Artist's Comments

Seamus Bander from 's story trying to strike a conversation with little seal pup. I don't think either of them understand what the other says though ;)

It started off as little sketch inspired from my seal spotting. Originally I plan to do the usual inking then scan or color but then realized that the paper is the super-bleeding kind so had to scrap that. As it happened, I just recently figured out how to use the pen tool in photoshop and was quite curious to see how well I did and the result is this. It's also my first serious attempt at chibi, which is more difficult than expected ^^;

P.S. come to think of it, add whiskers, and voila! he looks like a seal :D

Also, any tip on vector will be much appreciated :)

Oooh, cute! Well done for your first attempt at chibi. :clap:

The faces are so cute. Yeah, chibi is much more difficult than what people assume. This isn't extreme chibi, which would have been a major disaster for your first attempt. But advice for this, um... I really don't know. ^_^;

:+favlove: He's adorable! Yes, he would look like a little seal if you gave him the whiskers :D I finally finished the seventh scene today, which makes this even more exciting. Ee! I'm so happy that I'm getting fanart! :heart:

If holidays were twelve months long
And life were games and fun
And all the skies
Were filled with PSI's
...Would thinking still get done?

Thank you! I guess the difficulty of drawing chibi (for me) lays in its simpleness; You have to convey so much with very few lines, and still make it cute. Hopefully I"ll get better at drawing it^^;

I think it seems that alot of artists have a sort of 'niche.' Mine I surprisingly found that I could draw cute. You did a such a good job on this pic though, I'm surprised you had a hard time.
