Description I present to you...! Shit. Shitty title, shitty picture that took forever...

PLEASE FULL VIEW. YOU CAN'T SEE THE PRETTY PRETTY DETAILS WITHOUT FULLVIEWING.

For 's contest. It's Michiru. HAHA I MADE HER THIS BADASS SHONEN SUPER CHICK- I'm done.

Well...this was a pain in the ass. Royal one at that. I easily spent over 25 hours trying to get this one to work. 6 or so of that was wasted from not being cautious and saving like I should. ;; One good thing that did come from it was the fact that I got to redo the hair. It was reaaaaaaaaally bad before, and now it's like...okayish. :\ But duuude, duuuude, duuuuuuuuuude! Check her duuuuuuuuuuds! They look REAAAAAAAL. 8D That's like, one of the prouder parts of this pic asdf

Um...hurray for half-assed backgrounds? >.> I know, me and my rainbow colors... /filter

Anyways, I don't have much else to say on this, other than I'm sick of this pic and I really, really hope it wins. Now to work on other stuff. At last.

I'm surprised I made the deadline. If there's three things I learned from this, it's 1) Save often, because when you don't you're bound to get fucked up the ass, 2) don't procrastinate so damn much, 3) work on a much smaller size next time.

Michiru belongith to .
Art to moi.

Edit: Fixed up the background to give it more pop, and added a backlight.

Did I really not comment on this? Holy crap.

I love it, to put it simply. And I wish it got further in the contest, but...what can you do? I know you worked really hard on it and it shows through in this. It's beautiful. :3 Excellent job, one of your best.

Nope, you never did.

I wish it did, too. I still wonder how many votes it got. And I like to think that a lot of work shows through on this.

And one of my best? Really? You think so?

I think so, when it comes to the texture of the dress and the snow and the hair... I dunno, all the colors are so cool, making the scene almost melancholy or intense in some weird way, and it just makes it gorgeous. Then again I have no idea what I'm talking about. x3

I totally had this idea for my picture - but then I ended up rushing it to get it done and didn't do this..

I will probably be doing something like this later though. AAhhh curses! I thought I was being so creative!!!!!!!

I was in a rush, myself. Honestly, it's nothing like I wanted it to be. Oh well. Better luck next time, as they say? ;D

Anyways, thanks for your comment. :3
