Description Yes, I know it's late.

Yes, I know it's silly.

Yes, it probably makes more sense if you know about February 29th - [link]

Miss Hira suggested that I post this, and who am I to resist the opportunity for some slightly belated comical mushiness? I actually drew it on the day in question, partly because I heard about the practice on the news, and partly because it just seemed like an awesome idea and a good excuse to draw a sappy sentimental picture with some amusing daftness thrown in for good measure.

From the artistic side of things, I know that I have a terrible habit of drawing "meaningful" pictures (or pictures where anything is happening, really) from a dead side-on viewpoint, perhaps because it's easy, perhaps because it's clearer, perhaps because I used to do it endlessly when I was a kid... and I know it should probably only be a scrap, but hey - not like I was posting a huge amount in my main gallery anyway!

And yeah, the proportions are a bit off, but I liked it anyway.

P.S. Marry meeeeeeee XD

I wish it was custom for women to propose. Save me the trouble of waiting.

Beautiful drawing. And I don't see anything wrong with the proportions.

December 21 2012?
I think all the 2012 stuff sounds super cool. But at the same time if its really the end of the world, I don't want to die
Great picture, the color you used for the drawing is really catchy.

I'm also traditional and feel the guy should ask the girl...

... though admittedly, with how many times you've asked...

I like it, mushy or not.

One thing though.. the way the girl's arms cover up her chest made me think this was a yaoi marriage proposal at first.

The drawing is beautiful.

But I'm sexist and I think it's the man duty to ask for marriage. More romantic that way.

The dead side-on view actually works for it, somehow... I can't really explain, it just does.
