Shakugan no Shana

1900x2176

Artist Comment

WHA?! 2 credits to post an Indy Art? LOL, I remember the days it was only about .10 credits or something like that. Duh, because I had submitted my first vector. >3

Well, I hadn't done a soft-shade in a long time, so it's high time I'd vector a Shakugan no Shana vector. This is not the one I wanted to vector, but it's close enough to what I was looking for; shades of different gradients and a long-ass time to make. :p

I was skimming through the scans in AP one day when I find this scan. Looked easy, right? Wrong. So wrong wrong wrong.

It was easier than those other soft-shade vectors out there, but gradients were let loose like wildfire trying to blend everything together. To be honest, nothing in this vector was easy. Okay, maybe for the skin. It only had three shades. XD

Tell me what you think, and I've pretty much given up on the circle backdrops. I'm gonna try something new. <3

    Wow entity-san, this looks great! I haven't even tried soft-shading yet >_< You did a great job on it, it must've been a bit of a challange, since it doesn't look easy. And I like this picture of Shana. Great job!

    Nice vector as usual, although in my opinion, the shades look a tad flat compared to the lines. Maybe you need to put more layers of shades.
    Yay for new background! Sometimes, repetative things can make us bored, eh. :\

    Yay, another soft shade vector by entity! I love how you did the hair, it looks like the real thing :-) Excellent job on the lines and colors! Hope to see more soft shade vectors from you :-P

    Realyl love the soft shading though I kind of agree with gaara-no-shukaku. Maybe it just needed some highlights and shadows that's all. :nya:
    Yeah, the background that's been use repetative times can be boring, but I like how your is distinguish since you use spots, but different colours for each vector. =)
    Keep up with the good vector! ;)
