"Haiiro-san, I you! Thanks for getting my lucky 4444!"
Hehe. NOW, as for my rant on this particular picture:
Well, um, this took LONGER then I expected. But then again, it was my very FIRST time "Digitally INKING", so I guess that's what really took my time. Eh, but nonetheless, I'm glad that I finally learned how to use the pen tool in Photoshop.
As for the coloring, I was highly discouraged at first. I wanted to use soft watercolors, but that type of shading is hard to achieve in Photoshop. (OC is much better with this, but it kept on freezing up on the PC.) So, I kept putting this off. Finally, I sucked it up and went with simple solids. Can't say that I LIKE it, but it's tolerable.
The background, god, the background was just....WACKY. Originally I was planning to get a background, alter it, and put it behind the CG but... it was too damn...ugh. So I added the brown border and added stars. Hehe, and it turned out...I dunno, wild? So yeah, what can I say? I love the text.
Anyway, yeah, basically a picture of my THREE all time favorite characters in the game. My beloved party. So yeah, we have:
Fayt = Mr. "Yuki_chan-Turned-Me-Into-A-Damn-Uke" + Mr. "Hey-Hey-Don't-You-Kids-Fight-Okay?"
Roger = Mr. "Damn-Right-I'm-Cute-But-Evil-You-Flippin'-Skirt-Wearing-Faggot" + Mr."I-Love-My-Lolipop-While-Looking-Very-Innocent"

Yuki-chan, this is so adorable!! You've improved so much ;__; They're all so cute.. Albel looks like he's about ready to rape Roger... although I wouldn't prevent it ;D
More Yuki arts. I demand it. *shakefist*

That is terrible how talented you are with Photoshop, you will hear alot from the jealousy bug. I envy your skills on CGing not to mention how fantastic the picture looks. This is truely amazing and the little boy with the lollipop is so damn cute *steals his candy*
Aww!!! That's so cute!! I love SO3 and Roger looks adorable with his little racoon ears. XDD. Fayt's blushing is really nice and Albel's expression is just funny. I really like your coloring. great job!!
OMG. Yuki-chan... I LOVE YOU This is so FLIPPIN' AWESOME! Uwaa~~ Roger looks so adorable... Man, I love his innocent look but it makes me wonder what evil plans he's conjuring up against Albel >:3 And Albel's pissed off (possibly paranoid?? XD) expression. Priceless XDDD! Fayt looks so glompable X3 And he's wearing the 4P outfit! I laughed when I unlocked that outfit. It's almost as random as those maid outfits ;
Yuki-chan... you rock with your mad skillz! Fayt's outfit is so detailed~ and I love the way you shaded their hair... I mean, it's so shiny and awesome :3 And I just can't get over how adorable Roger looks XD Man, I can't believe Deg's Withering to Death inspired this XDDD I can imagine you listening to The Final or Machiavellism or something while drawing an extremely cute-looking Fayt XD
Ne... when I get back to from vacation (and back to my tablet and a comp that can load java applets XD) do you wanna collab or art trade? :3 AND THANK YOU FOR DRAWING ME SUCH AN AWESOME PIC~~!! This has made my week~~!! X3

This newsletter was "born" back in March 2007, from a conversation between ~Lareth and =FrozenStarRo, who with the help of their friends *Iardacil and =Sylwiaa , wanted to make something to promote known and unknown photomanipulators alike here on DeviantArt. As of September 2009 =ImaginaryRosse joined the project and will be helping us out with the weekly choices. While things have changed over time, the essence of the newsletter is still the same. As of recent, the talented =Behana has joined us in bringing you this weekly newsletter and we are excited to have her on board. This is a special feature, with a selection of 50 manips from the past year that we loved.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
