der April macht was er will

the title means something like "April does what it wants", a saying that we have in Germany about the weather in April. To me April is usually coooold and rainy, but it's supposed to be spring so...I tried to portray that here. I also tried a more anime-like style (I don't like those big cute eyes too much), the ppl are the mascots of animexx.de (they have no official appearance though), a German anime community who prints a fanart calendar each year and this this was for the competition (some weird chibi bunny-pic won -.-)... I drew all the grass and tree textures (one dots-brush helped a bit), very exhausting, so I declare this finished *sighs*. I also made myself a rain-brush and used one from peachysticks.deviantart.com for the clouds (I couldn't smudge at this dpi-count and the size argh, Photoshop kept crashign anyway). And yep, even the rainbow I did myself, PS rainbows looked silly... I'm baaad at colours *sighs*...used complementary ones on the characters, but still they don't fit... drawn in Photoshop CS from scratch, no refs except for the clouds, rainbow :/ 600dpi of pure PS, memory and mind poison :P
