Description
Summer storm, rage on.
So as to change even fate.
I'm not afraid of losing.
I don't need anything except you.

The original picture is by 藤治 [link] from pixiv though unfortunately I can't find the picture in pixiv anymore. So I uploaded it in photobucket. [link]

had this picture on skype so I thought it amusing to re-draw it in my own style. Normally I don't like to post redrawn pictures but I really like this one so you'll have to deal with it ;'D

I post this picture also to make an important point to people learning to draw. There is nothing wrong with using references or drawing art after other great artists. The way people freak out about art stealing these days is crazy. On the one hand, it is truly despicable to copy another person's art and not give them credit. On the other hand, it turns people off from using ANY references. Both choices I would not recommend. Just remember, even great artists like Raphael and Michelangelo started drawing by copying the works of their teachers. Practice, practice, practice, and practice.
