Description AL AND MEI (C) HIROMU ARAKAWA, DUH.

..Ugh. Thanks goodness I got this done...
Mistakes? Oh yes, they are there. But after working on it literally for months on and off, only having time to work on it for a little bit on Saturdays, I am done. Not to mention I should be shot dead for using a sunset backdrop and profile views AGAIN. T__T

Ahem. Anyway. On to cheesiness.

Al and Ed are done traveling the world or whatever, Mei tagged along with Al, their feelings are ridiculously, obviously mutual, but there hasn't been a confession or anything... Yet.

"I can't stop myself,
There's no one else,
I'm falling, I'm falling..."

Haha, you're like my opposite/mirror, I guess? My OTP = AlMei, but I really appreciate EdWin, too! <33 Their relationship is so great! It kinda adds another layer of realism to FMA. The series so spectacular and epic, but the "childhood friends turning into something more," that sweet and quirky romance of EdWin, it really balances things out. Thanks for the watch, too, by the way. And again thanks for the comment/fave.

Laura-Marie-Art In reply to paper-rust [2012-02-12 09:58:12 +0000 UTC]

Oh my god, we are mirrors ^^ <3
Yeah i love AlMei ^^
it's really sweet how in the beginning alot of people thought, 'this brat doesn't actually care about alphonse, she'll probably hate him when she sees his human body'
But then in the end alot of people (even Ed) were suprised about how much mei actually cared about alphonse and how suportive and happy for him she was when he got his body back
<3 meis one of those underated characters ^^ alot of peopl hate her, but i have no idea why, i personally love her <3

ahahah no problem <3 you really deserved it

Mhm! <3 I had faith in the fact she really cared for him, for whatever reason. I don't even remember why I believed. xD But it was great when she really did. She became one of my favorites.

Holy frreaking crap that's gorgeous. o_o

I just love your colouring and how you're able to do background and lighting (share some tips around, yeah?) And the best part is that it's AlMei! AlMei! x3 I love his expression and how sweetly pretty Mei looks.

paper-rust In reply to Princesswiseandsmall [2011-09-27 12:09:44 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!

AlMei, woot! Thank you thank you. I'm glad there's so much you like about it!

Uhhh, tips?? ^_^;; LOL. I don't know. A lot of "lighting" is done in the "post processing" stage so to speak. xD I just play around with layers. I don't know how to explain it, I'd need to do a tutorial or something, but I don't know if that would be arrogant of me. xD

Anyway, again, glad you like!

Yo, the scenery is breath taking. It's so beautiful and so romantic *fangirl swoon*. I'm so glad this is finally done! How long has it been in the making?! I think it was even before I went on a holiday.

Aaanyway, Al and Mei look so cute! I should really get back to reading FMA...

Haha. xD Oh geez, I don't even know. I think the beginning of August, maybe?


Thanks! I think Al is a bit scrawny/disproportionate, though... (He is what took so FREAKING long. That and their HANDS. Oh my, let's not go there.)

You should!

Kuroshitsuji, too, 'cause Ciel and Lizzy are up next!
