Description full view to get all the good details! XD

Third entry for =dodger-d 's contest to promote her upcoming comic Anarchy Dreamers! You should seriously go take a look at her comic Koji Takahashi (the prequel to the soon-to-be released Anarchy Dreamers) because awesome art and plot!
I wanted to do another entry because I really felt like I could give my best through a traditional medium, and while researching for character heights, clothing styles and such I grew to love Emily's work even more because of the diversity of her characters and stylistic choices.
Because most of my markers were almost completely dry by the time I got to the background I decided to give it texture with some blending techniques. And because I don't have a blender I went for vodka and Q-tips which sufficed just fine XD

Letraset markers, vodka, white gel pen and Paint Tool SAI.
Characters belong to , art's mine.

I have been admiring this picture of yours ever since you posted it like forever ago. I love LOVE the coloring job, it is so bright but all the colors work well together and it isn't overwhelming. And the vodka did a great job, the blending looks amazing and adds really nice texture to the background. (As do the white dots. Darn it, I really like your white dots in the background. Always have. Always will. I need a white pen at some point.) Another thing I like is the way all the characters are holding themselves, and they all have lovely legs. They look nice and casual and I like how they all look like they've been grouped together, not just copy-pasted into the same picture, if that makes sense. (It doesn't really make sense, sorry, but that is the best way I can think to phrase it.) Their proportions look nice, too.


Pretty much this is lovely and I love it.

I UNDERSTAND EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN AND AS ALWAYS YOUR COMMENTS MAKE ME SO HAPPY.

Like legit Chloe you can't understand how happy your comments make me. Make-my-day happy. I love the way you mention every little detail that you like and you're boosting my self-esteem and I'm so motivated whenever I read your comments that I feel I could fill a whole sketchbook in a day. Thank you thank you thank you <3

Ah!! I really really love this picture, they all look so nice!

I'm really impressed with all the details in their clothes and stuff, because I can tell you researched it all. ;_; As well as that background. @_@ I can't ever do those kinds of BGs.


I looked at this last night but I was too tired to comment, so I left it for this morning. I'm glad I did because I noticed so much more today, like Tadhg has Dev's hand and that's just precious. ;_; 


Thank you for entering! Good luck! : D

thank you, ah I'm so glad you noticed the hand holding XD I didn't wanna make it too obvious and then it occurred to me that it might go unnoticed :> also those backgrounds are not so hard to do! Probably easier with the fine nib of a blender but still easy with vodka and q-tips too hehe XD

Thank you again!

ooo! Lovely background! And the whole set!! Markers and vodka! What an interesting combination! I'll have to keep that in mind. (I've only ever used water, salt or tea/coffee up to the present.) Lovely, lovely outfits and digging that script! Luck dude!

Alcohol dillutes the ink of alcohol-based markers like Copics or the Letraset I'm using XD Yes, to keep in mind, definitely neat to cover up mistakes and such! Thank you! <3
