a belated christmas

Firstly, I thought I'd do this:
[Error: unknown template qotd]Haro!!! I WANT a Haro~! I want a BLACK one. I want a real one that goes "Haro~ Haro~" and jumps up and down and rolls around looking stupid XDDD
So anyway, because I got home and came to be in an incredibly foul mood on Friday night, I drew this:

I know...I draw happy pictures when I'm pissed off. LOL. The sketch was a 40-minute job, so yeah...I didn't even bother drawing the clothes properly. But this is one of my favourite characters ♥ I should draw him more often XD
After I scanned this picture I found out that because my laptop Bluescreen™ed several times, Photoshop insists that I have to reactivate it. Grr.
So this was coloured in OpenCanvas, which I would use more often if only I figured out how to do a channel mask in it. I also don't like its colour picker as much as I do for PS, which makes for a double frustration when my laptop LCD is pretty unreliable - especially when it comes to choosing skin tones. It always ends up either too pink or too yellow or - on a very bad day - too green. OC has a cooler brush system though I don't use it nearly enough to know which ones I want to use. I end up just using the oil marker because that gives me consistent solid colours LOL.
Merry Christmas~ I'm exactly one month late! XD
(PS: I can't believe channel 7 put on the bloody NEWS right in the middle of the Federer vs Berdych match!!! When he was down 2-1!!!! ARGGH. Me and my friend had to watch Federer win that fourth set by watching the live scoreboard on the AusOpen website Orz. At least Fed finally got back on form in the 5th set and breezed through it like he usually does.)
