Welcome to the Holidays, Love

I did "Welcome to the Holidays, Love" as my holiday card cover for 2006, just after the smash hit that was the "Pirates of the Caribbean." While the "Lord of the Rings" characters I found quite simple to draw, I had to go through a couple of iterations of Jack before I found a pose and proportions that I liked. His face gave me unexpected trouble for so simple a doodle.
