Crossovers and Other Art

[Milady_Despark]

Hmm....I've not really read the book. (i've read it, but not really have READ it) Mostly 'cause Dickens doesn't interest me as much as Poe and Conan Doyle. I am very interested though.

[Miss_K]

To tell the truth, I haven't read the entire story either. The book we have is missing the entire section on the ghost of Christmas Future! However, I've heard the tale from other sources, so I can picture the scenes well enough.

[Unknown_Northlance]

Yes, Arthur Conan Doyle and Allen Poe are both very intriguing and fun to read after, but I believe you will find that Dickens can be intriguing in his own way.

[Taka_Merespinner1]

Eh. He's alright. I have read some of his other works.

[Miss_K]

I haven't read much of Dickens apart from his more popular novels. However, he is a rather intriguing author.

Alright, here is the first drawing in the trio of A Christmas Carol artworks.

With a touch of my hand: Christmas Past

This drawing features @Milady_Despark as the ghost of Christmas Past and @Draven_Eldercraft as Ebeneezer Scrooge. (Yes, I'm aware he doesn't look very old) The ghost in the window extends her hand to the reluctant fellow in the nightshirt, who is unsure if what he sees before him is merely a hallucination, or the spirit of Christmas Past foretold by the ghost of Jacob Marley, who he also doubted was real. He reluctantly raises his hand to take that of the ghost in the window.

Milady is typically a fiercer character then can be portrayed in the serine figure of the ghost. She may carry a holly branch instead of her usual sabre, however, I did my best to include her necklace and true eye color according to her Role play character search information.

Next up, the ghost of Christmas Present.

I am most assuredly printing this off.

I was wondering about the holly branch. Does the ghost carry it in the story?

tips hat Merci, mademoiselle.

The ghost does indeed carry a branch of holly.

[Milady_Despark]

Ah. Religious significance or.....?

[Eerie_Coppernight]

I'm not entirely sure. The holly was a plant sacred to Christmas, but the ghost's garb is trimmed with summer flowers. Perhaps it is to signify the time of year, but I am only speculating.

[Milady_Despark]

Interesting.... Merci.

[Miss_K]

I'm very glad you like it And yes, as Eerie has already explained, the holly branch is indeed part of the story.

[Emman_Jumpsong1]

Beautiful, just beautiful.

[Miss_K]

Thank you @Emman_Jumpsong1 Now for the second one.

Concerning the Cratchits: Christmas Present

This drawing illiterates the scene when the ghost of Christmas Present (Emman) gave Ebeneezer Scrooge (@Draven_Eldercraft) an in-look on how his employee Bob Cratchit (@Hyde_Dreadline) spent Christmas with his family. The ghost watches Scrooge closely, hoping he will learn something from this experience. Scrooge, on the other hand, is rethinking his life upon seeing how much happiness the Cratchits possess, though they have no logical reason for their joy. The child on Bob's shoulders is Tiny Tim, a cripple boy who isn't expected to live much longer due to his condition.

The ghost of Christmas Present was considered a joyful spirit, which was why I wanted to draw Emman as him for this picture. The hammer he carries is his famous earth hammer, which was fun to create on the page

As for @Hyde_Dreadline being Bob Cratchit, he wasn't here to object . . . (so sorry if you object to this!)

[Emman_Jumpsong1]

That was beautiful. Thanks.

[Miss_K]

You're welcome

[Nola_Applequill1]

@Miss_K - THAT'S INCREDIBLE. BOTH OF THEM!!! EEEEEKS, I'm so excited for the Ghost of Christmas Future! (It's my second favorite ghost... )

[Miss_K]

You'll see him in a moment, I'm uploading the photo now.

[Nola_Applequill1]

Oh my goodness, YAAAAAASS!!! I love your art sooo much!

[Gloria_Oldenpinner]

Say whaaaaaaat! This is an awesome idea, @Miss_K, and the art is marvelous! I didn't expect Draven to be Scrooge, though, or Hyde to be Bob Cratchit! XD I actually cast a bunch of Aetherlighters as characters from the Christmas Carol, and planned on drawing out a sort of 'Aetherlighter Play' comic, but I don't know if I'll do it. I'm glad you came up with this idea, though!
