Description This is (i think) my first time cel-shading.
I really like how it all came together
I always find it hard to merge my painting style with Charles's lineart. So that's why I decided cel-shading would be best.

Hope you guys like it!!!

p.s. and yes, I went with different colors for Ivy

Very nice. I like cell shaded stuff. Keep it simple, that's what I always say. For the next one, try coloring the lines with a clipping layer. A darker shade than the fill, naturally.

example:

Black lines are too distracting. Colored lines force people to focus on the awesome cell shaded color!
