Description This is my first collaboration with my dearest friend here, *craZy18gurl . CraZy drew the lineart, which can be found here . I repeat, I did not draw this, it was done by . She simply gave me permission to color it, for which I am very grateful. I do hope you like it CraZy. ^^ Oh, and the rest of you guys too.
Anyhoo, I worked so very hard on this, I've been working hours on and off for a month or two now to finish. I feel that it could be better in many ways, but I'm satisfied with it as is, because my cold won't let me work any longer. Let me know what you think of my coloring attempt. Any and all coloring tips, constructive crits, and ideas are welcome, on the COLORING ONLY. Thank you.
BIG thanks to my sissy CraZy for letting me color this, I love you CraZy!

Haha, I don't mind Terra so much anymore, actually. I think it was just a few slip ups in the creator writing that made me really hate her in the first place. I mean, she joined Slade in the first place in order to control her powers and not kill people, right? So then, why does she go all evil and try to kill her friends anyway? I dunno, I thought she was a great character, just not written as well as she cold have been. Romantically though, yeah, she kinda sucked.

Exactly. And thanks a bunch for the songs. It's kinda nice to listen to the inspiration for once. If only I had them while working on the pic.

Thanks so much! I'm glad to hear that, since I do try very hard. It could be better, but I just wanted it finished, ya know?
Better than yours? You must be joking. That was a joke right? I personally think your coloring is much prettier.

No! That was totally serious!
My colouring looks so childish... don't like it. But as long as others like it, I'm happy!

Yay! Thanks so much sissy! I'm so happy to hear that. I worked very hard, and I'm glad to know it paid off.
Oh yes, if CraZy hadn't made the fabulous lineart, then we'd have no colorful piccie. Thanks again on behalf of CraZy and I.

This is a popular BB/Rae theme among pics and fanfics and I must say you pulled it off beautifully.

The emotions between them is just touching. Great work.

Wowzers, thanks a bunch! I'm glad it looks ok. :]

I loved the emotions in the lineart so much, that I spent half the time trying to get good colors to match. I think it came out nice too. Thanks again!

Wow...you really have done such an amazing job. I can tell you really put a lot of effort into it cuz...again, dang! It's just so...awesome! I really love it Sarah, its really spectacular. Lol, I still can't get over how amazing it looks. Really, you don't know how happy you have made me. My words cannot describe how absolutely great this is. And I'm not sayin this cuz thats a drawin I did, the coloring itself looks so...amazing! Has got to be your greatest yet! Or one of em at least.

*le gasp!* Don't have a heart attack on me girl! *shakes you dramatically*

Speechless? Oh my... >.> <.< I do believe you've made me speechless too. O.o ......

Really really? Dawww! X3 It makes me happy to make big sissy proud!

So many complimenting adjectives. O_O Seriously though, it really looks ok? I can still see a lot of mistakes and room for improvement, but I just don't know enough about Photoshop yet. Anyhoo, yes, your eyes read right, ever since you suggested I color it, I've been plugging away with it. Totally worth it though! X3

You're gonna give me a complex with all those nice words, ya know that? ^\\\^ It was my honor to be able to feebly attempt to color it. I'm certain you could do much better, but this was really great practice, and I had a lot of fun. Thanks so much for everything sissy. My best yet, you say? I think I'm compelled to agree with you there. I'm quite fond of cell-shading now, and I like how this one turned out. And it's all thanks to you.

Thank you soooooooo much!

*is shaken* O.o Phew...almost was a goner there.

Lol, my speechless-ness has made you speechless. Wow, how weird are we? xP

Yep, I'm really reeallly proud Sarah ^__^

Well you deserve all those compliments! Yes it's true! Sure, maybe there could be some place where some tweaking and improvements may be needed, but for your level, for what you know of photoshop, it is simply outstanding!

Wow, 2 months. But yes, it is so totally utterly worth it!

Hehe x3 *pinches Sarahs cheek* And I feel honored to have you color this ^_^

Hey you're very welcome. I'm very happy and proud =] Thanks to me? Aww come on x3 you know you are the hero of your story.

Yourrrr Weeelcommee!
