When I first saw this, my jaw dropped. Seriously.
I can't believe you tried out the hair tutorial on my OC and that this picture is dedicated to me. Your kindness is umimaginable. I know words may not mean so much, but I'm so grateful. Not only for this picture, but to have met someone so great. Thank you for being my friend. *hug*
You're talking about me being a real up-and-coming artist? Hahaha, I really think that you're the one. The lineart is beautiful as usual. Especially her lips and nose. Simply adorable. And I adore the outfit you gave her. She looks like a sailor and I like the ocean very much. (: Yay for thigh-high socks! Blue is a nice color and it's awesome how you outlined her in blue. I'm curious on how you do that. :3 You did the hair wonderfully, which makes me think that my tutorial wasn't all the bad, hahaha. I like how her antennas almost make a heart shape. <3 Thank you for giving me a chance to make a tutorial by the way. (: Of course your coloring is fantabulous! Honestly, I can't stop looking at her skin, especially her face. It's just colored so realistically. The shading is blotchy and blends together so well. You must be an expert at Photoshop! The shine in her eyes is so..shiny! XD Like there's actual light hitting her eyes.
I don't mind at all! You may use my character whenever you wish! :D
And thank you for all of your hardwork. I'm sorry that your computer had to crash 3598608603583968 times while deleting everything twice, making things harder for you. I hate your computer for that. >_o
Thank you limpet666. You really made my day. (:

*giggles* I'm really glad you like it ^_^ I was a bit worried as I posted it that you might have been offended that I used your character without asking, but I'm really glad you're not ^_^

I was really pleased to get this done, and using your character meant that I didn't feel obligated to color it anime-style so I could use a soft brush and things. ^_^ Even though my comp was being awful I had loads of fun doing it, and your character is great to draw. It was fab too because she's a girl and I really need practice drawing female forms ^^; She's a great charrie too because she looks very original. Any character I try to make tends to be very generic *sigh* and a guy...which doesnt help my quest to draw female bodies *sigh*

(Oh! On a lighter note I think my comp may have stopped being so crappy for the time being so I might be able to submit some more colored works ^__^)

And the blue around her was easy to do , I just merged all the layers then selcted the entire form, expanded it by about 40px (Cos the image was pretty big before I resized it ^^;_ and then filled on a background layer blue the selected area. Then I I just blured the blue until itlooked like that. ^^; sorry I didn't make a proper background though.

I was going to dress her in the domino school uniform XD then I saw what the girls unform was like and was all 'ah...no...' ^^;

I'm so so so so pleased you like it ^^ I was real worried that you might not.

^_^ and you are an up-and-coming artist. There's already improvement in your work from the first thing you posted and the last thing. ^_^ Keep at it.

*jumps on* =3 I may use her again in the near future, but for now I'm going to concentrate on coloring my preexsting works whilst my comp is still working *cheers*

Oo sorry for the long reply ^^;

Hehe, yay! :D Oh haha, don't worry, I've been worried about drawing someone else's character(s) without asking as well. But this picture was a really nice surprise! It's like a present, hehe.

Aww..that's nice to know. I understand, with the computer crashing and you willing to go through with it, I'm happy you were able to finish this. I'm also happy that you didn't feel obligated to color the picture anime-style. You shouldn't feel obligated to color a picture a certain way if you don't want to. (: YAY FOR FUN And thank you very much. I know it's not the best character, but I think she's alright. Haha, I'm thinking of making a guy OC, but I'm not sure for what anime or something. I don't think you need much practice on female forms. They look fine to me. You've got the curves done and the breasts aren't deformed.. All seems well. ^__^ Aw..thank you! It took me years to think up her looks. XD Though I'm not enthusiastic about her so much anymore. :/ Even though you say that any character you try to make tends to be generic, I'd like to see your characters! Since you drew a picture of the only OC I have (Yu-Gi-Oh's the only anime where I was crazy enough to create an OC for it), I'd like to draw on of yours. (: And maybe you can try making a female character while I'll make a male! Then they can go together or be best friends or something! I dunno, hahaha.

(YAYAYAYAYAY I like your computer now! I'm happy it's not so crappy anymore! ^0^ Colored works! Colored works! *cheers*)

Oohh..that sounds like fun! Maybe I'll try that sometime.. (: When I'm not being a lazy bum, haha. And no no, it's all good! I love the blue thing around her! There isn't a need for a proper background, even though you draw background beautifully. I can't draw good backgrounds for crap. ._.

Oh yes, I was kinda wondering how come you chose a different uniform than the Domino school uniform. XD It's alright, the Domino school uniform for girls is kinda complicated. Like there's a lot of things to draw. So it's all good, I like the uniform you gave her. Simple yet beautiful.

Hehehe! I'm pleased that you're pleased! And aww..you didn't have to worry. I love all your artwork. Even if you were to draw me impaled with crows pecking at my eyes, I'd love it. XD

Thank you! You are right, I have come a long way since the first picture I posted on here. I'll keep on practicing. And you keep on drawing as well! I'm sure you'll be famous for your art someday!

*glomps* Hehe, yay! Reading that makes me smile. (: And that's good, I'm sure you have a lot of preexisting artwork to color and it would be good to take advantage of your computer, puaha.

Oh no it's fine. I should start replying to things earlier in the day, hahaa. I apologize for the long reply as well. XD
