(I was away for a while but I would have commented on everything)
I have to say I've greatly enjoyed seeing the lineart and then your coloured image. it's really nice. the lines have the elegance from the differing line weight. When you colour it, it's so light and makes the imagination soar.

This looks so pretty~. I love the saturation of blues and purples.

Which one do you plan on doing for March? Since it has two birthstones; bloodstone and aquamarine. I'm curious and excited to see what you're going to do with it. :3 If you get this done in time, I will so buy a calender of it.

zeiva In reply to IchigoSakura [2009-02-17 02:49:05 +0000 UTC]

It will be Aquamarine. :3

IchigoSakura In reply to zeiva [2009-02-17 17:36:59 +0000 UTC]

Ooh, I can't wait. :3 (Most of my March-born family chose the Aquamarine as their birthstone, lol. I wanted to be a black sheep. XDD)

zeiva In reply to IchigoSakura [2009-02-18 03:20:38 +0000 UTC]

Well, I chose the common one to avoid getting massive comments saying "Why March is not Aquamarine, etc?" Regardless what kind of description I wrote, there bound to be people fail reading it and writing questions to me as if I got all my sources wrong. I don't mind explaining to a couple people, but it gets a little too much explaining to dozens of people.
