This is my entry for the 2014 Dreamkeepers Halloween contest. This idea came to me pretty late, but I really like how this one ended up. Actually, this is one of the few things I've ever drawn that came out almost exactly how I imagined it, start to finish. I am especially pleased with the lighting from the jack-o-lanterns.
I really wish I had more time to draw fanarts like this.

A little closer look reveals dark Dreamkeepers. Thought it was suppose to be like a nice stroll through the woods at night. Guess not.
Actually, is Tinsel in the background, too? I couldn't spot her.
You know what? There is no Tinsel. I considered putting her in there, but because her hair is shiny I was afraid it would have thrown off the mood and lighting.
Anyways overall really awesome work and I always enjoy seeing what you've drawn and conversing with you;Keep on rocking and have a spooky Halloween!
As always, thanks for the feedback!
You've always been an excellent friend and I wish you a pleasant Halloween!
You say this is traditional, but it looks digital. did you not upload the traditional version?
The original drawing is done traditionally, yes. The coloring was done in Photoshop, but that's traditional inking there. If you want I can upload the drawing before the coloring happens to my Stash or something. I've never been good at digital inking, it comes out really awkward and wonky whenever I try.
Oh that's what you mean. I do the same exact thing. I draw it traditionally, and ink it traditionally, and then color it digitally.
