for you, then you are making the right decision

I haven't felt like drawing at all for a couple of weeks... I think I'll scrap my idea of the Dervish Santa, it has too much white fur on it. I drew the beard and the fur of the armor and neither turned out too good - they disappear into each other. However, I have a new idea of Norn Rits, I was thinking I'd draw my female Rit and a male one with a red nose attached on the mask, Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer style. I'll start doodling that setting today and hopefully find more inspiration in that.

The Dervish thing was simply too difficult to do by hand. Try it yourself, take a sheet of blue paper, one white pencil (crayon) and draw a white beard on white fur. Then try to define both so that they look separate and thick. I think I would've possibly yet unlikely succeeded with a proper image editin program and a drawing tablet, but now the colours... They just don't work. I'll catch up with you guys later, I have no hurry with anything now that the winter break is just around the corner.

Or maybe I'll just draw a pic of my Rit in a warm Norn Rit set-ish hoodie? I can't decide

The game, you just lost it is pretty commonly used. It's pretty well known atleast in the PvP community of GW. But you see it actually pretty much everywhere.

Thanks for the feedback! Guess I'll get started on the video.

@Marshmallow: I think I need to quote Xandra on this one:

@ Marsh. I saw you on Guildwars yesterday. If you have time for Guildwars you have time for drawing! But more serious, congrats on the job (asuming you are happy with it ). Hopefully you will still have time to share cuteness and smileys with us :3

@Frustration. Can't help you decide ^^ Both sound like it would be nice. First one would be a more funny aproach, while the other more serious, so perhabs you can scetch them both out and see what would suit your style better?


Started blocking in the main colours of the 2 characters. Now it's starting to look more christmassy. While doodling the 2 characters I found that the monk is more looking like she is sneakily throwing a snowball at the ele, rather then equalizing it Opinions? Think that if would take away the seriousness of building Tyria's biggest snowman, yet it might be fun. But don't want the piece to be tooo funny, thing the little elfs bring enough of that to the table already So what you think?




EDIT: Am I the only one not seeing my image?

@Tommy: I can see your image and I LOVE what i'm seeing! <3 it's so prettyyyy!
I love the candy cane ladder
My only qualm is the elf furthermost to the right. It's hands are bent oddly...i assume it's supposed to be holding it's hips? Idk =o it just looks...off
Otherwise it's all so epic Mountains have some really nice detail. I don't think the monk looks like she's throwing a snowball, and i know it's just doodles, but i think her behind looks rather large , relative to the rest of her body. Just saying. Otherwise, AWESOME! <3
@Marsh: Congratulations on the new job!
Even if you don't finish the pic, the last thing you'll be thinking about is chibi gwen when you're holding the paycheck Though i really do hope you finish it. It's becoming so prettyyyyyy!
@Oh_Frustration:Good luck with your rit maybe you should add three Spirits of Wintersday....Name them something like, Joy, Fun and Laughter, or perhaps something more wintery...And have them all holding candycanes. Can't forget the candycanes!
Hopefully i'll post something soon
@Koreena: I saw your pillow a while back and boy do i wish i could sleep on it *drool*

Hmmmm, the elf isnt holding his hands in his hips, he is holding 2 stones (the eyes of the snowman) Crap, ok so if thats not clear to you, it might not be clear to Anet either xd gottofix. Thnx for pointing that out.
And the monk has quite a deriere yes I must admit, already slimmed it down a bit, let me know if its still too big in my next wip
