EDIT 2/07: Now avaliable as a print (using a better scan)!!

Please see my journal for details! [link]

Bwah I love this pic a lot and i have no idea what to title it! So if it pops up a couple more times in your watch box I apologize, I'm still trying to find a good title.

Anyhoo, this is Alexiel and Kira from Angel Sanctuary.

I'm so obsessed with AS right now, lol... and I love Alexiel and Kira, seperately and as a couple. And this picture is really isnpired by this one line ( really this whole scene )that Alexiel says in Volume 11, but I won't say it because it's midlly spoiler-ish... well not really I guess. But anyway everytime I read it, I just die a little inside. XD I can't even describe the feeling.

But yeah... I actually really like how this pic came out overall.

Tho poor Kira is just so overshadowed by Alexiel and all of her hair and such. XD; I'm sorry Kira~~

The scan doesn't really show it.. but with the coloring I wanted to have them in mostly muted, non-standout colors, so in a way ( or at least to me ) it would make them etheral looking or even ghost like.

One of the things I really love about Alexiel ( which I tried to emulate for this pic, but don't think I was that successful ), and/or about the way Yuki Kaori draws her.. is that her facial expressions can be so complex... like she'll be smiling but you can see there's something else behind it... like it makes you wonder what they're really thinking/feeling. Yeah I could just be reading into it too much.. but I love characters with those mysterious facial expressions. I can't explain it.

But i hope I can learn to draw expressions like that better.

Sorry to ramble.. I just love Angel Sanctuary so much.

I love the art style of Angel Sanctuary. It is just so beautiful!! I have to say that you did a better job with these two, than I ever would. Then again I do not draw much anymore.

*TonomuraBix Aug 17, 2006 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I like how you drew the lady's hair. (*0*)

*TonomuraBix Aug 16, 2006 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Hehe thanks!!

I like how her hair came out too, it's fun to draw.

~M-Allcock Aug 16, 2006

WOW. I love this - you have got the expressions done so well... how do you do that?! Making an emotion BEHIND a 2D artwork... as if the characters really do exist. I also love how carefully it looks like you've drawn it.

*TonomuraBix Aug 16, 2006 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Ahh thank you!! I'm happy you like the expressions!

:hug :

And funny enough, this sketch actually didn't take too long at all... gave me very little trouble (for once).

And thank you for the
