Description I've had one specific goal in my time as a CG illustrator, and that was to find a way to replicate the beautiful works that are done in markers by manga-ka. The reason being is I'm cheap for one (can not affor Copic markers, and Prisma colors aren't doing it for me), nor do I have time to master the skills to do it traditionally.

So I'm constantly trying to produce something I feel is of good quality, and like so many of the marker type images I see in my art books. Part of my set back is probably because I'm so in love with Watase Yuu's style (especially with hair) and find myself always pushing to achieve that kind of greatness. <_< It certainly isn't easy, and I'm certainly not there yet.

When I colored Saimour's demon it was very relaxing and refreshing to try working with a sketch for once instead of pulling my hair out at inking. So I drew Koala and fiddled with her last night. Koala is the main character of Pyralis. She is also supposed to be the love interest with Talon. Erm, yeah <_< I'm done rambling.

I love the coloring!

The top of her head seems a bit short though...

Nice job, I await your next piece ^_^

Yeah, I see what you mean. I was kind of experimented by making the hair line start at the top of my circle refrence...Not sure what I think about it actually.
