Description
Was going to be my entry to an IFI holiday contest, but I took long finishing the sketch (which is still actually only 90% done =_= ). Now there's only 2 hours left til contest closing and I'm burnt out. Got homework to worry about, too, so I didn't give this enough time. Whelp, unlike most of my other drawings, I'm planning on finishing this during the holiday break. The Neptunia series has replaced everything else as my "game-series-to-obsess-about", so it'll be a disgrace to my love for the series if I don't finish this. Especially considering how many hours went into just sketching out details =_=Plus, my Galaxy Note tablet died on me, so I had to resort to my Bamboo tablet to TRY to do lineart, which cut my work speed in half and dropped the quality of the work. I don't know how you people do it, but I'll NEVER get used to those things for anything other than painting.

It looks like it would've turned out great. And I've used a bamboo tablet before... NEVER AGAIN. I just hand drew my submission this time.

Perhaps I should've done the same. Unfortunately, I don't have any color pencils of the skin color I'd want to use.

can't you buy any? I mean, they're pretty cheap. Just find an arts and craft store.

True, but I'm a bit lazy about buying art supplies. Especially since I would probably spend too much time staring at all the colors to make sure I know which pencils to buy.

Don't really use color pencils often enough to justify buying a lot at the moment

Aww man, that's too bad. It's looking great.
I finished mine a few hours before deadline D:

Thanks, I seriously underestimated the time I would be spending on this. Figuring things out and drawing all this took me around 5-ish hours (I'm rusty as ****) and I stopped drawing 2 hours before the deadline. I estimate that I'd need another 6-10 hours to really "finish" this (again, rusty).

If you're feeling rusty try to practice some more now.
You should never spend too much time without drawing D:

Yeah, totally true. Problem is I'm spending more time with 3D modeling and animation software, so not much time for good old 2D drawings.

Oh I see. Well, both are nice.
But if you manage, try practicing a bit of both. It is helpful.

Yeah I will. Going to try putting some drawing time in when I'm not too busy with all my 3D homework.

Nice composition and expressions! Too bad you couldn't finish in time...

Whelp, you win some and you lose some. Perhaps next time I'll budget my time much better (I'm expecting another contest for when Re;birth2 is close to releasing).

This looks slightly original and fun. I will have to keep up with this.

Hopefully the end result won't disappoint.
