I love your pallet challenges! That looks amazing.
Great job, as always!

Thanks a lot! I definitely need to keep doing palette challenges. They're a great way to stretch the art muscles and spring up some creativity!

I love your art a lot, wew wished I was that good lol
I've been trying to draw on digital, but really have no clue what I'm doing so I've been slacking

Ahh, thank you very much! The best advice I can give you is just keep practicing and don't give up. Improvement never happens quickly. The transition to digital art isn't easy, either. Give yourself ample time to adjust and learn the ropes. And don't get too discouraged! Every artist has difficulty appreciating and liking their own work, but once you learn to take pride in it and find things you like about it, you'll find that the itch to draw/create art hits a lot more often. Positivity counts!

I adore every single one of those couples you've listed. But, augh, Chrono Crusade really tugs at my heartstrings. I disliked how the anime ended--left me feeling pretty devastated, actually Q__Q One of my favorite all-time couples is Kail and Yuri from a manga called Red River. I suggest you check it out (that is, if you don't mind a little smut here and there xP).

Aside from black and red, purple looks really good on Rue <3

Wow, it's rare that anyone even knows about Chrono Crusade! I agree, though. The ending made me cry. It's at least a little easier to take in the manga, if nothing else. And I don't like how they basically screwed up Rosette's character in the anime instead of sticking to the manga counterpart. A liiiittle bit disappointing. I've never heard of Red River, but I'll have to check it out! (Haha, I don't mind smut at all. Pretty fond of it, really. As long as it's not excessive and... well, doesn't kill the plot.)

Thank you! I like coloring Rue in a lot of different colors. Red and black are definitely the most common for her, but I've also liked how she looks in blue and pink, as well. I need to try green sometime. I'm sure she could pull that off, too.

 

[Amissapanda]

I mentioned in my previous post/response that I had also done art of Rue in both pink and blue. This is what I was referring to the by the pink one:

I made up the ballet outfit from scratch in this illustration, but I think the colors actually suit her very nicely~!

 

[Hyoshido]

I really do adore your colors and shading, really nice work there!

 

[Noodles_]

Oh gosh, that's beautiful! I feel the need to watch this anime now.

Thanks a lot! I put a lot into that piece, particularly with giving it a very 'finished' look. Backgrounds are my weakness, but sometimes simple can be the best way to go! Coloring maybe tedious in some aspects, but it's also very, very fun.

Oh gosh, that's beautiful! I feel the need to watch this anime now.

Thank you so much! And I totally recommend Princess Tutu. Despite the odd name, it's a fantastic anime with great characters and story! (That's my biased opinion, though. Haha. I'm sure it's not some people's cup of tea.)

Thank you both for being super sweeties! I wasn't expecting feedback anymore, as I don't do mayor/oc requests and stuff and just post my artwork. You guys are the best. ♥

I still absolutely adore that Rue piece. Especially as a fellow Rue fan, I love seeing her being dressed in other bright colors. While black and red look stunning on her, it's really need to see her being experimented with other colors. She rocks them all, IMO.

Thanks a lot, bb! She could probably pull off any color, if we're being honest here. XD I bet she could even rock neon colors in some way. Regardless, it's fine to play with colors! I'm really itching to try her in green, so I may keep that in mind for the future (because Fakiru Week).

This was a request I did pretty recently on tumblr.

Sharing ice cream. <3

I love doing silly/cute/romantic things with my favorite pairings. Still learning the ropes with tablet lines, though. The jitter is pretty intense on my tablet monitor.

 

[Hyoshido]

Must get money so I can get some art ;3;

Would love to see how you'd draw Mario hah D'8

 

[Kaboombo]

woooooooooooooooooooow that is awesome! i love your style btw!

Haha, truth be told, I suck at the Mario style. I did a picture sometime last year or the year before of a character in that style riding a Yoshi. It was hella awful. lmao

woooooooooooooooooooow that is awesome! i love your style btw!

Thank you so much! : ) And I'm honored that you enjoy my style! I know it's generally pretty run-of-the-mill as far as anime goes, but we stick with what's comfortable for us, after all. Thanks again for the feedback!

 

[Amissapanda]

I realized that I have yet to share any of my sketchwork, so here's a piece from a year ago that I liked the result of:

I was trying to work on couple poses and intimacy, as it was something I felt that I needed more practice with. Sketchwork is probably the most comfortable for me, since as much as I love digital work and doing digital work, nothing beats the feeling of having a solid pencil in your hand to draw on paper with. In my opinion, anyway.

I may post some more of my old sketchwork in the future. I used to do tons and tons of it.

 

[Amissapanda]

Annnd another color palette piece. Pink was very suited to Princess Tutu. Ballet poses can be a challenge, though. Need to work on more of them.

 

[Hyoshido]

I can imagine, the dance in general seems challenging from my perspective...that's probably because I'm a man though.

Still another lovely piece, colors really do match!

Won't believe it till I see it! :c

Haha, gender really has nothing to do with it, really. Men dance and draw dancing too. XD Thanks, though. Color palette stuff is definitely one of my favorite things to do. I'm glad it started circulating around tumblr or I might never really have thought of it.

As for the Mario-style thing... well, you asked for it. I'll dig up that art and post it later.

 

[Amissapanda]

Don't say I didn't warn you. lol

I've never drawn a Yoshi or in the style before. It was... interesting to try, but definitely not a comfortable style for me at all. Still, trying new things helps us improve and expand, even if it's in small ways. And I like experimenting with styles now and then. I've tried Disney, Studio Ghibli, some other anime styles. Anyway, there you go. That was my only living proof of attempt at the Mario style. XD

In all truth, though, nothing beats the comfort of drawing in your own style. It's the most natural.

Aw c'mon, It's not as bad as you made it out to be :c
Still nice eitherway!

I still want to give money for a commission tbh, I'd actually commission you to draw Ness tho
(Upon confirming that he has PK Freeze as a custom special just makes me want to main him and I haven't mained Ness since Smash Bros 64!)

lol Thanks. We are our own worst critics, after all. Still, not something I'm particularly proud of. But it was all in good fun.

I'm not currently taking monetary commissions, unfortunately (and I've got people on another site kind of waiting in line or reserving a spot, so I'm not sure how long it would take before I could do it). That and you probably don't know what my commission prices are, so here's the link to them: Commission prices.

I don't draw Ness "traditionally", so to speak. I'll dig up something a little later to show you my take on him. The funny thing about his PK moves in the Smash Series, though, are that they're actually not his moves in the EarthBound/Mother 2 game: They're Paula's. XD (PK Freeze, PK Fire, and PK Thunder are all her abilities that Ness doesn't have.)

That Yoshi drawing is adorable! I really like the color pallet on that piece.
