This was originally supposed to be done for sometime around Easter, but I have a tiny bit of Easter egg chocolate left so it still counts, dangit! I got the idea from the Chocolate Rabbit Meltdown video, which features eerily beautiful music and rather artistic melting of chocolate bunnies. It's something I think Bart would take to extremes. Technical whining: I used the wrong program for this. In the video everything's airbrushed and unreal, so being a twit I used the program without anything close to a nice smooth airbrush. So, colouring was in Painter, wobbly bits fixed and outlined in Photoshop. And there are too few shadows and no blue shading and I can't figure out whether Bart and Maggie are too wall-eyed or not wall-eyed enough. Bah! *munches chocolate*

Yeah, I don't think I can really offer much criticism. I like the idea very much, though.

I did notice a lack of blue but, in this case, it seems to work. They look like they're made of marzipan.  Also: need chocolate. Is it me, or do those rabbits look very nervous?

Very nice and amusing. I like the way you did Bart's hair.

yeah, the rabbits' expressions and bart's hair in particular rocks (reminds me of some of the better OFF figures you can buy). Also the reflection of the candle on the can and the way it seems to be casting most of the shadows is pretty funky

Appropriate yellow colour filter... nervous and personality-filled Life in Hell bunnies... based on cool video... oh, I'll just declare my love for all of it and get it over with.
This is the best Easter ever!
I'm afraid I'll always have slight problems with Bart's 3D hair, and not even as cool a picture as this can cancel them out. I do want those bunnies, though.
Silly kids, don't melt them on top of the books!

Love the colouring here. The angle on Maggie's camera is well done to.

The color scheme is quite inventive. Lines on Bart and Maggie are just perfect.
