Valentine Apple Balm by luckylace222

Valentine Apple Balm

Description

I just had to submit this one. -Even though I was totally fighting myself over whether I should put it in my Scrap Animation(which will soon be approved by the staff) because it is not that big. I kept wavering over this opinion until I decided to just submit it before my brain blows up from the mental fit.

*wipes sweat off forehead animatedly* 030 WHEW

This was an apology picture to my friend Audrey for forgetting to buy her a "Crush" or orange drink during my high school senior year. You pay a whole lovely dollar to send some of your friends/partners Crushes on Valentines, but forgetful me did not send one to my best buddy Audrey(she and I had less classes together that year, so I was forgetful). D; Thus, I drew her a picture to apologize. My pictures are worth MORE than an overly surgery and carbonatedly overpriced drink!

"Sorry for not buying you a Crush on Valentines Day, but you know I already <3 U."

That is a really adorable picture.
This is better than any tooth-decaying drink anyday.

Her design is very lovely, and the feeling comes across very well. The colouring, shading, and highlights are fantasticly done, as always. My favorite is her freckles. The add so much to her!

I love the coloring :D

Wonderful! I love her beautiful long hair and the way you did her face. The eyes are perfect :)

If I were Audrey, I would about have a fit of joy. I think getting an art gift from you rather than a Crush would be the most flattering thing EVER.

Your art amazes me, even still. I should probably stop telling you that, though, 'cause I'm sure you've gotten it by now XP

I ADORE her expression, hair, and eyes. Fantastic coloring job. I love the colors you used. I also really like that you gave her freckles on her cheeks and shoulder. That's a really nice effect. Sometimes people forget that real people have moles, freckles, etc. And I adore the addition of the arm band with the kitty face. That's just adorable :D

Utterly fantastic. I adore it :D

we do the crush can thing at my school too. o.0
i never get one, and my friends never send one either
because we're angsty sons of doges.
actually we just never do, i don't know why though?

AHHA no, I used red and black pernament marker with crayola colored pencils! I have a big stack of pretty Crayola, and I was all, "Why not!" They say the simplest/cheaper mediums can create even more amazing effects if you just know how to master them! -And I have been slaving/bleeding over colored pencils for a LONG time, AHHA.

Have you worked with Copic before? I am curious. I have used them, but they seem messy, but they definitely give a soft, nice texture.

Thanks a lot!
