Description Lineart: Kouga Yun

For lack of a better title...

This was a tad bit annoying to color, I must say. Hai-iro is the Japanese word for gray, something this picture has a lot of. Ritsuka and Soubi are gray in the original scan, so coloring under the lineart gave everything a gray tone.

That made it somewhat harder to shade, but I figured that since it was gray anyway, I might as well make it rainy. Note: The rain is behind Soubi and Ritsuka.

The feathers were fun to make shiny.

Well, I didn't draw it. It is from the actual Loveless manga, I only colored it. Thanks!

Again, the colors are perfect ! Soubi's hair color seems hard to get, but it seems like you know what your doing. Nice shading, also.

SasuMonkey In reply to Isikaru [2007-08-08 08:19:53 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much!

Actually... On my other Soubi Ritsuka fanart, since I so miraculously managed to pick the exact right hair color for Soubi, I stole the same color to use here. I doubt I could have gotten it right twice.

Thanks! I wouldn't say this is my best yet; I liked my NaruHina a whole lot better.

But yes, could you tell me how to separate the background? I've just been using the Magic Wand tool to get it...

The rain is courtesy of ~poison-stock112 , but she's taken down her entire stock of brushes due to various reasons.

Luckily I got them before that and I follow the rules with them. And thanks! The feathers was just a little idea I had.
