I love seeing the Go-Backs in December. This is such a frosty image, I can almost feel the cold.

Frosty! The den looks really warm and welcoming. I really like the lighting here, it's just what a winter night is like!

Thank you!! Yes, my central idea was this contrast between warm and cool. It's something I have always loved about the Go-Back's world. And I am a fan of winter and of coming inside on a cold day like that.
Man, I struggled here... Adobe Sketch isn't updated anymore and there seem to be more and more bugs now... So from now on I will try to use Procreate. But in researching the Go-Back's lodge for my drawing, I think I noticed for the frist time that the entrance is shaped like a face with a gaping mouth! Talk about details and noticing things after over 30 years of consuming Elfquest! Kudos to Wendy for drawing all those details and enriching the world of Elfquest. |

I guess I am too shy to use few colours. This one is very effective in that, blue, white, grey and black, but it works, and a single spot of contrast with the warm light from the cave. Though it is in competition with the cold two-moons-light. But the warm light shines like an invitation, while the female snow elf in the center invitites, but we need a bit more rational thought for that, not just a reflex, to recognize her face and gesture, that this is likely meant as a "Hello, welcome (back?), come near, it's warm inside!" But thus it speaks on two levels to the observer.
It's a bit hard to guess what the other guarding elf seems to think. Is it a wary glance over to her? Ah, I miss these iced trees. Hopefully this winter will still bring some moments of snow. |

It turns out very beautiful even by the Adobe Sketch issues.
That the entrance is shaped like a face I always pushed aside as a young reader. I though I see it just because I always see a face or figure in everything. But if you see it too, the shape must be meant by Wendy. I love that - it really enriches the world! That you choose to draw the entrance from the side is a nice touch. To see the light fall out of it and onto the snow is a very good choice! Love the greeting (Kahvi?) and the chilling Go Back on the snow. It really looks frosty. |

Oh, now that you mention it, I can absolutely see the troll mouth! I also really love the intensity of the blues and that winter landscape! Too bad about the program, it's always so annoying when it gives trouble.
