"Angel of winter" or "winter angel"...I hope my French is still good .
Now this picture was supposed to be submitted in time for Christmas...but with my luck that didn't happen . At least it was eventually coloured. This is my third original character who's named Tama. From all my years of watching tv , especially sitcoms and bishoujo anime , I've leared this: If you have 3 or more characters , espcially female ones they need to have specific personalities; a shy character , an "artsy" one and a spoilled rich kid arrogant one. Take a wild guess which type Tama is ! So while doodling this on Christmas eve I figured I'd make her all snobby and spoiled and a part time fashion model...all the things that could potentially give anyone an inflated head ! If I ever make a manga I'll have to make sure she shows all those unsavoury characteristics MUHAHAHAHAHAHA ! I'm still on an a never ending quest to...save my girlfriend...ooops wrong show XP. I mean I'm still working on that damn anatomy D: and working on better shading and colouring eyes . I hope it shows !
Picture Stats Drawing time: 2 attempts(Drawn on Christmas Eve , close to midnight !) Inking time: 1 attemp in 20 minutes with my fineliner pen Colouring time: 18 hours over 6 days(3 hours/day !). Coloured with Adobe Phtotshop 7.0 and the wacom graphire3 tablet Detail shots: Head|Snowflake|Holly
Other Stuff Tutorials followed: Soft-shading|Eyes Brushes: 500ml Brushes
...and...the name "Tama" translates to "Jewel" in Japanese , it can also mean...*drumroll*
EGG...that's right egg ! Remember those tamagotchi things? The name means "The loveable egg."...so I've created an egg girl !

It started out as a feeling,which then grew into a hope. Which then turned into a quiet thought, which then grew into a quiet word. But then it grew louder and louder until it was a battle cry.
