As I like to state the obvious, this is my second oekaki. It is named "Breezing Colors," because I wanted to experiment with colors, tones, and shadings in this pic: I also tried to make my lines thicker, and I succeeded overall, right? ^_- Like I stated an infinite number of times, I'm truly no good at the last skill mentioned above, and although the shadings in this work probably is more intense than my first one, it's still much in the beginner level. I constantly changed the colors of the hair and the visage, and I admit that the hair's multiple hues is somewhat messed up... if not utterly. *sweatdrops* And there is more shading to the face than you think: the colors are just blended too well. An interesting change, if I do say so myself. And before I used to think that it was a great talent being able to portray a realistic sky, but now that I have done it myself (always wanted to do it ^_^), it's not hard at all. Either that or I'm blinded by my egotism... hehe ^ ^;;. Please, if you can, give me some advice/pointers on how to improve my shading (or anything else actually), and I'll be eternally grateful. And this is a rather good pic, isn't it?

Last Note: I love the lips!! You don't know how long it took me to make it that beautiful!! >_<;;
