Description "Red butterflies are ill omens. Get too close and they will summon deadly fiends. Blue butterflies lead to good fortune!." Final Fantasy X

Lulu from Final Fantasy X. The background is meant to be the Forest of Macalania from the game.

Just a quick fun painting to get back into the habit of painting, and to celebrate finishing the game.

I used *NikxStock 's lovely stock as a pose reference
[link]

Corel Painter X and Wacom tablet.

Edit: 17th Jan 2010. Finally revised this. I repainted the background and butterflies and fixed up a few minor issues. The background is still rather sketchy, but I'm less inclined to wince when looking at it .
The original painting is here, for comparison: [link]

Edit: 9th March 2010 Thank you so much to *Miyukitty and ^rydi1689 for the DD!

It wouldn't be my first choice for adventuring in - but I suppose if you are an kickass black-mage you can carry it off

Leyna-art In reply to CyannFanArt [2012-06-05 11:28:38 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Yes, her costume is lovely (though I'm convinced she uses a little helpful magic to keep it on during all that fighting and walking )

Thank you! I was really happy with the way the colours turned out in this (more or less by accident, which a smidge of instinct). Now if only I can learn to do it more consistently
