Description AHSGFDKAHSDJ PHEW CUTTING IT CLOSE THERE, BUT I FINALLY FINISHED!

so this is my entry for 's summer contest~!!

Oh man, so the theme of the contest was like happy summer days...But I just...so many angsty feels for this series right now... So I hope this is summery enough for the theme It's sorta bitter-sweet ya know?

Gosh I spent so much time on this one, painting takes so much longer. But after I got the hang of the clouds they were really fun to paint~! Though I kept re-shaping them I'm still not completely satisfied with the folds in his shirt and stuff so I might keep tweaking things till the deadline ; u ;

Anyways I'm super excited to be entering my first contest for the group, I hope you enjoy~!
I meant to put this in earlier, but yeah my inspiration and what I based this pic on is here: [link] ; She's an amazing artist~ So this attempt at replicating her style was a fail but yeah...OTL

I'll leave it up to you whose hand that is

^_^ I would continue the compliments but...I don't want to make you cry too much. It's harder to make pretty art when you're crying.

Mamiru In reply to molerskates [2012-09-01 05:30:53 +0000 UTC]

Oh! Yes, sorry for the misunderstanding! that picture was actually my inspiration for this pic, the goal was to attempt to replicate that type of style. I really look up to Rei as an artist, so even though my background isn't even close to as good as hers I learned a lot~! I hope you understand ; u ; /

molerskates In reply to Mamiru [2012-09-01 05:40:14 +0000 UTC]

its okay.
everyone needs inspiraron to draw. although i think you should atleast give credit to coralstone.
and you did a great job on this art too! you're really talented.
