Artist Comment

yes, it's another one with snow... i just love playing with blue colors...

the drawing was done last year. if i'm not much mistaken, it's based on the box art of a compilation that was reviewed in a magazine last year. and there's the cold breath from the character at the back (the name's carrie, based on another friend of mine, who just loves to gawk at handsome guys).

it's a bit tough to do the snowflake effect, because i had to be very careful not to rub it out too hard. i was a bit rough in the end, and accidentally tore out a bit of the paper. luckily it's not too serious...

okay, after all the ranting, comments please?

ps: this piece was done in request of Rainwater, so if you're seeing this now, hope you like it.

    I'm very impressed with your coloring pencil skills. I really like the snow flakes and you pull off the effect quite well. The shadowing effects with your color pencil also came out great. I don't really see any flaws. I really enjoy seeing this work of yours. Nice job. :)

    Very gorgeous pencil drawing! Love the shades and shadowing. Very colorful. And such much attention to details again like creavises in the belt buckle. Awesome talent, Julian. Keep it up! ^_^

    I love pencil drawings - they just have this kind of sensitivity about them that you just can't get with a vectored art.

    Lovely lovely use of color and the snowflakes are a wonderful touch!

    Great work oh and by the way - what pencils do you use - as in brand XP

    I had to agreed that your colouring pencil skills is fantastic. I don't think there is any flaw in this drawing. A lot of compliment though, but i guess all had been mentioned above ^^;.
    Great doujin! Hope to see more of your work^^.

    Eheh snowflakes... tough job indeed, i guess you got out of it pretty good XD

    Okay about the characters, i think the girl in front is recurrent to most of your drawings right ? is she some kind of special person to you ? anyway i like her :) she's always got that blush on her cheeks, it's cute. great job on the clothes (i love the scarf's pattern, and the bag is nice too). about the shading on the girl, it could be a bit improved, especially the hair color that goes too dark brown... even though you got the 'light from the side' pretty well ;)
    I love the other girl's hat, and well she's pretty cool, though maybe her glasses look "flat".

    Nice bg and colouring, i think there's a beautiful contrast between the warm colors and the cold of the snow. Plus i like the "reality" of the scene, the characters aren't frozen (not a pun here), they look alive !

    Good job as usual, sorry for the late comment, back to school *sob*

  11. pegassuss Feb 21, 2006

    Great work! ^^ I really like the design of the characters, the are well drawn and they are really nice. I really like their expressions. The coloring is very well done and the foldings too, as well as the shading. You managed really well to show the contrast. The snowflakes are nicely drawn too ^^ Great job!

  12. RainWater Feb 23, 2006

    Woah! I can't believe I'm only seeing this now! XD

    Hehe! Lol, thanks for putting my name up *points way up* there. :P

    Haha! Beautiful as always! The coloring is so great too. I can't even see that little tear you were takling about. :D And you've made a beautiful snow effect. :) :)
