Woot! I made one of these too! XD Ahem...and I even wrote up some summaries of the monthes too, because that looked very neat and well done. I just have to say before I start though, Awesome Job everyone! I've been looking at the other art summaries....and wow....you can really see how you change and improve. ((even though I can't tell with my own work)) There's some really awesome fanart on this site. **round of applause**

January--"RaXi" This was my very first drawing of her. My concept of her was that she was simple in design, yet hardcore and icy within. She's kinda complicated. XD She doesn't show emotion and has a perfect poker face, but deep down she really has some deep scars. You can't see it here, but it was also my first attempt at her Great Sword "Lunaria". It's design has since been completely altered. ^^;

February--"Under Vincent's Umbrella" This was the first piece featuring a couple for me. It's of RaXi and the man who saved her from fading away, Vincent. He picked her up off the street and out of the rain, and so, in the picture he's shielding her with his umbrella. I thought it was cute because I even had RaXi in his jacket. ;D

March--"RaXi--Close Up" This is part one of a two piece set. The other features RaXi in her Berserker form. I wanted to show the contrast between the two. Here she's seen as she normally is: Serious, straight-faced, and hauntingly beautiful. Since she's ice, she's supposed to be as beautiful as the fresh fallen snow. Or so I imagine. XD I have yet to color this though....sorry.

April--"Verex-eX Vincent Reve" And this is what BECAME of Vincent. He became a Nobody...via death. Surprisingly, he doesn't seem to have changed much though. Basically, this is him in his Organization Zero attire. ((from the RP he's in)) This was also the first drawing of him. ^^

May--"Raphael et Sinclair" An Angel with a Black Wing. The eye-patch he wears isn't because he's blind, or missing an eye....hehe it's a secret though. ^^; His right eye is very 'special'. Raphael is one of the highest angels in heaven, and he has seen many things in his time. I drew this image of him somewhat in the past, also his "concept art". Basically to give everyone an idea of how he looked.

June--NOTHING TECHNICALLY IN THIS MONTH. Yet I couldn't bear to leave it blank, so I filled the space in with Raven in his Night Class Uniform. ^^

July--"Organization Oblivion's Elite" A Group picture I drew of all the Elite from the RP "Organization Oblivion". It was for a contest. It took me awhile to decide all their placing, but this isn't the first large group picture I've done....doesn't mean it didn't take awhile though. >.>' I messed with it a bit in photoshop and attempted to color the image in the back to where he was fading.

August--"The Ice Queen" RaXi sitting on her throne of ice. It's shaped like the Nobody Symbol, showing her undying loyalty to the Organization. Also, in the background, there are Saix and Marluxia. They are her mentors. Marluxia brought her to the Castle originally, and Saix sharing her "berserker" trait was her teacher for a time. They have their backs to her because they are gone and will never return...and yet they are still a major part of her being. She will always remember them...and they linger in her mind. ((Note: the story is set 10 years after the Organization's fall))

September--"Raven--Never Underestimate the Power of a Side-Glare" I had this image of Raven's glare and just couldn't resist. I had to sketch it! And so here it is...I'm so happy with it. However, I still have yet to color it. ^^; Even so, he has a powerful gaze...does he not?

October--"Lilah and Rouen-Chibi Love" This was just something I randomly drew of Rouen with his mate Lilah. I wanted to draw him in something happy...since I had only drawn him in sad or tragic moments. I really liked the posing and the color I used here. It helped to convey the emotion. :D

November--"Eris's Sketch of Ren" This is sweet, shy, little Eris. He's a wonderful artist, but having been chastised so much about the "content", he's become quite hesitant about sharing his work. So, he bows his head and almost hides as he reveals his workings. This was a quick sketch he did of one of his classmates. He finds Ren usually gazing out the window lazily. ^^

December--"Kikuno-Anbu Hopeful" And this is Kiku! I was ecstatic when her pose came out just the way I wanted. I'm just a couple more steps away from practicing "Action Scenes". We'll see. I also used some sort of blending tool with this. I think it made the color come out smoother. Maybe....

And that is my selected art over the year. It was really hard choosing which images to feature...so I just went with all my OC's. ((with exception to the O.O. pic, since that features other OC's and not only mine. ^^))

I wonder....think I improved?? LOL I really can't tell. ^^;;
