Glimps DT: Christmas in Copics

Hello everyone! I'm back to share a Christmas Copic card I made for my Glimps DT post, featuring an adorable Santa called Babbo Pacchetto!

Since I love making CAS scene cards, I decided to create a background for my Santa. 

I created the mountain adding a bit of G20 and BV20 to avoid having a flat white mountain, then I drew a few trees in E70, YG03, 17, 67 and then coloured the sky using B00 and B02. I have kept things simple, but I will add a few details to the background at the end.

I then coloured the skin (E000, 00, 11, 71 and R20 for the cheeks) and white for my Santa (W0, 1, 3 for the clothes and C0, 1, 3 for the beard and eyebrows). It's always best to colour light parts before colouring dark parts to avoid dragging dark colours accidentally with your light markers. 

I then coloured the white of the snow using BG000, C1 and B60.

Next I continued with my Santa. The reds are C5, R35, 37, 39, the black is C5, 7, 9, and the present is Y11, 23, 26, YG95, 99.

Now to add a few extra details: green Copic multiliner on the trees and a bit of snow in acrylic paint, a few highlights too and some dots on the present in gel pen.
