I had this idea to do a manga style Christmas illustration inspired by Zooey Deschanels character from the film Elf.  I remember it being really 00s quirky hot and felt it was a good homage to the iconic film. I have also been watching the Frieren anime and thought I could bring a little of her smile and big elf eared style to the character.

I give her a bit of a bulge at the top to show some activity and then some big stretchmark lines inspired by another artist who's brother makes amazing art but has no online presence. That done I stole a background of an AI Christmas background scene and put it in and changed the tone to be a bit colder and added some nice snow using a free brush.

But then I re-opened CSP and discovered the file was GONE! Just gone..I checked all the folders and the name I thought I saved it under. Gonzo! I was so bumped I couldn't even consider trying to remake it again for a whole day. But then today I came back and went to open CSP and its most recent saved files. Low and behold there she was! In all her turgid glory!


I made my finishing touches and now she is ready for publishing.

I want to thank all my Patrons for all their amazing support for me this year especially! Without you guys I couldn't make this art so I hope you all have an amazing Christmas! Then I want to thank everyone who has followed me, liked, saved and commented on my work. 

Comments mean alot to me, especially in this age of CONSUMING and moving onto the next piece of content. In an age of rampant art theft and AI Imagery, it means alot that great people take a few moments out of their day to say something in the comment section. Thank you everyone!
