Artist's Comments

My trade for :icongreensprite:, who only wanted a picture with orange scarf coming out of it and a little bit of nature.

After some pondering I saw it as a good opportunity to draw Snufkin, who's personality she'd might find as appealing as I (and many many others) do. :heart:


Painted with gouache (watercolors)

Muikkunen for Greensprite by *tir-ri is whimsical amidst the gray color palette and is both lovely and thought-provoking! (Featured by ^ArtisticAunJuli)

Oh, tiri...you are spoiling me so much. I am so happy to look at this.

Such a delicious reward today for my little self. (I take your pics as reward. :p )

I really love it...I almost see it moving, sudenly panels of paper dancing, making the sea shiver with that typical "shhh" sound...and the flatering scarf...moving clouds....I almost see a thunder-bolt comming from between them...

Hm...this actually gave me a memory of one very lovely song, which you might know or not:

I have no idea who this is (what fandom) but I like the presentation... you are skilled tiri and I am enjoying it with each new deviation more and more.

Ryuk is sexy - like me

Gah, who's spoiling who too much with such flattering??! You make me purr so muuuuuuch... *melts into fuzzy feeling*

I actually own one of the Smashing Pumpkins cd's, but I've never heard this song before (sounds lovely)!

As for Snufkin, he's one of the Moomin characters:[link]
Very popular here in Finlad, even the wonderful creator of the series has already passed away.

You just made my day, honey! :love:

Such a lovely portrayal of a major part of my chaildhood. It's interesting how you've managed to capture him so well without loosing your own style.

And a very important part of childhood that is! #^__^#

Thank you!
It was a very spontaneous scetch of him, so I'm happy that it payd of 8D
:iconskitsoneito:
ah, nuuskis! '3' there's no man like him.
itekki just eilen....vai toissapäivänä, doodlasin kyseisen häiskän. :D
:icontir-ri:
Ei ole ei (vaikka lienee hiukan kieroutunutta ihastua muksuna satuhahmoihin)! <3

Bisho-nuuskis tulossa vai? 8D
Olisi kyllä hauska nähdä!
:iconradio-flare:
Oh God, this brings back so many childhood memories...
Those books are so great. And so is this drawing!
I especially like how you drew his scarf and waves - I can almost feel the wind blowing when I look at this picture. :)
:iconwrzosowata:
Only one word - beautiful... :herat:
:iconapplesong:
.... holy shit I'm seriously in love with this.

Hmgnshdn I can't even.. oh wow.
The colours are gorgeous. Very pleasing to my eye, at least. I never knew a grayish sea could look that good.

The little hand is so sweet. Not hinting it'd be TOO small it's just.. nmhngn nomnom thin wrists and fingers. And how you did the smoke and piiipe! ;3;

"Orange scarf and a little bit of nature" and this amazing thing is what you come up with. INSANE.
Uwah but the scarf is very nice indeed. How it's all torn-up in his travels, maw.
HIS HAT LOOKS SO COOL. EVERYTHING DOES. And I never get tired of original takes on (semi-)popular characters. I'm faving this FOREVER.

(And most importantly:
I LOVE HOW YOU DIDN'T DRAW HIM AS A BISHIE. D8)

... nii oishan sitä suomeaki voinu puhua, se aina unohtuu.
:iconskitsoneito:
hahaa, emmiekään ny pelkki bishejä piirrä... ihan.... perus... nuuskis. :p
