In the Happy Cab, we got Jak and Cal in the back, Storm turkered out with Harli who's no doubt like "Oh good, the big singing raptor thing is going to sit with us!"
Mortimer is sitting shotgun trying to strike up what looks like a conversation with the Happy Cabby himself, we all know what he's thinking.
Stumbling merrily towards the cab Tony, Meli and Ig, leaving Giome, "Everyone left their God-Damn coat!"

Yay, Happy New Year, eurryone!

I love how you really captured everyone's personalities in this! (I'm loving Giome having a tantrum especially, haha!!) This is pretty. :)

I'm really wishing I waited a little while and coloured mine first before uploading, lol!! >.>

Oh, wow, that would be awesome! I'm working on a comic page right now, but I'll start colouring my picture as soon as I'm done that. :D

That's just too cool! Future CG looks cray-zee.

I'll get to mine eventually. My idea sounds pretty fun to do, I just gotta find time to do it.

Our House

Post by VeryCuddlyCornpone »

Sssooo modern-day college type house party
i took a few liberties

Image
Rosemary and Mortimer from The Mansion of E and Cecilia and Cal from my comic.
Rosemary didn't strike me as much of a drinker, so Cecilia is pouring her a cup of imported Serbian lemon-lime soda, "Fizzle McDuffies." Mortimer is helping Cal prepare some finger foods, and she is quite pleased with how well he rolled the mini hot dogs.


Image
Sylvester from The Mansion of E, Nolan and Cara from Flying Tigers, and Aggie from my comic
Aggie hopped out onto the roof for a smoke, talking to Sylvester about his Mansion and his earl-ness and all that- she thinks he might be a little high, but he's friendly and interesting to talk to, so who is she to judge? It's a pretty cold New Year's Eve for a pair of Aussies, so Nolan and Cara are cuddled up tight waiting for Aggie and Sylvester to leave. Everybody left the window wide open, letting the house heat out like they were raised in a barn.


Image
Whini from Masadjra, Freakboy from Freakboy Did a Bad Thing, Jak from Breath of Life, Ashley from Schoob's unnamed project, and Marie and Tony from my comic.
Everyone's in the den for a few rounds of Rock Band. Whini is pretty annoyed with Freakboy and thinks he sucks at the game and is the reason they keep losing. Freakboy is trying really damn hard but this guitar fuckin sucks, he keeps telling everyone it's busted. In the back, Jak and Marie had too much Fizzle McDuffies and are bouncing around on a sugar high, scream-singing along with the songs being played. Tony is determined to perfect this round before he allows himself to advance to "Hard Mode." Ash is just chillin, happy to have a night out hanging out with new people.


Image
Seth from Schoob's unnamed project, Storm, Harli, and Brad from Flying Tigers, Rat from Masadjra, Giome from Breath of Life, and Eddie, Leon, and Joseph from my comic.
Seth's getting ready to enjoy a mini hot dog, but is too busy laughing at Brad trying to photobomb Harli and Rat's selfie. The girls don't care too much, they'll just take another one after he's gone. In the back is a friendly game of beer pong, Storm and Eddie are getting their butts kicked by Giome and Leon. Storm playfully smacktalks her opposition, but Eddie doesn't seem to give a shit as he's gonna be wasted soon anyway. Leon is highly impressed by Giome's precision throwing skills. I guess we're like, creepily peeking through the basement window or something because Joseph sees us, anyway he knows what's good and hopes you have a good year.





Here's the full house if you want it for some reason
And I broke them down if you guys want just the "rooms" your characters are in:
Schoob's dudes
LC's dude
[geoduck]'s dudes
djracodex and Peripheral Descent's dudes

Cuddly that is freakin' awesome!!
Damn I really have to step my game for the next swap (whenever that is) and, you know, just in general.
I am just totally blown away...

I was like scroll down... Hey Nol and Cara getting all snuggly that's cute...
scroll down...wait that dude looks familiar, no way!...
scroll down...is that? and those two?...
Holy crap, I feel lazy!


And I just love some of the character touches, like Nol's sneakers and Harli wearing shorts.
Everyone just looks so perfect in your style.

And I'm gonna stop now because I am gushing like a fangirl.

Oh and I posted the full pic on my site.

Awww thanks Schoob! Glad you liked it :) I know I'm always one of the last people to put stuff up when it's swap time so I figured I ought to make it worth the wait this time, and it was a lot of fun to do. I really enjoyed getting to draw you guys' characters and break out of my "comfort zone" a bit, you know? Plus I got to try out some coloring techniques which is always a good thing. :)

HOLY CRAP!!

You drew 23 CHARACTERS
And FOUR BACKGROUNDS (DETAAAAAILED)
And there's something unique happening in each one! Whoah!

This is really, really cool. And holy crap this must have taken a while. (I didn't have the patience even for mine, I posted it as soon as I got the linework done - I can't imagine finishing one, two and three pictures without posting one, haha!)

Oh shit, i hadn't even counted the characters. I was just like, well there's four in this room, four over there, a big group in this part and so forth... 23 makes it sound like a really big accomplishment lmao!!! I'm glad you liked it! It actually didn't take me that long to do I don't think? An hour here and there, it went quite quickly :P

HUGS FOR EVERYONNNNEE

The lineart was already posted back on page 1, so everyone's already seen it anyways, BUT! I don't wanna be a minority, lol. I'll have patience next time.

YES THEY'RE BAGEL BITES <3 Ohmygod when I was in sixth grade I would eat a tray of those every day when I got home from school, how was I not tremendously large.

WHINI HAS AN ARM TATTOO BUT I DON'T KNOW WHY


Yeah, when I was drawing this, I was like, awww, look, everyone gets along so well! What luck that all our characters have such great chemistry! Then I was like fuuck they're just drawn this way.

These turned out great! You really got the "party atmosphere" down, and everyone has a little story going on. The coloring and backgrounds look great, too.

I should be able to get to mine pretty soon.
