Oh that is just so sweet of you Well that is a bit of an exaggeration, but thank you
Oh my gosh yes they did! I even did a few shortcuts to get it done faster, and I was still astonished by how long they took. I don't have much experience with backgrounds and since I'm a bit of a perfectionist they took a couple days to complete. I just love how they turned out though and so did Crystal so my hard work was totally worth it
Thank you again though, that's such a sweet comment to write

Um . . .
HOLY FLIP FLOPS. OH MY GOODNESS.
SO MANY FEELINGS!

Of course, I didn't know who you were doing. So it made it even more of a surprise. And oh my goodness, what a surprise it is!
Arria looks beautiful! I'm loving the colour combinations of her hair, dress and background - all those sunflowers! And talking of the outfit - I love it! The cute red ribbon around her waist, the little slip-on shoes, the tights and the dress itself I really want that outfit now xD
I also love how her hair is all flowy and smooth and pretty and AHHH! I'm just soooo happy right now! But when you do hair like that, it really shows how good you are at hair I think
And of course, that background! Life for me has been a bit dreary recently, so it's nice to see some bright yellow sunshine brightening it up - and it's also Winter so I love the more summery feel. There's so much detail in that background - it's really, really beautiful. I'm seriously so impressed! I have not figured out how to do flowers like that not to mention I'm probably get irritated and annoyed because it was taking too long

Thank you so much Natsu! Arria looks gorgeous! I've wanted to give her a re-design for a while now, so I guess this is her more 'casual' outfit. I really want to draw her in it! Once again, thank you! I love this so much you would not believe I had pre-test butterflies, but I feel a bit more steady now, thanks to this!

I looove it when I get this kind of reaction Crystal!!!
I am just sooo ecstatic that you love this picture so much Yesss I just adored how the dress came out! And I had sooo much fun drawing the hair! It came out just as I imagined it to so that made me soo happy

Aww Crystal Yeah I can imagine life being a little dreary there, I really despise overcast (my opinion )


Haha I did cheat a little on the sunflowers, I did a quick outline of a couple sunflowers from several different sunflower pictures They still took several days to work on, but it wasn't totally all me

Yes I'de love to see her drawn in your style
Ohh! I'm so glad to be able to help in that division then Love yah Crystal!

Likewise! Cloudy and overcast really aren't my thing - that's why I loved CA so much

Oh you But please, those sunflowers really are amazing!

Totally helped as well - since I felt cheeful I did well on my test! All thanks to you maybe <3
