This is just the start of it, but this is going to be the cover of the Doujinshi that I am planning to make for sale on the CoN. Her arms are really long, and I need to fix that. :P

Only drawback is that I don't know how to do screentones. If anybody has any help whatsoever as of how to do screentones on the computer, I would REALLY appreciate.
Thankies!

Comments and crits are more than welcome!

The pose with the pendant really reminds me of the Lenna/Reina you drew for CoN's FF5 section. This one is executed more cleanly and attractively, though, if you ask me, and it's a further expression of your growth as an artist.

I still think that screentone is a result of the printing, not of the art, but whatever. smile.gif

I think from now on I'll amend my "I hate fanart" to "I hate fanart except for Hikaroo's." This is really pretty.

The first thing I saw when I came to the CoN this morning was a PM from you with this in it. Needless to say, it was a good morning. Nice work, Honey. I can only imagine how fantastic it is going to look once you learn how to do screentones.

Actually, when the Japanese do screen tones, they have sheets that have the screentones on them that they apply to the paper. Unfortunately, I am poor and can't pay $10 per sheet of screen tone paper.
:P

So it's not the printing. ^.^

I'm glad you guys like it. :D

It took probably a half an hour to an hour and a half tops.
I was talking to SSJ_Cloud on the phone when I doodled that, so I'm not sure.

Yeesh that's great art... @.@

I don't know about anyone else, but her arms look fine to me. They seem to match up, proportion-wise... :-/

You draw ridiculously way too well. thumbup.gif Not a lot pictures that I've seen display her pendant so prominently. It seems to show a deeper sense of Terra struggling with the concept of her identity and/or with love. At least for me, that is.

I like it. smile.gif
