Description
Been a while huh? How about a new pic? This is one of seven paid-commission Christmas cards I drew, inked, scanned and colored entirely in Photoshop 7. I have strict permission from the owner to display this picture (and the other pictures), so if anyone wants a copy...tough luck. I don't have anything (original drawings, image files or .psd files) except the final .jpeg images. Honestly, this one took the longest to complete. I had to create my own tutorial for making the ice texture/color. Glad I don't have to do this one again! PHEW!
Anyway...
Questions, comments and ideas always welcome!
Enjoy!
P.S. Thanks to SeanE for giving me that little info on how to do the two-tone coloring ;)

Looks really cool...allthough it seems to say "tarot card" to me rather then Christmass card ;) Anyway, good work!
It looks really good and does speak of Christmas. Not only does is say peace on earth but peace through out the universe. "V" Merry Christmas LadySythe from your Uncle NakotaWarrior.
I like it very much
looks nice - the skintones can do with more contrast between light and dark and lightsources are wonky but otherwise good. How'd you do the planets? - flamingpear's lunarcell???
Thanks for the comments :) All the Christmas pictures I did were kinda of rushed, that and I'm still learning how to color. And erm...ran out of time with this picture (and the pc froze before I could save the finished and much better looking picture sniff) And as for the planets, I used a really nice tutorial :p http://www.artofgregmartin.com/ you'll find the tutorial there.
Kool looking ice queen for xmass, your painting work has come along way. Well done
