Description In order begin, I'll just state the actual drawing is not by me, but rather a rather rough sketch by my friend Denny: [link]

Kind of promised to colour it in for him.... hmm... about a year ago, yeah. Even if the thought takes long to get through to the channel, I still keep my promises, see, see? XD

Well, this was one quick colouring. The cleaning up took much longer since my lineart technique is inhumanely unnecassarily long and grueling. Took a total of 3 hours for the whole process (which is ghoulishly slow, yes, I know ).

I've seen that picture on a Japanese desktop background. Nice copy, at leas with your smooth shading.

Hmmm? I've already mentioned that the actual drawing was not made by myself, didn't I?

I'm not sure whether the other author copied a pic, or at least, he never said anything about it. Now that you mention it, it might actually be true since he DID he do that sketch with a mouse in MSN Messenger in less than 10 mins, which is quite the feat. XD

In any case, I'll query him about it as he really has no reason to hide anything about it. If your claim is indeed true I'll try to allocate credit where required. Thanks for giving that minor tip off in the meanwhile. ^_^

Your coloring on it is very very beautiful though, but yes, I did see that picture somewhere else before.

Hehe, thanks a lot for that comment. I really appreciate it; especially coming from an artist like yourself.

And apparently yes, he did use a reference pic, and he's already trying to search for the thing so I can get some kind of clue which artist originally created the pose and all. But since all this happened over a year ago - hehe, anyone should have an idea about the complications. XD

If I knew where too, I'd send you a link, but it was a while ago that I saw it. I don't think I have the background anymore either. :< *checks* Nope, sorry. T^T
