Celebrate the Season II

I didn't have the heart to delete the older version, so instead I've moved it to scraps.

I like this one a lot better. I think I finally have a style and I'm going to stick with it. After all these years of experimenting, too...

Here is the original description of the image:

So, you ever have the one pairing that transcends fandom? Like, no matter what obsession you're immersed, you'll always be happy to read fanfiction or look at fanart for that one, special pairing? THE ULTIMATE OTP?

Yeah, these guys are it for me.

I've never drawn fanart of them because, well... I couldn't, really. Quatre always gave me problems... but I was DETERMINED to make a holiday pic with them if it KILLED me. I'd wanted to upload it a little closer to Christmas, but I figured, eh... what the hey? If Hallmark could start airing commercials before Halloween had even ended, then I can upload a pic on November 27th. XD And besides that, it's more of a wintery pic than a holiday one.

I'd originally intended to go for a more painted effect, but my brain apparently forgot about that until half-way through and, instead, went on auto-pilot cel-shading. I think I kinda like this better than what I had been envisioning with the painted effect, anyway. It's softer... like snoooow. ^_^

So yeah, not my best, but definitely not my worst. And now, I'll shut up.
