If you don't like one of these pairings, please don't flame me, it's only my personal tastes. I respect your opinions, please respect mine. That being said...

Warning - You're in for a loooonnnnng description.

So, that's what's been taking most of my time the last couple of weeks, along with school work. That, and the fact that I procrastinate a lot... It's a bit late for Valentine's day; I didn't think it would take so much time.
I'm proud of the result, considering I haven't done much work before with Photoshop and my tablet (under 10 drawings).
And what have we learned about using roses as background? That it's a real pain to color them. Ugh... If I ever get another crazy idea like that, please somebody slap me back to reality.

Anyway, here's the list of the couples portrayed in the drawing, in case somebody's wondering. They come from mangas and novels, and one is from a video game. Some characters might be dead in their series, but I don't care. I'll be starting from the top left corner.

First row
Keitaro and Naru, from Love Hina - Love Hina was the first love-related manga I read, so I had to include that couple somewhere.
Rubens and Yasu, from Half-Breed - If some are wondering "WTH is Half-Breed?", well it's one of my stories, so those are my OCs. And no, Rubens isn't a mix of Sasuke and Inuyasha (OMG, Emoyasha...), he just ended up looking like that when I did sketches of him. Adding them here might prompt me to submit more art of them and other related characters.

Second row
Ichigo and Rukia, from Bleach - Classic pairing. Sorry for Orihime fans, but those two just fit together too perfectly (well, according to me). And yes, that's a drawing of Chappy the Bunny that Rukia is holding.
Zelda and Link, from The Legend of Zelda series - Who DOESN'T know them? I used their Twilight Princess designs, even though they don't have a very close relationship in this game compared to the other ones.
Naruto and Sakura, from Naruto - I now officially take a side in that NaruSaku vs NaruHina/SasuSaku war. I just like that pairing, they're cute.

Third row
Ed and Winry, from Fullmetal Alchemist - Oh, come on! Those two are made for each other.
Urahara and Yoruichi, from Bleach - Two of my favorite Bleach characters, of course I had to put them together.
Sasori and Deidara, from Naruto - Woohoo! Another crack pairing from the manga (there are so many of them...). I don't know, I just wanted to add them. And Deidara is the seme!!! He's probably got the most masculine personality in all of Akatsuki, maybe after Hidan, so no crybaby Deidara for me! And, yes, I had to do something with his hands.
Hermione and Ron, from Harry Potter - No need to explain.
Jiraiya and Tsunade, from Naruto - Like Ed and Winry, made for each other.

Fourth row
Mustang and Hawkeye, from Fullmetal Alchemist - Both of them staying friends may be good for them, but not for the fans! I want this pairing to happen so much...
Drizzt and Catti-Brie, from R. A. Salvatore's novels - Awesome books! If you're a fantasy fan, but haven't read those, shame on you!!! They are an actual couple (well, in the later works), and I support them 100%! I like how Catti-Brie's hair came out in this drawing.
Ginny and Harry, from Harry Potter - Some may not like this pairing (a friend of mine hates Ginny, don't know why), but [minor spoiler] after having read book 7, you can't really say anything against it.

Fifth row
Adult Lambo and Adult I-pin, from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! - That would add a nice touch to the manga.
Tsuna and Gokudera, from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! - Actually, I'm not that much into that pairing; I just wanted an excuse for drawing Gokudera, one of my favorite characters, and to have a try at Tsuna's hair.
Danica and Cadderly, from R. A. Salvatore's novels - No need to explain (to those who know them, that is).
Kenshin and Kaoru, from Rurouni Kenshin - Some may find Kaoru bugging, but I just like those two together.
Matt and Mello, from Death Note - A funny couple, to say the least.

Long list. There are more pairings from these works and other works that I like, I just had to limit myself at some point. I hope somebody likes it. I do.

Sketched and inked on paper, colored with Photoshop Elements 5.0 and Wacom Tablet.

Random fun facts
- There are 18 couples in that picture.
- It's all done on one photoshop layer (lineart, colour, background... everything).
