Description "What was it you wanted to tell me, Reggie?"

He blessed the cold to conceal his red cheeks; his heart was jumping like a frog possessed. In his breast pocket was the letter containing the truth of his feelings, written in his more lucid, lovesick moments. He had never felt as clearheaded as he did now.

Courage, man, he thought, and cleared his throat.

It's been too long since I've done a good Hatter drawing. I missed these two. I just wrote the bit above on the fly -- it has nothing to do with When Curiosity Met Insanity (though I hope we get something along those lines!). I was thinking of the part in Pride & Prejudice when Mr. Darcy reconfesses his love to Lizzie on their walk.

I know I'm jumping the gun on the holiday season a little, but I can't wait.

I screwed around with the colors quite a bit, and I think I like these the best. I've been wearing that golden yellow a lot lately, and I've always loved that robin's egg blue. Alice isn't sporting a hip little bob cut, her hair is just tucked into her coat.

The background trees are from a PS brush set from Brusheezy.com.

Ah ha! I just realized I can knock off another item on my Hatter25 challenge! The title's been changed accordingly.

props: Reggie the hatter belongs to and
materials: Ink on paper + PS7
music: Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite, "Pas de Deux"

hmm....ok i love this pic!

i have a really stupid idea for reg...
ok so basicly its like beauty and the beast but insted ...
ok so Reg was a nononsence man so one day a fairy came to him and he captured her to show to the head of all the scientific peeps, at this she got angery and made him the most nonseish man ever and the thing is, he was compleatly unhappy with his life until he meet Alice because he compleatly drove away all his 'friends' and family with his insanity so the fairy retured his evil for a good and gave him happieness.

I... I think this is my favorite picture of these two I've seen so far. Or one of them, at least. I think it's the expressions on their faces, the wonderful colors you used, and there's just something about Reggie's hair that makes me love him even more. Congradulations, you really deserve it.

Lovin' the expressions

And Alice's outfit, and Reggie's hair (goodness, I pick the weirdest of things to focus on...)

And the fact that the whole thing just looks so sweet and soft~

I liked the picture instantly but the little mini story in your artist's comments made me LOVE it. And I quite like the choice of colors as well.

*Raises hand* question.. is that part at the begining a quote from Rain's story or did you just come up with that yourself?

I love the allusion to Pride and Prejudice! As well as the fact that, for once, Reg isn't wearing clashing colors This is such an adorable piece - you did such an excellent job on his expression! I can practically hear his heart thumping just looking at it.

unsinkable-apple [2009-06-23 22:00:50 +0000 UTC]

I love her hair tucked into the back of her coat. It adds to the mood so perfectly. For some lovely, unidentifiable reason, Alice looks like perfection in this piece. I guess winter's just her season.
