Description
Happy birthday Murrue-san!Since her birthday is in October, and where I live, it's autumn at this time, and there are lots of pretty leaves around. So I drew Murrue in an autumn setting. ^__^ I like drawing leaves. (yay an actual semi-background!)
I thought about putting Mwu in there to celebrate her birthday with her, but ended up deciding to just make a portrait of her to celebrate.
Tried a new technique this time, where I didn't bother use dark lineart and worked straight from the sketch.
Hurray for reference pictures! (I took a photo of myself in the pose and used it as reference).

But those aren't as good as normal hugs. Oh well. I tried, at least.

Ah, it's so pretty! D:
Happy birthday to my favorite Archangel captain! 
This looks really good though, I love the use of colours and the pose. And I feel like a jerk saying this, but I'm glad you did put Mwu in there. It looks absolutely fantastic with just her in it. So pretty, so simple
Hooraaaay! <3
I like the lineart, especially, it looks good... if it were solid and black and such it would actually take away from this.
Aaaaah, I love this picture so much XD As soon as I get home I think I'll save this to my "Gundam SEED" pictures file on my computer, harrharrharr.
GO SIS GO!

lol, yeah, I'm kinda glad that I didn't put Mwu in there, and I had no idea where to put him either.
I love brown-orange-gold-red fall colours, it's all so pretty and warm. and I like drawing leaves ^^
Thanks sis!! ^___^

Happy Birthday in CE. I love the colours and the orangeness. ^^ Pose looks good. Was the wall there when you took a reference picture of yourself?

Orange looks good on her I think ^^
no the wall wasn't there. I was sorta leaning on the table in the reference picture. But it's just a random, plain wall, not hard...

Yes, and so does red, I think. Only the Morgenroete uniform she wears in the series is orange though. Hey, I just noticed, you're good at clothing folds, and three-tone shading on the jacket. =o
I just think that, since it's a really close-angle picture, the two straight lines that are the top of the wall should be wider apart to the right of the picture in order for perspective to be consistent.

Murrue is very pretty here. Love her pose and overall setting of autumn. The hands does look big, but it's just a close shot. Best Wishes!

thanks

Very nice. The soft colours and shading you used looks very nice. She has a really pretty face in this picture too.

Lol, Murrue has man hands!
I like the fallen leaves, though.
Here the leaves are still green, but it's finally gotten colder. It was 80F last week and now it's 50F. It's so nice. ^^
I think this new non-dark lineart looks better.

"man hands"
O__o ... I used my hand has referece, so does that mean I have man hands? XD
Thanks ^__^

Now that is a very well done work!
Although that hand...it's huge o.o
Autum is quite a wonderful time of year, lots of colours.
Wonder how old Murrue is...lol

thanks ^^
lol, er, the hand is big because it's closer? XD
yup, love autumn colours ^^
how old is Murrue? Um, I dunno, 20something? XD (but then again, since CE is in the future, in AD 2007, she wouldn't even have been born yet XD)
