Description So, I'm not very happy with how I color, so I decided to do some fun fanart to practice coloring. Something that I don't have to think too much about that I can only focus on doing the coloring. And, as I got a famicon recently and have been playing Sailor Moon puzzle games non-stop, I had to be something Sailor Moon.

I don't often paint pretty things, since I'm usually a humor person, so I decided to do something pretty (I hope).

I also decided to try actually coloring in Paint Tool Sai, and I really liked it.

I hope the coloring came out nicely, and any thoughts on how it looks would be much appreciated. I really need a lot of practice on my coloring (not only color usage, but how smooth or how rough to make the actual picture).

Enjoy!

You know, if you really want coloring practice you could do all ten princesses. Lots of colors there.

I think it's one of my best as well ^_^;; Clearly I just have to do more!
Ah yes, the re-releases ^_^ I left mine at home...perhaps I can find an older copy here...

yea i would love to get my hands on an original release in Japanese, but i cant find them anywhere. i know i wouldnt be able to read them yet but it would still be cool to have them

TriaElf9 In reply to nozomigirl [2012-05-16 00:36:33 +0000 UTC]

I could possibly manage it here, but it might be tough as well. The occasional book, maybe, but probably not the whole thing.

TheSukiness [2012-05-15 10:42:50 +0000 UTC]

It looked weird at first, but i think that's just because of how you drew the hair. (Did that make sense?) After looking at it a bit more, the piece looks great.

TriaElf9 In reply to TheSukiness [2012-05-15 11:04:42 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I've always been really indecisive on how to color hair: detailed, or softer. It's such a dilemma! If I might ask, what about the hair threw you off when you first looked at it? It's always good to find out how other people see my art!

TheSukiness In reply to TriaElf9 [2012-05-15 11:16:54 +0000 UTC]

I suppose how you had strands outside the lines, and how it just didn't really have any lines around it.

TriaElf9 In reply to TheSukiness [2012-05-15 11:19:18 +0000 UTC]

Ah, the extra strands of hair. Does it really look that funky? perhaps use them in moderation? It was a thing I tried a little while back and I've just gotten in the habit of doing it ^_^

No, it looks nice, just a bit hard to get used to for me.

Yes it's pretty
I think the colouring looks great, personally =3 But what I'm loving the most is actually the way her hair falls over her upraised hand
