Good Omens Exchange 2007 is now open for giving!

Giftee: lemonfruitpie
Giver: ave_eva
Title: Holiday Cheer
Characters: Aziraphale/Crowley
Rating: G
Blurb: Happy Holidays, lemonfruitpie! I hope you enjoy your gift. :) I managed the snow and the humor, though it's more slapstick than snark . . . I had intended to get them into Victorian gear as well, but alas, I couldn't handle Crowley without his sunglasses.









Enjoy!

*snert* That's wonderful! Just what Crowley would do... and Aziraphale, too. Hee.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much!

[quantum-witch.livejournal.com]

Oh I adore this! The angular lines of Crowley vs. the soft pudge of Aziraphale makes me squee :D Plus I couldn't stop giggling over the manifested halo at the end. Riiiiight, he's so very holy! XD

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

*grin* Isn't he just? I couldn't resist adding the touch of extra symbolism there. Glad you like!

Whee!

[prestissima.livejournal.com]

Ooh, fun paneling! Nice job! My favourite part is when Aziraphale is adjusting his glasses.

Re: Whee!

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks! That's my favorite panel too, actually. :)

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

*g* Glad you agree, and glad you like.

[lies-d.livejournal.com]

Ha, that's great. I too greatly admire Aziraphale's cute pudginess, and your willingness to draw him that way. Kudos. Love the second mistletoe panel - Crowley's angular face is especially nice in that one, and they contrast each other very well. I also like the glasses adjust - arched eyebrow FTW.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Well, I have to admit that I used to have a lot of trouble drawing Aziraphale the way I imagine him--but that is definitely how I see him when I'm reading the book. ^^

Thanks very much!

[orngsnapdragon.livejournal.com]

Hee, I also really like the glasses adjusting. This is very cute. Foiled again Crowley!

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

*g* Thank you!

[aviss.livejournal.com]

Lovely! that is so very like Crowley, and of course the angel would know and retaliate... what a perfect way to start the exchange! Great job Secret Artist!

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I'm really glad you like it!

[hsavinien.livejournal.com]

*giggle* Niiice.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks. ^^

[luzula]

Oh, I really like your Aziraphale!

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I'm glad!

[shadowvalkyrie.livejournal.com]

"X-D
Poor Crowley! (Though it really is his own fault!)
Aziraphale's halo in the end is priceless!
Love for the art, as well!

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Crowley does bring these things on himself. ;)

Thank you.

[caitirin.livejournal.com]

Adorable!

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[carmine-ink.livejournal.com]

Haha! Adorable comic! ;)

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[emerald-embers.livejournal.com]

*adores*!

Squishy angel and angular demon make me squeeful with joy, but the little halo as the snow plops down at the end is especially wonderful ^^.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much. ^^ I'm glad everyone seems to like the contrasting body types; they were fun to do.

[the-leechwife.livejournal.com]

Oh I love your Aziraphale!

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[dreya-uberwald.livejournal.com]

Hee, so adorable. I love how you've done Aziraphale; especially the halo at the end.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks. :)

[waxbean.livejournal.com]

this is just precious! I love it.

excellent characterizations.

and damn, Crowley's cheekbones are delicious.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Mmm, thanks. ^^

[rasetsunyo.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHA terrific! I love the panel with Aziraphale looking unamused. :D

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks! That was a lot of fun to draw. :)

[sticktothestory.livejournal.com]

Hee, this was fun. I especially liked Crowley's acceptance at the end - perhaps this is not the first time those particular wiles have been thwarted.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

Thanks! The way I see it, Aziraphale is a good match for him, and Crowley is sometimes just happy to enjoy the fact. ;) "Just enough of a bastard" and all that.

Possibly it's one sally in a never-ending snowball fight of good vs. evil.

[savethedistress.livejournal.com]

Ohmigosh, his halo. That is the most adorable thing ever. Crowley looks so sneaky and devious and Aziraphale is so gloriously snarky in his vengeance.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

*g* Thank you so much.

[lemonfruitpie.livejournal.com]

OH WOW! This is SO rad<3<3<3 My gosh I love the way you drew Aziraphale (pudgy! YES!), and the beautiful inks are just to die for (mmm texture). I love your style, and the way you portrayed the contrast between the two. I also love your sound effects--they're done very well, and not intrusive or out of place. My favorite panels are #4 on page one and page two. :)

And not only is it gorgeous, it's also funny to boot. That's a very Crowley thing to do; I can totally imagine that happening. Same thing with Aziraphale's comeback. The evil expressions on the kids are priceless too. Augh, this is way too cute, I'm gushing like crazy.

I'm so happy! :D Thank you very much Secret Artist! This is a real nice treat after a long day and horrible final projects, and I really appreciate all the effort you put into this.<3

p.s. Now that I think about it, I find Crowley sans sunglasses hard to handle as well :0

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

I'm so pleased that you like it! I'm particularly relieved that you don't think the sound effects are intrusive . . . I'm never quite sure if they fit in with the rest of my style, but I rather enjoy using them. And shading's my favorite thing to do, ever. ^^ I'm glad that you like my Aziraphale, too, since there seems to be a certain divide in the fandom regarding his looks.

Plus, I'm happy that I could improve your day--much sympathy on the finals and such. This was some lovely feedback to receive, so thank you. :)

[lemonfruitpie.livejournal.com]

I'm glad that you like my Aziraphale, too, since there seems to be a certain divide in the fandom regarding his looks.

Yea, I've noticed that! But no wonder, given how little they actually describe him in the book.

No, thank YOU! :) I'm still giggling in glee over this gift. Thanks again<3

[tsuru-san.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, so awesome! Crowley would definitely cook up some scheme like that...

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

*grin* Yeah, it seemed like his style. Glad you like.

[argyleheir.livejournal.com]

Ahaha. Love this.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

I'm glad! Thanks. :)

[mediasavant.livejournal.com]

Love it! Aziraphale really does have a little bit of a bastard in him! LOL

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

*grin* Well, I always thought so. Glad you like it!

[sanomi.livejournal.com]

Oh man, delightfully fun! :D The story totally gives the feel of something that would definitely happen. And I love the black and white inking, looks very nice.

[secret-kracken.livejournal.com]

(If there's any point in still being anonymous!)

Thanks so much; very glad you like it. :)

[kaoro.livejournal.com]

Teh raised eyebrow MWAHAHAH It was absolutely brilliant.
Poor Crowley, almost feel bad for him.
