Description
December, her armor, background and personality belong to me. Please read Artists CommentsEdit: Eriance did do the original design for this armor, at my request. The armor is now mine, however, as per the agreement of the project. The line art how ever was still created by Eriance
Finally finished it! This project was one I had been working on for a while, then I lost the file for a time and had to find it again before I could continue working on it again.
Thanks to a new method my roommate taught me, the color process went much faster then it was before.
Character concept and painting done by myself.
Thank you for the lovely drawing and line art.
So, what does everyone think? Please tell me if you think something isn't working, or tips on what could be done better.
Also, good ideas for a background would be appreciated. I want to do something to better show off the transparencies I used.

You're welcome! Β The armor design was by my good buddy Eriance (now Amuscaria here on DA), for which I'm still very thankful. Β He gave her an amazing armor.
The coloring was a lot of fun to do too, but for some reason, it lost some Β of it's brightness and I was never able to fix it. Β I need to do my own drawing of her some time in full armor.

I see, well, he did a great job designing the armor, and you did a great job drawing it yourself.

Thanks, but don't forget to shower some praise on my friend who did the line art for this piece. Β This one was only my colors and base character concept. Β Come to think of it...I've been so busy, I have yet to actually draw her suited up myself. Β I've got several drawings of her with out the armor, but none in it. Β .....Need to fix that at some point.

Do you want her to be a Maverick or a Maverick Hunter?

Huh? December is a Hunter. Why do you ask?

I was thinking up a good background for her that's all to help you out.
Unless you already came up with her background, now. But either way, it's cool.

Oh, haha. I looked it over again and had forgotten I'd said that. No, I don't actually have anything else for it yet.

Don't forget to check out Eriance's works too, if you are not already familiar with him.
He's the one that did the drawing.

Yeah, I really like my December character. Eriance did a good job on her.
The only problem is her face can be hard to draw at times.
I think it would be kind of cool to see other people's takes on her.

Oh, I ment what she would look like if other people drew her. I need to get up some more of my drawings of her.

You finished coloring it! 0.o Wow, that is gorgeous. You blew me away, even though I already saw a WIP version...
It doesn't look desaturated to me.

You mentioned that I blew you away originally with this piece. The sad part about this now is that I could do this so much faster then I did originally, and I think I could actually do a better job. But then again, I did do this years ago. Need to finish my current big color project. Nearly done, I'm just being picky on it.

Nah, that's not sad at all. That means you're getting better! c:

Oh, I know. I meant more in the Lolz kind of sad XD

Okay, it must have just been my goofy computer then. I will have to see if i can't get it to stop doing that.

I think the color it's no problem :3 as only need to make like little metalic and the crystal need little bit transparents 
very well done in CG

Oh, oops! I forgot to turn the pattern layers back on. Easy enough to fix. The 'blades' that come off the backs of her arms are transparent, so are the shoulder plates, the ice crystal and the hair pieces. I didn't want all of the crystals to be transparent.
