Description Happy Valentines Day? ^_^ I decided I wanted the title to be a little more "deep."



Hand drawn line art ~1.5 hours, colored in Photoshop, ~4 hours Full view please!

This is for the contest at the stock artist below. I wanted to make a fairy for the contest, but when I drew the pose, I could just see the pigtails and thought it had to be Serenity. I did consider making her the princess, but when I thought about drawing the Moon Palace... @_@ So, Crystal Tokyo it is! The gleaming future kingdom of Earth. Ah, I love Sailor Moon.

I updated the image because I deepened some of the tones and I fixed the messy shoe.

Thank you all so much for all the comments, favs, and views on this drawing!

I love it ^^ and I love your animation style as well ^^ It's like you draw the sailor moon characters... but also make them uniquely yours by incorperating your own style. I love it ^^

I just realized that I never told you what an amazing piece this is! I absolutely love her. she does have a very ethereal feel to her and I love the soft glow you managed to give the picture. I think this piece may be the reason I started watching you in the first place.

I didnt really notice that this was digital, thought it was traditonally done, probably because of the softness and the traditional look it gives off.
Its really beautiful, conveys her beauty and presence. I dont know what to say exactly, but its just a job really well done, love it!

Thanks! The sketch is traditional but DA's submission guidelines kind of make you pick and I figured in the end it looked like more of the work was done digitally.

"P.S. If I find a wedding dress even remotely similar to this, I am totally wearing it. >_>"

The original Princess dress was based on a real wedding dress from a catalogue/magazine that Takeuchi-sensei saw. However, it must cost a fortune. Takeuchi-sensei is into designer labels... *cough* So think in the thousands...
