Description Spare me from naming titles.. I suck at it lol. Anyway, it has been quite a long time since the last time I had been productive (a.k.a draw anything). Lol. College is killing my life. >.>

My brain was complaining to me about how I abuse it from hours of killing the cells. XD! I was tired+bored in the middle of completing my homeworks so I decided to draw a quick pencil art. So, here it is.

She's not really an Elf... but you can say she's similiar to it. I was just drawing whatever came into my mind at that time, by the way. The main focus here is her hair...

After I finish it, I think it's similiar to someone's style.. Oh well. Whatever. *shrugs* As long as I am satisfied with her hair.

Media: Mechanical pencil (how I missed the feeling of completing a pencil art!)

Thanks for the compliment and faves. ^__^ Oh dear, your compliment really made me blush... Hahaha.

Pretty! Like the tattoo and the hair! I totally cannot do this kinda detailed hair... even if I look at the picture and draw it. I kinda call it the Saiyuki-style hair, where like almost every strand is drawn.

emerald-rei In reply to kazura-uyurin [2006-11-29 14:03:19 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the comment nya! ^__^

Lol, oh well, don't say like that eh? I mean, practice makes perfect after all. So eventually you can do it! ^__^

Lol, sometimes I call it 'saiyuki hair style' but mostly I refer it as 'minekura-sensei's style'. You can say she's the one who influences me to develop such a style.

P/s: Oh well, still haven't reply your mail because I forget+busy with tests+assignments+works+family=chaos. *sighs* But just wanna tell I hope you are well! XD

kazura-uyurin In reply to emerald-rei [2006-11-30 09:34:55 +0000 UTC]

No problem!

Ooh I see. Yup, she has a really pretty style. ^^ And it's all okay. Cause I'm pretty busy with stuff myself. It's kinda making me think, "Holiday? Whtat Holiday?"

But all in all I'm well! ^^

Arigatou for such compliment. *blushes* =^__^= Glad you find her nice.

I'm in TARC (though I must admit it was not my choice.. but it's isn't that bad...) Hehehe, yeah it's nice to know I can still draw something... although not as often as I used to. *sighs* But better than nothing! XD

Aww, busy with life eh? But surely you'll find some time to draw something! Don't give up yet. Lol. ^__^

emerald-rei In reply to JUNEX [2006-11-29 13:59:27 +0000 UTC]

^^ Yeah, the infamous TARC.

Nope, if I were to take design/animation/comic course, I'd rather go to The One Academy na? My family doesn't approve me to pursue my dreams as an artist.. so... I am taking Accounting instead (my family chose it). I know it's a dull life for me.. but oh well.. I won't give up yet though.

JUNEX In reply to emerald-rei [2006-11-29 15:06:05 +0000 UTC]

nah...TARC isnt infamous...my sis used to study there too^^
Yup!! Dont give up about drawing! As long as u still love it, u still practice, someday u can become better and persue ur dream!! For ur information, Kaoru 刘怡廷 also student of accounting oh~ but she is now a famous mangaka in malaysia^^
So, gambatte kudasai~!!!!

Nyiiaw~ I love the design of the pic! Be it the layout/ shading/ everything~

I use to have an OC with just one lock of braided hair on the same side too nyaa. Is that a swan or '?' marking on her cheek? Her ears are like a side of a butterfly!! Symbol of beauty indeed!!
