Description
Woo, it's been a while has it? I think I was lucky to squeeze in time to do this.Mistakes: Bracelet shapes are inconsistent. The arm in the air has a perspective problem. The part of the arm closer to the chest should be in the front, rather than the front half. I may have overdone the wrinkles for the gold ribbon. Her left hand (the one not touching her head) is proportioned weird.
Adressing: Everything. I drew this up in August and just now finished it. After drawing this, =RomanticFae posted a journal linking to places for references and patterns. You can find it here [link]
Anyway, I was browsing around the dA forums in August and wondered what the Project forum was for anyway. So I go in and it turns out you can go there to see if anyone is requesting anything. Though I rarely take free requests anymore, I thought "Eh, why not," and took up the offer to draw this character. The request came from . I tell ya, I lost count of how many layers I had to do to maintain the transparency of some parts like the Vale and the pants.
Coincidentally, I have another piece of artwork down the pipeline dealing with the same theme. Here's a hint: WayForward

I'm happy you like this.
I think the dA servers had a bit of a hiccup around the time I posted this. I remember some people I watched posting journals asking if they are getting any updates at all.

You've done an amazing job on Bookoo's character design for your buddy! I love all the bright colors and those rainbow bracelets have to be the best part of her costume!~ Nice pattern choice for the background too. It all worked to together here.

Thanks. I particularly wanted to make sure the bracelets came out okay, even though a couple of them are rooked.

But anyway nice work, I like the colors and detail.

Awesome! Glad the stock was helpful! I think the hand near her head might look off because her head might be just a tad too large. Love the colors!

Her head gave me problems during the phase, Normally I'd have the head face where the body is facing, but I went that, not be aware of what I'd have to do for the neck . But these reference will help me as I use them more.
Good thing the colors are still good. I thought they might take a hit after I changed editing programs in early summer.
Thanks for the comment. And thanks for letting us use your pose references.
