Description HikaHaru Art Challenge [link]
Concept from ~kanae [link]
Thoughts~kanae gave me a wip so it's fun to see where she was heading for. She's talented enough to make her own piece look lovely~~but nonetheless, the concept was adorable to work with.

---------
I actually had fun coloring this. I took ~Kyomu advice from his recent work [link] and applied it here. First roughing out the color and shadows in large brush strokes. I think it turned out alright...even tho I haven't touched coloring trees in a while~~ The lighting and the shadow on the figure really bothered me as I would ponder how to go about it when I went to bed. XD;;

Thanks ~kanae for letting me use your wip as reference. I hope you finish your original tho XD

In regards to this pairing ever undoubtedly unlikely to happen.....please do not talk about the manga @A@;; I've become extremely sensitive and paranoid about where the series is heading. Hence my recent lj rants.

Tools of Trade: Photoshop CS2 and Painter 8

Okay, I change my mind! I used another pic for my story a long time ago, but this time I'm writing another story. Could I use this picture for the cover; The story cover? I will not look for any other picture for it, and I will keep begging you for the permission to use this until you say yes. I will give you full credit for the picture on my profile. I love LOVE this picture so much! You're so talented!!!!! PLEASE READ THIS!!

I'm looking through all these HikaHaru pictures, trying to find one for a cover for a fanfiction I plan on writing, I was wondering if I could use this one? I might find another one to use, I need a picture where they aren't wearing the school uniforms, and this one is really cute. Could I add this to my list to go through??? Please please please >.< I love it and HikaHaru.

In the manga Hikaru actually dyes his hair dark brown,and since the manga is canon the art is correct ^^

I. Believe. I. Love. You. Now. *cough hackcough*

IT"S SO DARN CUTE! *fangirl scream* O__O How do you manage to make the lineart so clean? *is crap at linearts*

*stares at fingers* Gah...lovely fingers...suddenly I wanna amputate Hikaru's fingers. And sew them onlto my wall...

...nevermind. xD

OwO Your coloring is unique too! It's like a mix of cell shading and soft coloring! I like how the skin blends in with the rest! The shirt, the leave's shading! *loves it all* Wow. Really...wow.

Background is lovely as usual. A nice mix of colors. It appeals a lot. ^^ Give its a scenic kind view. Great job! Good work!

Is it safe to say that's I'm one of your adoring fans? xD
