This picture here is dedicated to my hosts in the OHC. I haven't really been keeping up to date with other holidays and making something to celebrate them, so I decided Valentine's Day was as good a day as any to start something, and to show my appreciation for my Hosts: Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya, Takuma Ichijou, Dante and Megaman.

First of all, heart-shaped chocolate. So original, I know. But really, in some way shape or form I do love each of them so it was very appropriate. The flowers are what I thought were more important though. (Oh my goodness were they a biatch to draw. I love them, but I very much dislike drawing them.) Anyway, the main flowers, the blue/violet ones are Larkspur, which are a flower I've come to really love in the past couple of weeks as 'my flower'. Larkspurs generally represent 'Levity' 'Fun' 'Big-heartedness' and 'Ardent Attachment', which suits where I kind of sit with my hosts, or so I think. I'm a 'rowdy, hyperactive, pain-in-the-neck' but whether or not I do have too much energy at times, I am attached to my hosts and I do care about them a lot. The small white flowers are Canterbury Bells, which are meant to signify gratitude. And I am really honestly glad that each of my hosts takes some of their time to interact with me and allowed me to even become their fans.

Otherwise, I'm really proud of this drawing, especially the hands. Well... I don't really like the ear; it just bugs me, and the ends of the hair...
I did use a reference for the pose, so don't credit me for that, but the clothing, flowers and expression were all uniquely me. The shading and drawing is cartoonish, which was what I was going for with the bold outline. I think it looks nice, I hope you guys like it!
