Dia de Los Muertos J&W

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

When I saw the Halloween Challenge I knew what I wanted to do. I've been obsessed with Day of the dead for a while now. Love drawing stuff for it. Was looking up a book about the customs and the start of the celebration while reading J&W...and...um...this came out. I love how Bertie came out. And Jeeves, though not his hair. It was kind of hard to find something to draw on Jeeves side cause I wanted it to be more somber, but not dark. And I know, Day of the Dead, not Halloween but, still, hope people enjoy it!

This is cool! I love the decorations on Bertie's shirt, and the night and day theme.

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

Bertie's shirt was fun to do. I don't think Jeeves approves of it though...

[princesshannah4.livejournal.com]

Oh goodness. That's actually quite terrifying.

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

heh, thanks. Jeeves side is a bit dark....

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

It works for me! Good show.

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Oh, very nice! Love the decorations/night & day thing! Lovely and colorful :)

[mxdp.livejournal.com]

if I may be as bold to ask; how did you make a link from your drawing? V. neat trick :)

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

Oh, and I used photobucket...after thirty minutes of trying to figure out how...I never knew posting a picture would be so complicated! But yes--photobucket and that whole Insert/edit image button.

[mxdp.livejournal.com]

Well, it shows off! Still using the link system, old goat that I am! ;P

Glad you do, thank you.

Jooster and Día de los Muertos in one pack! Neat. Have you baked your pan de muertos? Cute picture; are they dead or just celebrating, I wonder.

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

We couldn't bake our bread, but we did go out an buy it, along with a few sugar skulls. They're just celebrating. I think Bertie would like the colors and festivities and Jeeves would be more interested in the cultural aspects.

[random-nexus.livejournal.com]

I liked it! Interesting detail on dead!Bertie's collar, as well as how Bertie's all bright and day-time while dead!Jeeves is dark and night. Very nicely done.

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[angelofmadness7.livejournal.com]

It's very nicely done! I like the contrast of light and darkness in the picture works very well <3

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

Thank you :-D

[hazeltea.livejournal.com]

ha!This is great :B

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Wow, this is amazing! I also share a healthy interest in dia de los muertos. I used to go to the celebration in Oakland every year when I lived there.
Have you ever played the game Grim Fandango? I think you would find it quite enticing. :)

[emeraldreeve.livejournal.com]

Well done!

[niektete.livejournal.com]

Oh, my! It's beautiful! And they are sort of like day and night, aren't they - different and complementary at the same time ^^

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

I was just looking at this again. This picture would make terrific icons.

[dancingthree.livejournal.com]

That be awesome! If you or someone else want to do some icons, by all means.

[storyfan.livejournal.com]

a couple of people on my flist make great icons. I'll ask if they can try to do some this weekend and let you know.
