Forever in Love (Contest Prize for Moon_Princess)

Hey guys, I'm back with another picture.

This one's the EternalShipping pic Moon_Princess (Cat-chan) asked for as one of her contest prizes.

I'm so glad I finally got it done. The drawing wasn't too hard though the eyes were driving me crazy (I couldn't get the YuGiOh style to work with me so I ended up doing the Mermaid Melody style. I like it on Cat but not really on Yami). I hope they look okay.

Um, the outlining was kind of a pain, but I think it turned out okay. The coloring was one of the hard parts and I was having HUGE problems with Photoshop at the time. That's why the background is kinda lame too. I have decided that because of this, I'm not using layers EVER again (it was by accident, but that's what happened and I'm NOT happy about it).

I used the same effect on Yami's shirt that I did on the last pic I did on Kai's shirt (hope that all made sense). I really like it ^^

This:

is the dress that Cat is wearing. It was one of the only dresses I've ever seen her wear that I thought I could duplicate. True, I designed one myself, but I like that one. She's wearing a similar choker only without the gold piece.

I think Cat is cuter than Yami but I'm fairly proud of how he came out since I'm not too good at him and he's hard to draw. I also think that I like the way I color Yami's bangs that if I woulda tried it normally.

I hope Cat-chan likes the way I shaded/lightened Cat's hair. I think it's interesting but cute.

ETERNALSHIPPING IS CERTAINLY FOREVER!!! I LOVE CATXYAMI!!! IT'S ONE OF MY TOP FAVORITE PAIRINGS EVER!!!!!!!!

That poem off to the side is something I came up with off the top of my head. I like it.

Sorry if you can't read the words, by the way. I like that color though.

Okay, might as well say it now. Um, I ACCIDENTALLY/PURPOSEFULLY left out both the puzzle and the cartouche. I left out the puzzle on purpose because it's a pain in the neck to draw. I left out the cartouche on accident but I had already started the outline and didn't want to try to add it in. So, we're just gonna say that, to prevent them from getting lost, they were left with Yugi, or something like that.

Um, I don't have a scenario or anything unless you guys think it's a date or something.

Because the reference was a screenshot, it was a little hard to get the image I wanted, but I think I did pretty good and I think it turned out nicely. I like it.

HOPE YOU LIKE IT CAT-CHAN!!!!
