For Sanzogirl (I hope you like it even though I kinda skewered your character xD)

I'm actually really really glad I started this over, cause the 1st attempt was just painful >>; On this one I just gave up trying to perfect every pixel and everything came to be so much easier ^^.
The colours are kinda whacked cause I got this sudden urge to use neon colours and then I couldn't stop.

Marking as finished, but hoping for some extra space to do some nitpick changes >_o;;

Hm... I was thinking, if a light source like the sun were to hit a black umbrella, a shadow would be cast upon the object beneath it. However, if the light source was a strong and direct one like a spotlight, and it struck an opaque source like a red umbrella, would the umbrella then act as a light source? Or would there be like red shadows.. (if there is such a thing o_o;;?) Or .. like, if there were blue shadows and a red light source, would those intersecting points be purple shadows then?

Ahh sorry! Forgot to add the description!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid-Autumn_Festival
This is a depiction of the Mid-Autumn Festival/Moon Festival/Mooncake Festival/Lantern Festival that is practiced by many East Asians. People celebrate it to worship the moon and show reverence to dieties like Chang'e (whom I've drawn). Farmers also celebrate the end of the summer haversting season with this occasion.

I based the picture off of a few lines in the version 4 of the stories of the Mid-Autumn Festival, found on wikipedia:
"Although Houyi wanted to shoot her in order to prevent her from floating further, he could not bear to aim the arrow at her. Chang'e kept on floating until she landed on the moon.While she became lonely on the moon without her husband, she did have company. A jade rabbit, who manufactured elixirs, also lived on the moon."

And I also based it off of the wikipedia images depicting the characters of Chang'e and the Jade Rabbit.

stargazer: A daydreamer. (so you know she isn't an astronemer).
I'll be coming back to this later.... Right now I need to rest meh hand because I can't seem to draw proportional.

p.s. That chibi in the corner is me.
p.s.s. I obviously cannot draw hands.
