Artist's Comments

This is a shot out to my friend Leigh ([link]), who donned the Rainbow Brite costume for a third Halloween in a row, ever perfecting its sublte nuances.

My greatest achievement here was making a painting of an eighties cartoon character, naming it after a Ronnie James Dio song, and making it work.

This has got to be one of the spiffiest depictions of Rainbow Brite that I've ever seen!
:iconindiochink:
Oh my god... you certainly bring characters in a different light :XD: Lol, she looks like she's related to Chucky. Nice job man
:iconzanker:
Wow. Very impressive colors. :nod:

Thanks! Though I don't know if Chucky was the first character I wanted to associate her with, I was going for sort of a porcelain doll look. Dolls is dolls, eh?

Thanks! I couldn't remember ever seeing a picture of her with her hair down, so I thought I'd try it that way. Looking back though, she should probably have a lot more of it coming down, but ah well.

Glad you like! I'm finally starting to get to where I can render something without being overbearing with dark shadows. That just wouldn't have worked at all for Rainbow Brite.

Yeah, kinda going for somewhere between despairing and colorful. Does that equal hopeful?
I don't know if I mentioned it, but I love your new icon, it's super cute!
