Slayers Wallpaper: Tenderness in the spring wind

Hello,

This is my first work here, i hope you like it ^_^

Information:

● Series: Slayers
● Time Taken: 3 Hours
● Date Finished: 03/17/2024
● Original Cel Scan: Slayers: Gourry and Sylphiel anime cel
● Tools: Clip Studio Paint (standard brushes)

i wanted to keep the light spring mood of the original eye-catcher from Slayers Next. To avoid visually overloading the picture, i just gave both character figures more polished, soft look.

Made Sylphile's eyes more proportional and similar to Rui Araizumi's work. Changed the blush from black lines to red ones. i added glows, colors, gradients to both figures manually. Also blurred the shadows on the clothes to make them look softer. i expanded the background on both sides, added rays of light and additional sakura petals.

Thanks for viewing, enjoy
