Spiffylicious drawing of Sailor Venus! The colours are so yummy I'm tempted to glomp the computer screen ^_^
I also really like the background you've added. It makes everything come together very nicely.
Thank you all for the comments!! *^_^*
Since I've been asked how I coloured this I'll try to give an explanation~
I used Adobe Photoshop 7.0. First I fill everything with solid colors (one layer for each color just to be organized ^^''). Then I draw selections for the shadows with the poligonal lasso tool and fill them with a darker color(in this case, for the hair and ribbons I used two colors for the shadows). By this time, it should look like cel-shading =D
I pick a soft brush and do some darker shadow by hand where I think it would look nice~~ After this, all I do is basically start abusing of the blur tool to soften (almost)everything xD I use dodge tool to make the hair shiny (very handy!)and color the lines (here I picked brown).
For the background I used a gradient with two colors, I did some rectangular selections in a new layer and fill them with a gradient too. After making the windows, I used gaussian blur on that layer.
Finally, I add shiny stuff with a white soft brush and pink in her cheeks =3
Very important, save often! I guess you already know that =w=''
I hope this helps!
Perhaps I'll do a better tutorial in the future, I just need to finish exams T3T *keeps studying*
