winter magic

[AnMal]

my dollfaced fairies or pixies were naturally falling into a theme - seasons. so here's the winter image, the long title *) is "the fairy magic of a winter day". in the making of this i had to turn an image of a real snowflake into a snowflake brush that i can post here if anyone is interested.

*) yep, i LOVE long titles! it comes from being at crafts and design shcool together with a lot of wannabe artists and art-crafters who either just called their stuff "untitled" or named it "1", "2" etc because they thought titles were outdated. i just had to rebel and deliberately chose the longest and silliest titles i could and now that's how i like it.

Nicely done again AnMal.

Nice one AnMal. The colours in the snowflake really bring it to life.

steve: thank you!
lylejk: thank you!
erisian: thanks, it looks a lot better this way than with the bullfinch!

Lovely, AnMal. May we have the snowflake brush? Winter is coming soon and I am sure I will have a use for it.

[AnMal]

pat625: thank you ! i'll post the brush in the resources section for you.
edit: i seem to have a problem with attaching the file right now. can't really see what the matter is, it's not too big or anything, it just won't upload. i'll post it in the future and notify you when it's here, though.

makes me feel like crispy cold air looking at the image reminds me Calgary's cold winter bright sunshine mornings.

AnMal, great job you did in "winter magic" I'm interested in your brush if possible. I've been out of the forum for a very happy familiar event and I'm going to try to catch up in the forum as soon as possible. Lovely sign yours

trandoductin: i long for that cold, crispy, frosty feeling so much i feel like bursting! we had some very fine winter days here in sweden last year, erisian was lucky enough to be over for a visit just then (up until april this year he still lived in england), but the fine winter left with him, pretty much. after that we had that confounded göteborg rain and temperatures were far too high for my taste. i grew up in a place were temperatures often dropped to minus 30 C in the winters, so that's my idea of fine weather .
issabella: thank you! it's nice to have you back here, i was wondering where you had gone to . glad to hear it was because of a joyful occasion.

okay, now i have posted the brush in the resources section!

Lol @ Long Titles

Nice picture! Her head is a wee bit big but I think you did that on purpose. xD

Anmal - pretty face and beautiful composition (as usual) and I knew the ABBA ladies were missing something from those white uniforms .... WINGS!

Heh heh! " I believe in angels...... "

[AnMal]

mokonafan: thank you sis! yep, the head is a wee bit big and i did it on purpose - believe it or not, it was bigger at first, i scaled it down quite a bit so she would at least look strong enough to hold up her own head .

oldmangrumpy: thank you ! but my fairies have a personal message to you: "no one mentions ABBA in the same post as they mention us! we advise you to be more careful in the future or be prepared to face the consequences."

erisian: *fingers in ears* lalalala, i can't hear you! besides, you should remember that my fairies know where you live. and that you've been warned concerning ABBA quite a few times already...
