Under the Mistletoe...

Amon and Robin from the anime series Witch Hunter Robin

My entry for the ~WHR-Club Holiday contest.

Wow, where do I start with this one? I am so very frustrated that I worked for such a long time on this piece and just couldn't get it to look how I envisioned. I had to redraw a lot of parts from the original sketch and start from scratch a time or two. I didn't draw the mistletoe in the original drawing, so I had no frame of reference when I went to finish the image and had to come up with the lame snow background instead. However, in the end, I figured it was better to submit something I was dissatisfied with than not enter anything at all. So, here's my humble offering.

Oh right, references. The faces and Amon's hair were done from memory (which is why Amon's nose is off). Robin's hair and the shading were referenced from many screenshots.

Uh, this will be the first time I ask people not to critique one of my works. Trust me, I already know what's wrong with it.
