Description Mikasa Ackerman fanart. Best gril of Attack on Titan. I now have a decent drawing of her SnK's manga is my life force it's so damn epic
I like Mikasa's character; she's very strong but she remains grounded and true to her heart.

(Manga spoilers ahead)
I drew this picture thinking of the scene where she learns of Ymir's curse. She is hit with the realization that both Armin and Eren have less than 13 years to live. I'm pretty sure that it affected her very much.. so this is my depiction of how she feels while internalizing all of that.Β 
Also, I'm really happy she's finally back in the manga (after a year)
(End of spoilers)

Even though I drew her in her moment of weakness here, I decided to name this piece as it is because in my opinion, allowing yourself to feel and welcome emotions is a sign of strength. I personally think those who are able to freely express their emotions and have the ability to pick themselves up afterwards are strong people because it takes a lot to open yourself to others and become honest with your feelings.
The flowers in the drawing are called Gladiolus. Gladiolus symbolizes honor, strength of character, faithfulness, infatuation and the drive to never give up-- all perfectly describes Mikasa. The color red of the flowers symbolize love and passion-- feelings she deeply holds for Eren.
I always see Mikasa drawn showing her strength physically. That is why I wanted to do a different take that shows another side of her. I am happy to be able to draw Mikasa that shows her strength and honesty of both mind and character.Β

"She is Strength", a very appropriate title given what she's lost and is protecting.

Having her cry really brings the emotions and theme of the picture to the forefront. I think it says "she's strong, but carrying a heavy burden".

Yes you've got it! I'd like to think it's because of all the burden and pain she's been shouldering is the reason why she is strong

I like to think it's the other reason around, she can bear the burdens because she's so strong.

Thank you! I really thought the flowers framing her along with the lighting would capture her emotions well

This is so beautifully done and you’ve captured her perfectly! X3 Just the whole drawing and every detail of it pays off here because it fits the mood, and poor Mikasa I wonder what she’s gonna do when they’re gone :0

Thank you so much!! Yes, yes I'm glad I was able to convey her emotions here U_U Poor Mikasa indeed. I wonder what'll happen
OMG Your avatar is amputee-kun Eren (0o0) So cool!

Hopefully she'll find someone else (maybe Jean?) that can make her happy again XD

Yup, and thank you! X33Β

Absolutely gorgeous work of her; I fully agree with your sentiment of Mikasa!Β 
I really love the mood captured; how soft and beautiful the whole piece is with the lighting and the blurring of the edges. I feel the edges of the flowers really guide the eyes to her as the center of focus; really brilliantly done! The few loose strands of hair are also really lovely; add a sense of realism me thinks.
Just gorgeous work!! \*0*/Β

Thank you so much! c: I'm glad something agrees
I'm really happy you took time to tell me what you like about the picture. I really worked hard to add the mood to it. Adding loose strands is one of my favorites in finishing a work; they really make a difference in making the character more alive.
I really appreciate this; have a great day
