Description I haven't drawn anything decent for myself in a very long time, so I drew this when I finished commissions. I've wanted to use these colours (light yellowish blue and pastel pink) for so long! <3

Being a n00b at drawing backgrounds, I had no idea what to do with all the white space, but then I remembered that I had a really nice tutorial saved on my laptop on how to draw walls. (It's from Pixiv, you can check it out too: [link] )
Mine turned out nowhere near as good as in the tut, but I also tried to keep it less realistic, to match the character.


It's Aori~! I've been trying to finalize her colour scheme lately. I'm not sure if the difference is showing xD But I'm sure she isn't happy with it (she hates pink, unlike me... which is unfortunate for her ˇ u ˇ).

Nice pose and scenery, but what I really love is the choice of colors.
The varying shades of pink and red makes the piece look coherent while maintaining great contrast.
The piece also looks very well balanced!

Very nice job my friend, congrats on the DD!!!

I really love the colorations and your drawing style!
It looks nearly perfact; the shades, and even the background looks natural and smooth.
One slight critiquepoint I can afford is the proportions of the torso.
It is a bit too long, as well as the hans, which are slightly too small.
But ignoring the flaws, it is a wonderful picture.
I favorited it
and I'm watching you!
