Description So today I colored this chibi thing with Copic Markers after a very long break and thought to myself, "whee, this is so much fun, wonder why I haven't colored with Copics for so long ".

...Then I scanned it and remembered the cruel reality. BECAUSE I JUST CAN'T GET THE SCAN LOOK AS GOOD AS THE ORIGINAL. It's a major pain when I only showcase my art on the net and might be making this into a keychain/sticker/something too, so a good scan would be nice. :I Of course there's plenty of ways to retouch the picture with Photoshop after scanning, but I'm about never as pleased with the result as I am with the original.

***

To the facts! Chibi Hitsugaya Toushirou from Bleach. Outfit from the second Bleach movie The DiamondDust Rebellion, if anyone is wondering.

I think it looks good But then again I haven't seen the original, so I can't compare

And Hitsugaya is one of my favourites in Bleach really, for some reason ^^

It's good to see some new art from you too

(and on a random note, I'm so sorry I'm late replying to your messages! I've been so much away from online lately, I'm so far behind on everything )

Guess it's really been a while as I can't even remember any message of mine you'd still have to reply, so no worries there XDD

And the fact that I hadn't submitted any new art for such a long time (just two for the whole year before this, WTF D8) probably made me submit this in the first place, it's not that I hadn't drawn and actually finished stuff, but it's mostly random chibi stuff to make keychains or stickers in the future from and those have seemed a bit too cheap to submit here. >_<;
Hopefully I'll still get some real art to submit soon, seeing my DA so neglected makes me feel guilty. :'( (If nothing else, I promised my friend I'd cosplay Tsukasa (the school girl) again at this one small event where she's going as the character's sister, so I should finally get some photos of it and maybe throw those here, I did quite like the costume after all. )

Lol, it really has been a while! XD And I'm sorry! There's at least one comment I really should answer, as far as I remember... gah, why do I always end up answering like, months later? ;_;

You really should post more art! I love seeing your art, and you know it
(And yes, you really should post pictures of you cosplaying Tsukasa! That's the one you showed me pictures of, right? You looked really cute! ^_^)

I don't know what are those copics, but you can make pretty good picture whit those.

Yah! I think that Hitsugaya is boring as a character, but at least he looks cool...

...and now I have mental image you yelling to your scanner ;D

Copic markers are the best markers to use for coloring, if you've been to anime cons you may have seen Tempera selling them in their own booth because they advertise them as "manga markers" or something like that. >_>

And thanks, Hitsugaya does lack in interestingness so I'm surprised I managed to finish a picture of him. Guess the chance of going to Artist's Alley's encouraged me to draw popular characters in hopes of attention-whoring...

Awww, it's Hitsugaya, and he's lookin' real cute! Yeah, that's the drawback of coloring things traditionally and scanning it onto a computer. Stupid scanners. You'd have much better luck using a camera.

I have used a camera for that before, but as this might become a sticker or keychain or other printed thing I need to get the details as clear as possible. :/ Nevertheless now that I re-discovered the fun of coloring with Copics I'll most likely continue for at least a while, computer-coloring can get really boring when coloring lots of similar chibis like this.
