Description Roughly translated: 'forest of light'. Couldn't think of anything else to call it

I finished this yesterday and tried to upload it buuuut....when our download limit is used up, well....you'd have better luck getting an angry tiger to cooperate than you would with this computer.

Art trade with *Sajiri . I was raiding Photobucket's collection of Beyblade pictures at school a few weeks ago and Bug said they made her want to draw KaixAya stuff. I'd already asked her to draw me a picture so she suggested we make it an art trade: I draw her KaixAya, she draws me RakexBane XDDD

I did the rough sketch for this during my maths exam coz I'd finished and there was still 20 minutes left before the end of the exam. The pose was inspired by a YuGiOh fanart I saw and really liked.

Hn....kinda makes me think of the Forest Haven from Wind Waker. Probably coz of the glowy things.

I tried a slightly different method for their eyes this time and I like how it turned out. I used a tutorial Bug showed me. ...wait..... -_-U Aren't Aya's eyes gold in G-Rev? Stupid me for forgetting.

I don't think I've quite got the hang of using the pen tool to do lineart, some parts look a bit wonky.

And I worship the pre-set textures in PSP, they saved me with the background. I finished Kai and Aya and then thought 'oh, shit, what am I gonna do for the background?' So I just played around with textures and fill-patterns and different brushes and I ended up with this.

View however you like, the full view counter’s been fucked ever since they brought in dAv5.

I like it, your best thing yet imo

p.s. Not to be getting you down but the correct translation is "the forest's light"

This is very pretty, but you can barely see the shading on their clothes and bodies! Also, I love the girl's hair! It's so pretty. ^^ *is thinking of Wolf*

haha, yeah, i kinda noticed that about the shading, i might be able to fix it though

if you like how i've done Aya's hair then you should go check out Sajiri's pics of her, Aya's her character after all
