Description Benson/Regular Show = J.G. Quintel
Evelyn/"Asleep in a Blizzard" = Rinnysega
Inked in Illustrator CS6
Colored in Corel Painter 11



OKAY. It's done! My final artwork for 2012. I can't come up with a good title, so anyone have any ideas lemme have 'em!

Anyway, this is another sketch I had inked during my Illustrator CS6 trial WAY back in September, was saving it for when I could make up my mind how to color it. I decided I'd give lineless art another try, only do it much more detailed than before. I actually made light use of UnReadableMind's "Random Little Evelyn" as a reference since drawing glass isn't my forte, but at the same time I wasn't looking to make it "life-like" realistic (yet. in time ). I look at this piece as a skills practice sorta thing to get more experience in lineless coloring. Tell ya the truth, I really like how Benson's crank turned out....ha ha "crank" ha "TURNED" ahahahaaaaa.... oh 50 shades of wrong what I just said ....

For the background, to go with the fanfiction "Asleep in a Blizzard", I chose to have Benson and Evelyn standing in freshly fallen snow AFTER the blizzard to symbolize that the turmoil they both had gone through is finally over . Then they can have a mocha latte with marshmellows later on and maybe a nice dinner

FOR YOU, RINNYSEGA! Consider it my Happy New Year's art to you. Hope you like it

The first thing that caught my eye here is the contrast between the detail inside Evelyn and the stark, bold lines elsewhere. Maybe there's a little theme there of there always being more to people on the inside than we might first assume... either way it's a very striking look.

The shading is very warm and inviting, perfect for a festive-themed picture like this with plenty of snow. The brightness around the right-hand side of each of their bowls is masterful. Evelyn's beret is brilliantly done as well.

The only *tiny* flaw I see is that the bottom of the scarf looks a little flat and uncertainly covered by snow at the edges, but this is a really, really minor point.

Overall this is superb and very appropriate for the time of year, and a fitting tribute to what I guess is your OTP!

Ah-huh... I knew someone else would notice that scarf...and the snow around it. My uncertainty about covering it just right was dead obvious . God KNOWS I did, guess I need to get some scarf references and fix it later. But I'm glad that was the ONLY flaw and it was minor at that.

Thanks for your critique, I truly enjoyed and appreciated it

Seriously, it was REALLY minor. My wife loved this too, and she's not into the fandom like I am, so consider that really high praise

If I ever get a gumball machine and snowglobe (at the same time for some reason) I'm naming them both Benson and Evelyn.

Thanks. One of the rare nights I stayed up til 5am to finish it. Totally worth it! And yeah, I liked the heart too much to leave it as a flat colored heart
