Description Woo!  I'm so proud of the color I did for the water~    So this is the picture I had to submit last week (cutting it pretty close to deadline) for Sophie-Chan's Fanart Contest.  Because she received so many artworks, she's expanded the placing, so there will be a top 10 picture for each character, top 10 group pictures, and the ones she chooses as top 10 and the other 4 voted on through facebook.  I don't care much for the prizes, but I would really love to place at least somewhere in the contest.  I'm sure there is a lot of fierce competition, as I could see from the last one.  So we'll see.

Hope you guys like it~  I chose Moria because she likes sailing, adventure, and discovering new fish species, so right when I read that description and image already popped into my head.  Don't forget to support Sophie-Chan.  She is an inspiration to many other mangaka's including myself, who is having her manga published at this very moment~  Like myself and other mangaka's, we hope to one day be at that turning point in our lives when our stories get picked up too!

Character and clothing belongs to Sophie-Chan.  I do not own the original character, I just drew the picture.
The boat is an original drawing that was taken from many references that I found on google with some creative adjusting to try and fit Sophie-Chan's style.

You can find Sophie-Chan on her Facebook  or her Official Website ~

Whoa, this is breathtakingly gorgeous!!! The composition and sense of space and depth in this picture is incredible! I especially love what you did with the water! The picture is practically coming to life off the page- you have some madly-honed illustration skills.

Aww thank you so much!  I'm glad to hear you love it~  In the competition, I managed to place among the top 40 and I was so happy to hear the author of the manga even loved all the fanart too

Dawww jee thanks~  I appreciate your words of kindness.  I honestly feel at times as if I'm not doing enough art that I don't deserve the recognition.  But thanks anyway~  Sorry for the late reply too

Aw, it's okay- I always think quality is more important than quantity with art, and there is definitely a huge amount of quality with every piece of art you create. ^v^ I'm the same way with activity on here. You're most welcome and keep up the awesome work!

I really really did~    Unfortunately I didn't win among the top 10 and top 4 people, BUT.....I managed to PLACE!!!  I'm still a bit giddy over the fact that I managed to place among the top 40, and that's being among the top 10% of the 600+ entries!  So I'm still happy regardless~

That is impressive indeed. O.O So many entries. I would never be able to choose a top 40 out of 600. How do they do it?!XD

Rozen-Guarde In reply to cece61998 [2014-10-20 18:19:32 +0000 UTC]

Well it was all one person's perspective which was the author Sophie-Chan herself.  I'm sure it would have taken a loooooot of time, but eventually she managed to get it down to top 40, then had a voting poll on facebook and came out with her top 10 and the top 4.

Hehehehe, yeah.  Personally if I saw that many entries for fanart of my characters, I'd be downright flattered.  But yeah that would be a lot to sort through, but worth it to see everyone's artstyles

I love the detail in here love.
Love the effort!!!
One problem I have with this, is the harsh black outlines of the birds. Could have been done in navy blue to fit in with the tones of sea and sky. Just a little thing to remember for your next piece. But well done sweet socks!

Rozen-Guarde In reply to absolutejackass [2014-09-25 22:59:48 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much for the compliment!    Ugh yeah I knew that was gonna come back to bite me~  I had a feeling that the outline of the seagulls looked too dark and I was on a time crunch but even so I agree with you.  They do stick out a bit.  But yes thanks for the advice, I'll be sure to watch that for the next piece I do.
