--FINAL QUERKS--
Okay okay okay, I KNOW I've been bragging a lot about how playing DOAX has helped me improve my female anatomy studies, but you HAVE to listen to me on this; Akasha and Aaby are REALLY REALLY SKINNY o.o;;. Like Kairi from Kingdom Hearts kinda skinny (which was more or less how these designs came about, just from observation. Note the skinny legs and giant shoes).

The pose...argh, it's so......typical >.< . I don't do 'contrasting' pics much, but I ran through about 5 poses before this one, each one failing its predecessor worse by the numbers.

--THINGS I'M RATHER PROUD OF--
I read over *messa's coloring tutorial like a STARVED MADMAN to get the coloring for this just right. My usual coloring style is too distastefully sharp, and I was always fond of messa's light, soft colors. SO, as a step forward in my Photoshop practices, I colored this utilizing techniques I learned from ~silverlimit and *messa's tutorial. I'm pretty much very satisfied with how the colors turned out...well, except maybe the background .

I also like how the designs for the hearts turned out. Hell if I were badass enough, I'd have a tatoo of both...or not.

--A PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS--
*messa has the best character designs...I'm particularly fond of Aaby (who knows, maybe it's my love for cute-angel characters kicking in o.o;; ). She designs the best outfits and shoes (although I actually designed Akasha's shoes myself, for I was without reference).

I love Aaby's giant cuffs ! *plays with giant cuffs*
