Description This is a reworking of deviation:
[link]

The final piece is intended for a local-themed calendar. The picture has been adapted to represent shopping in Winter, be it Christmas shopping or January Sales. (i.e. I put scarfs and hats on people in the background!).

It's a bit different, but sort of clean, I think I like it. It looks less cheap somehow.

Special thanks to the models (monsters), who appear to be invisible to everyone else.

Method and tools:
Black ink pen and tracing paper over composite photo-picture.
Tracing paper! I tell you, I mean I haven't used tracing paper in YEARS!
Scanned and colour filled in PSP8.

Oh! I see what you mean about the fur now!
I do prefer the original (sorry about that) but tracing paper's pretty awesome

I think I should just improve the way I do fur.

All East Midlands city and town centres share naffness and have the occasional monstrous family (if you look carefully)

Great work as usual BB
I think the monsters fit better with background in this pic than they did in the original...

Yes, I think stylistically it works a little better than the other one, although it's a bit too graphic designny is some ways. Thanks.
