Artist's Comments

OMG! This is my first gouache painting! :faint: ~ I intended to paint with watercolours but I accidentally dragged my ink bottle over the lines wilst i was inking! *dies* so I thought I'd put my newly acquired gouache paints to the test because they're supposed to be opaque and therefore will cover up the ink smudges (which it did LOL)

This started off SO badly I wanted to chuck it away but I persisted and in the end i don't think this is really that bad...I mean it has a more anime feel than my other work because of the flat colours and I quite like this style :D

Anyway, this is Cagalli and Athrun from Gundam Seed/GS Destiny. I love this couple and I know there are a lot of people there who don't. I just felt so much sympathy for Cagalli because I feel she had one of the hardest times during the second series. Enough of my ranting :heart:

Enjoy!

See? Again it's the girl who is coming after him and not the other way around! :giggle: I wonder if he's even aware of her following him. :D

Heheheh, I may be crazy, but I totally enjoy studying Athrun's every move! :blush:

You're going to do more Seed fanart? :w00t: Great! Then I'll be :+devwatch:ing you! :nod:

Hi! Jin is back and super-active! Man, sorry I haven't been commenting on these - I just haven't had the time to go on DA these past couple months! I really like this style too, and I definitely think you should do more gouache stuff! Lovely composition (I love their hands in the front) and great job drawing the girl from the side - the shoulders are so tricky to do!

Heya! Aww I understand if you can't comment but thanks so much for taking time to do so :hug:~ i know it's that time of the year when everyone's going back to education and running out of free time :(

Thank you! I hope I can improve my cel-style shading by using gouache more ^_^

You have no idea how much erasing I did on the sketch because Athrun's hair is so similar to Cagalli's but it's also different @_@ I'm happy with the hair though and happy that gouache covers up mistakes *evillaughter* Thank you!

Go watch Destiny!! I'm at episode 8 of Gundam 00 I think but uni work is flooding in now *dies*

Athurn's hair is HARD. I could never ever do it right!...Actually, I had a hard time drawing anyone from Gseed/Destiny because they all had hard hair ><;;;

Keep watching T____T hahahaha
