Ahahahah!
OMG I love that grumpy face!!
I'm glad you pushed through the frustration stage and made this.
(Lol! I really like the idea of a bait snowoman...just standing there waiting to lure in unsuspecting snow-groping pervs X'D).
Terish has a glorious main of hair, and that's a great mid-throw action pose you've given her.

That's the best kind of face to draw X'D
Hahah...yeah most likely. The inner perv would find it hard to resist.
Nothing wrong with using references. It turned out great.

Oh my gosh it's wonderful! (and don't worry about taking your time, I can empathise with your situation)
I love how it really does look as though Terish just zoomed out of nowhere with a blitzkrieg attack (with another shot already lined up, hopefully to land right in the kisser) - that expression needs to be repaid with something after all (it's such a great expression though, perhaps it may freeze that way and possibly improve the overall *gestures at face* thing). I also love Terish's sneaky and amused one, the assface is more glorious when slushed.
I also appreciate the snow...woman (?)'s curvaceous buttocks there. I like the notion that it was bait lol, but really I probably expect it started off that way and now Quint is making 'amendments' - you know, to make it defy the laws of nature and physics with its proportions.
I also like how their snow gear reflects their natural backgrounds, what with Terish and her greens furs, and Quint and his yellows and browns (gosh it's been forever hasn't it?)
Yes the beard would be a great idea, then the pesky snow might be repelled by his Manliness.
Terish's hair is like a lion's mane, adversaries look at it and judge that a fight is just not worth it with someone of that ultimate power (actually the beard might have been a means to counter that and offset the balance, her hair was starting to develop its own aggressive personality)
This is such fun!

I still feel bad, though. I didn't want you to think I took your art and ran...
the background isn't much, I should have made some trees for her to hide in, but I just... wasn't enjoying this picture at all :T of course, I started drawing it late last night and forced myself to go to bed around 2AM... then I finished it this morning
the idea of Quint's face being permanently stuck in "stink eye" mode is kind of horrifying.
I don't really like Terish's face... not to say I drew a bad face, it just doesn't look how I imagine Terish, ya know? you've seen all those women I uploaded onto the tirellius family pinterest board, that's about what I want for her.
it gets a nice rosy glow to it after a stinging slap of wet ice crystals, and his voice has an angelic tone to it when it's yelling obscenities. Music to her ears~!
I can't imagine quint joining in, I imagine him marching off in a pissy huff.
lol he's going to give her a snow face lift... and boob job.
I don't really like the color palette, it's too muted and feels dusty, but i was sort of eye balling it based off your old ref of Quint, and for Terish I just guessed lol.
she usually has it tied up, cause otherwise it's unmanageable but it's winter so she needs all the padding I imagine she sleeps with it down and it nearly smothers Quint in his sleep *inhales mouthfuls*
I imagine all woodfolk have pretty wild hair, and the bigger the better.
honestly you could probably pull on it and she wouldn't feel anything, you'd just get sucked in like a trap.
I kind of want to see the two of them nose to nose to show off how tall she looks compared to him due to her mane.

Don't feel bad, I think it's great.
Nah I actually don't think it needs a background, this way it looks like she may have been hiding in a snow drift lol, which is even better as she came out of nowhere. That's fine, I've had pictures I wasn't enjoying while working on, we all have those days.
At least if his face got stuck that way he'd have an excuse for his ugliness.
Ah yeah I get what you mean, though to be fair, often when we draw a character they don't turn out exactly as we'd like unless we draw them repeatedly. Though I have to admit that there's a sort of Merida quality to her here.
She sure knows how to make him so much MORE appealing.
Nah he might, with a great show of force which is hilariously misplaced *gathers lots of snow together but can't make a decent snowball*
and a butt lift too - it's difficult to add to perfection, but he's going to try
I don't think so personally, but to make it pop you could play around with adjustment layers. I always like adding light blasts on an overlay layer to blind with colour intensity!
Lol, one day she might just wake up and he'll have been swallowed. So sad, a widow so young, oh well, maybe she'll do better with the next husband she finds (that was her plan all along). Not only does he have to worry about murder by hair, but let's not forget the bear.
Big hair is probably a sign of status, beauty, and strength in Woodfolk - even the babies have huge hair

She has escape tunnels all under there so she can attack and disappear, then reappear elsewhere.
Oh I know that feeling, that's why I took a step back and told myself to just draw what I want, even if it won't be uploaded at all. Part of that feeling is due to expectation we believe others have for our art, like we need to produce something amazing. Once you get past that, you'll find yourself enjoying art more and drawing a little more too. Try it, draw something you want, not to be shared. It can be crappy as hell.
Oh I have a bunch of tutorials on Pinterest, I can share the board with you, it has some useful ones for portraits if you feel like messing around with portraiture. If I had a decent neat sketch I'd send you one to mess with but the lines are so messy it'd be confusing.
It's a Quint characteristic, ugly is as ugly does, why try to be anything else!
Maybe you could portrait practice on her, or Petrish instead if you find her more exciting.
I have no idea! Whatever he was doing before her! (OK that sounded bad)
That's exactly what I imagined, just throwing loose powder in a pathetic display. Plus it'd give her a chance to vent some frustration on him lol. Nothing like a snowball fight to show your desire.
Oh yes indeed.
Adjustment layers are things like 'multiply' and 'overlay' but you can also set them up to change colour intensity as an actual layer you can edit the highlights and shadows of without messing up your work.
'you have served me well,'
Yes perhaps it would be a good custom, I have my central forest lands in my original fantasy stories the same custom, only it was purely a sign of shame rather than voluntary mourning.
Ah but she can see better in the dark than them, so they'd best be careful lest she decide to sneak into their goes and cut off all that lovely hair. (she'd never do it but it's still a thought!) it's something young Quint would have done!

wow that's a great idea *pops in and out like a weasel*
I don't really care about the expectation of others on here, I mean, I like getting comments just because comments are fun to read. but I mostly art for myself anyway.
I just want to know how to do it so I don't waste time doing it wrong, ya know?
I think you shared it with me, and I accepted it, but it doesn't show up for me :T
portrait practice?
it did sound bad lol, but honestly, not far off from what he'd probably say.
I don't know, it would take a lot of snowballs to totally vent out her frustration and energy, she can go on for days.
lol those snowballs are made with love honey
oh yeah those. I use those sometimes... mainly for collages.
oh well I don't want to copy you or anything.
true! though Petrish is too nice to do something like that. she may have her daddy's eyes and hair but not his personality.
