...I reach places I've never seen.

This is a dedication for Kitten & Sinever

I made this wall after an antique Japanese poem about cherry blossoms.
I let Kit-chan pick an anime for this wall.
You can find the scan I used here. This is the third time I color a manga image, so please be gentle =__=
I used countless references for the sakura trees so I can paint them almost as good as Sin-chan would paint... Of course, I failed ^_^'
I'm extremely bothered about that upper wall with ivy on it. It looks too dark in contrast with the rest of the wall, that's the main reason why I smacked a falling sakura flower on it XD
I also decided so remove those people in the back since they were so small and when vectored would look sketchy.
I know the wall looks lonely in a way and of course I'm aware that I mixed up her colors. I don't watch Special A, tried to download it but the speed was the lowest, so I don't know this girl's eye/hair color. I made her a blue eyed, strawberry blond... I also changed her yellow tie, it blends better.

I hope you like it, I put quite a lot effort in it.
Enjoy!

    It's Hikari! and wow what a change from her black hair
    and blue eyes. Looks like you made a new character for them ^^;

    I love the background concept, pretty trees in back
    and nice petals around her. I'm gonna critic just a bit about
    some areas...theres jagged areas, around the tiles
    and outlines of the grey structure.

    Theres also some jagged areas around Hikari's faces
    and stuff, her hand also.

    The vines are nice, not really sure what to say about them
    since there just there, it's nice though.

    I love the sky and trees overall, the petals and colors
    stand out the most to me. Thank you so much saku <3

    wow I must admit it's really nice how you were able to color her, it's really well, but the background is a little dull, maybe it's dued to the shades, it either needs some more or less, iono ^^" anyways still you have my compliments ;)
