THANKS TO :icondreamillusionist: :icondreamillusionist: :icondreamillusionist: :icondreamillusionist: :icondreamillusionist: :icondreamillusionist: :icondreamillusionist: :icondreamillusionist: FOR BUYING ME SAI!!!!!!!! :worship: :worship: :worship::worship: :worship: :worship::worship: :worship: :worship::worship: :worship: :worship:


I made this wallpaper for myself because I was sick of the sound horizon one :XD: I think that by making wallpapers and using them, its sort of encourages me to work HARDER on the cgs, because I know I'll be seeing it a lot when I use it as a wallpaper :XD:

For this one, I made a very huuuuge change of style and I spent a lot of time on it. I put a texture on EVERYTHING! It's really fun to do ^_^ Except it all has to be done in photoshop since SAI doesn't support some layer options I forgot what they are called (e.g. overlay, but overlay works in SAI). This is the same girl from my cg from last year, [link] but older and pastel-ified :XD: I don't know why she's wearing the same dress. Anyways this is the kind of image I originally wanted to make with the first Lycoris, with almost steampunk metal weird stuff everywhere (inspired by Kadish from URU hehee :love:) but that time it didn't work ^^;

Ahh I started this 2 days after I finished exams but got stuck on it for a long time until I found new inspiration on sheezyart, from an artist called emde. I don't think I've ever spread the work of one cg out for such a long time and actually finishing it! (there are a few that I've started years ago but never finished)

This one is not going to Anime North because I'm slow ^^; Also, I have no idea what people are going to think of it, since it's an experiment in style for me. I hope you all still like it T______T I thought it was really fun to do!

Like my previous cgs, this looked fine until I moved it to my left monitor, where it looks really really PINK. But, on the monitor that I colored it in (which is the one that it's wallpapering right now), it looks more orange than pink ^^;

I think I've ranted for too long :3 thanks for reading/looking!

Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, thats why we call it the present. ♥
Thank you ^_^ Usually I do all the hair in one or two layers but this time I did it in 7 (1 for each...chunk of hair) :XD: Some people make really nice hair and I think they put the shading on a different layer or something :XD: I want to try that next time :3

Colors mingle, sounds from the ambiance
Pandemonium of the forgotten
You hold the only key; release yourself
Arcadia resides right before you
I love the background! It reminds me of the inner workings of a clock. ^^ But there is ONE thing that I find a little irritating: the dress. It makes her seem unusually short. xD;

:sing: What is this overflowing emotion that can cross over time and capture me? Where now are those people to whom gentleness suits the corners of their eyes? :sing:
