Artist Comment

Murr. It's a scene from the fanfiction Half A Soul by Furu Kei in FanFiction.net.
She requested me to draw it from a Negima! Forum, and I was a fan of the story, so I did.

Sketch took 20 minutes
Lineart took 2 hours total.
Scanned.
Colouring about 10 hours or so.

Konoe Konoka and Sakurazaki Setsuna of Negima (c) Ken Akamatsu
Art by me.

Not impressed by the bg.
I tried doing another way of colouring because I got lots of comments that my previous pic, Up the Night Sky's colouring isn't good at all because it's all paintery and not smooth. Well, I'm not used to other colouring techniques--- ah well. I tried.

Support Doujinshi, yo.

    I have no problem with your coloring style ^_^. I think it's simply a stylistic choice, over a more crisp vectored look for instance. It's a good strong piece, and I only have one suggestion. I think that since the characters are in the water, their clothes should be slightly wet where the water is touching. This would be done by darkening their clothes. Easiest way would be to make the shapes in black, and doing an overlay or multiply with lowered opacity. But you probably already knew that :P. Just wanted to clarify what I was talking about.
