This is undeniably cute, but moody too. I love the bold & strong line work. It has a deceptively easy look to it, but the colouring is so good with the ones & shading... it really brings it to life!
Artist Comment
Hello! Itâ??s wapy-chan hereâ?¦
First of all, I must announce my character: Christina Bellnight! Sheâ??s the sixth Keeper, the Keeper of the Hope. It
may not look like it, but sheâ??s only twelve.
he sketch for this one came to be during my Maths lesson. Fortunately, the teacher didnâ??t notice this time that I
wasnâ??t paying that much of attentionâ?¦ He noticed once and it was going to be the end of the worldâ?¦ Iâ??m
talking too much now.
Then my father gave me this TFT screen with bright colours, nice resolution and great aspect and I had to try it out and
this drawing was calling me from the notebook and once again, why not? I spent all my afternoon and some of my evening
making this and I didnâ??t got bored like I usually doâ?¦ It may be the new screen effectâ?¦ Makes me work
moreâ?¦
Sighâ?¦
I really got into trouble to find the proper lights, shades and coloursâ?¦ I spent a lot of layers and most of them
disappeared quickly. Thatâ??s just the way I work. Happily I could make this one and Iâ??m very pleased with the
result. I hope you like it as much as I do.

In a single glance, this artwork conveys a bit of cuteness, action and mood altogether. With its bold outlines and neat shading work, it "brings [the artwork] to life," as quoted by saikusa. The use of a blur is also effectively used to add more focus on the character shown. Overall, it's a neat piece of artwork. Well done Wapy.

I like how you draw the outlines using your vector skill. And how you put the character as the focal subject since the background is blurry. Very dynamic, and like Saikusa said, it does bring it to life. Plus the lighting looks incredibly well done. Great work, Wapy!

I like the arm on the floor. That's well done! The background makes it look like someone running from the cops with all the lights at the back.

Somehow, from the thumbnail, she reminded of naruto's sakura, but after enlarging, she's quite different ^_^'. Anyway, i love her cross-shaped weapon. The lines are super clear as usual, and i love the 'moving' feeling you created, as well as her expression. The bg fits quite well (nice blurry effect there), though the light effects are a bit too much for my taste. Otherwise, great shading.
So thumbs up and fav :D
PS those clouds are awesome (the weird thing is that they don't look as blurred as the rest of the bg !)
