Description Vocaloid-Lovers collaboration project submission. I chose to do Maika and Yohioloid. I'll finish him later. For now I'm going to agonize over the fact that my coloring still needs work. Like a lot of it. It looks too soft, too nwebie like. It's one of the reasons why my backgrounds look bad. Dang. I haven't had much time to work on it.

I had my final exam and graduation (Yay I'm finally a graduate and noooo I have to apply for universities now), then there was the Midsummer's day party and after-party, a movie day (I finally saw a 3D movie in a long time, it was Jurassic World) and I got a new computer, so I had to do a lot of data transferring and re-installing my programs, and I watched a lot of anime (Another, Shiki, Berserk and now Mirai Nikki), had to extract our harvested honey, plus in between I got an inspiration and I started polishing off my own characters. So yea, add some lack of motivation and it would explain my inactivity for two or so weeks.

I like her hair colors, very pretty! The little extra trim on her stockings is cool.

Ah, coloring. A journey indeed... I'm no expert, so I don't have any concrete advice to give but you're definitely off to a good start for sure. I really like the style of how the colors are put in (kind of like a painting, really) but improving will involve making the transitions between colors and shading smoother. In any case, I really like the picture.

I'll admit that I am kind of trying to make my coloring look like it's painted. I want to make it look more edgy so to say and less smoother. And yes, I do have those problems with colors from time to time (blue is my worst enemy) I think that it did go a bit wrong in this picture, I concentrated too hard on the wrong thing.

Yeah, that can happen. Even though I didn't get very far, I found the color wheel to be pretty useful for stuff like this. Though I wouldn't know the first thing on how to use it, I know it's used for traditional shading like with what you're doing so it might be useful.

Graduation take a lot out of you and that is why I didn't go to my college graduation. Too much effort when I had work the next day.

Congratulations!

At first I didn't really want to attend it too, but my mom started pestering me about a dress and shoes that I later had no choice. It really wasn't that bad, only took two and a half hours and we were done.

I love how soft your 'strokes' are. You allow your strokes to be seen, and I like that. I also like the soft glow you gave her

haha thanks those soft strokes did come in handy when I was working in the furniture shop and I had to edit a lot of furniture pictures. I would like for my strokes to be seen a bit better, give the picture more edge so to say. That's why I'm still trying to work on my coloring.

Thank you and yes these past weeks have been busy, there were days when I barely had time to do anything on m computer. All that is left for me is the big headache to find a university to attend to.
Jurassic World was epic, especially the last battle, even my dad agreed that it was good. He's so hard to please sometimes.

You're welcome! It's okay, we understand that you're busy. And I hope you can find a good university :') Best of luck to you. 
Agreed! I loved the last battle, it was amazing <3 And I'm glad he liked it, too.
