Description I said I'd color this some time. This is how much I've been able to get done between studying for midterms and doing endless amounts of homework that's been piling up due to my complete neglect for the homework because of said studying... Yeah...

Mostly, all I've done so far is apply the base colors and started a liiittle bit of shading, but Roy's and Lilina's faces are pretty much complete for now. I decided to experiment with a wide array of values for skin, as opposed to my usual 3-values-per-color (base, shadow, highlight).

Please criticize if you see any flaws with the skin (or anything for that matter) so far! It'd be best if I fixed my mistakes now rather than after I finish coloring everything else. Plus getting a better grasp for seeing values on the skin will greatly help me once I move on to shading the clothes.

Also, I'm having a difficult time with figuring out how to shade the front sides of Lilina's hair. Any tips/suggestions? ._.

Roy doesn't disppear/leave at the end of The Sealed Sword; those pictures are probably just the artist's imaginations at work. But there are multiple endings possible depending on which A-level supports you get, and I've only played through the game once, so maybe in one of the endings, Roy does leave on another journey. You'll have to play the game to find out.

Send me a message including your email, AIM username, or MSN address if you want me to help you with this further. I'm not too sure DA's Terms of Service will allow me to include directions on its website.

Aww, they're good together.

I'd say that if you're not going to do cell-shading (which you're not due to the more-than-three-shades-per-color), you should make the black lines thinner.
The eyes are nice. As for the skin (and the hair,) I can't really tell where the light is coming from. It seems to be coming from the left on Roy and Lilina's face while on the right on Lilina's arm.

Oh, nice drawing!

Heh, yeah, making Lilina's hair is kinda hard. And the shades, mostly depend. On which position the light effect comes.

Isn't that supposed to be? :/
