**********************************************

I´ve heard about this contest few days ago... Oh my God, I put my soul in this piece because I wanna a NDS so bad.....But you know how I feel when I look those so many great drawings for this contest .-."...

BTW kaze-hime drawing cg would be VERY great as well ^^!!!

Well, I really procrastinated a lot of stuff from my To do list but I´m still alive , I guess... (I took advance from my days off because I´ve had the flu).

Anyway, she is so cute and I´ve drawn her in so many ways that I fallen in love with Anzu-chan

****Ok let´s list the references I´ve based on for this drawing:

Nintendo Games - Kirby / Yoshi / Link

Gantz (the dark ball) by Hiroya Oku

Tonari no Totoro - Ou-Totoro, Chuu-Totoro and Chibi-Tororo - by Hayao Miyasaki

Rockman - by Capcom

Doraemon - by Fujiko F. Fujio

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon- Rei´s ofuda scroll (paper talisman)- by Naoko Takeuchi

Sakura Card Captor - Sakura cards - by CLAMP group

xxxHOLIC - Yuuko Ichihara (in the comic paper) - by CLAMP group

Crayon Shin-chan - Shinnosuke Nohara (in the comic paper) - by Yoshito Usui

Pokeball from Pokémon (by Nintendo)

***Let´s list now the references for Anzu´s cosplays:

Naruto Shippuuden outfit and the fan of Uchiha´s clan from Naruto (by Masashi Kishimoto)

Toph´s outfit from Avatar: The Last Airbender by Nickelodeon

Gantz outfit from Gantz by Hiroya Oku

Okami Gijinka´s outfit by Kaze-Hime (anyway, Okami belongs to Capcom)

A lot of sailor fuku outifs from a lot of series: Sailor Moon, Fushigui Yuugi, Suzumiya Haruhi no Yutsu,Tenjou Tenge, Neo Genesis Evangelion...

That peculiar "pointing finger" is based on Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney game by Capcom

Important: For these cosplays I´ve often change them trying use ACGNA symbols from logo and Anzu´s official outfit colors (red/brunet/orange/yellow/white gamma).

**** Let´s talk about the composition.

Theme: I tried inicially to divide sections for each teme from the logo (Anime, Game, Comics). But, the references I´ve used are so intricate ... Well there are some elements from anime/manga/game concurrently and... because of this, I feel the sensation you can feel from this composition isn´t sections but a lot of elements from diferent origins flowing in the same place concurrently! Hope I didn´t make a mess...

Well, I love dinamic drawings, so I hope you can see the spiral or "s" motion of the composition .

About colors: Yellow, reds and a lot of oranges rules this scene. But , the vivid blue of Anzu eyes Shines On. The big dark area of the background accents the lot of elements (I was worried about making a mess with that lot of characters )... But dark tends to make scene heavy, so I´ve put that strong light zone upper-left this image, making the main theme of this drawing shine vividly. Althought there isn´t a unique focus in a spot of light and shadow for the characters... The best and funniest thing I enjoyed doing here was mixing a lot of colors in the ink of the characters. DUDE, I have to do more drawings this way!

*********************************************
Time....: about 4 days (thinking about the composition, researching, drawing and retouching).

Tools of Choice: Ease PaintTool SAI !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (WONDERFULLEST Tool!!!) and.... yeah... some color blending retouches in PhotoshopCS.

*********************************************
Anzu Chigusa is the mascot of ACGNA North America... so, she belongs to them!

I didn´t review the text so, I´m sorry for the eventual (lot of ) english grammar mistakes
