Description my exams are over, so I'm on a fanart/uploading spree

This is Lacus Clyne from GSEED. She's one of my fave female characters. I love her character design and her personality, as well as her Jap voice. She's a lot stronger and more determined than I first thought (I thought she was a spoiled princess at first...), and I've come to like her a lot.

Anyway, this is my first pic of her, inspired by her song "Mizu no Akashi" (very beautiful song, both in the lyrics and tune), but I used the English version of the lyrics, (ie the version sung in the dub) instead of the original because I just love those words that I've put there.

At first I wanted to design a dress for her, with her hair down, but since she sung this song wearing this dress, I decided to put her in her blue dress. I really like the design of the dress as well as her hair piece, I wish she'd wear it again, but sadly, it disappeared in Destiny...

sketched and inked on paper, coloured in PSP8

wow, look, hands, I actually drew hands, (I took ref pics of my hands to get it right...); and a sort of decent background!

Hands clasped, eyes closed, singing.....Its a beautiful pic. I'm glad you choose this dress, there's something about it, maybe the drapping sleeves, that makes it look.....elegant mythic.

thank you I really like that dress too, or maybe it's her hair clips and the pigtails XD

Yeah, the pigtails are definitely part of it.

Wow, we have the same thoughts. I thought Lacus was a spoiled princess before, but at Episode 36 where she sang Mizu no Akashi, that's when I started adhering to Lacus-samas principles.

Thanks for this. It is very serene and calm. I also love those words you put. Great art.

Hoping to cosplay Lacus Clyne in this outfit.
Lacus no tame ni!

yeah, she surprised me a lot, I guess she's meant to see harmless at first XD

Thanks I stole the words from the English translation of the lyrics XD

Cool! I don't see many cosplays of her in this outfit. I liked this outfit, too bad she never wore it again... ><

Yup, I only saw her wear the outfit once, but I should say it is one of the nicest. The hues of the dress seems to fit the vibes the song gives. Lacus wearing it gives the whole package of peace and serenity.
