Hallowe'en Night

Description

Titlefail.

So this is my entry for *zraya218's and *BarkBack's Hallowe'en contest. I've chosen option one, which was to draw one of their characters (I did both, so sue me) and one of mine doing something Hallowe'en related.

Here we see Zraya and Hanako going out on Hallowe'en for some trick-or-treating. I was going to do costumes, but then I decided to be "brilliant" and leave them as they are. No one would suspect them to go as themselves. People will just think that they have really good Zraya and Hanako costumes.^^ *shotforbeinglazy*

They haven't fooled Paparazzi, though, who's following them around so that he can find out and report what kind of candy they get. Top news, you know.

I'm sure they probably know he's there, but even so, if they turned around, he'd jump out of the way and hide somewhere (maybe behind one of those pumpkins).

I'm actually really happy with the outcome of this. I was worried at first because when I scanned it, on my monitor (of my desktop) it looked really bad, but it doesn't look too bad on my laptop. Hopefully you guys see what I see. The original of course looks the best, but meh.

I think what I'm happiest with is that it actually looks like it's darkish where they are. I had no idea how I was going to manage that, but with a bunch of experimenting with black and brown shading (mostly brown) I got this.

It was a pain in the butt trying to match Hanako's colours with pencil crayons (or coloured pencils, whatever), but I think I managed. Haha, I used, let's see, 16 colours for the entire picture, 8 of which went into Hanako. XD Lots of mixing colours, I assure you.

Simple background because I'm not that creative, but I like it.

It was fun. Even if I don't place, I'm glad I decided to participate!

And that Jack-o-latern is win. Don't deny it.

Probably full view is best.

Used Zraya's and Barkback's character references.
Also used some photo refs for the poses.
The background is all me (I'm sure that's evident).
