Description 1. Here is the lineart that I used: [link] by

2. I didn't steal this, it was for a contest that I am entering. the contest was to color it in one of two themes. Festival OR Wedding. This is the festival theme as you can see.

3. I suck at background so I am sorry for that and I nkow that the way I colored the kimono makes it look doll like and plasticy, but you know what, I don't care. I spent a long time on this. Shut it.

4. It has over 30 layers because I did soft shading. It has one layer for each thing. 1 for the clothing on the girl, 1 for the girl hair, 1 for the skin of the girl, etc. And then each layer had 3 layers of shadow and 3 layers of highlight.

5. Tutorial I used for soft shading is: [link] by

6. Boy Reference here: [link]

7. Girl Reference here: [link] by

8. Just put 8 here to make it even.

I still like how you did the shading. I use Gimp and a mouse to color the linearts I find on DA. And I download Gimp brushes to use for backrounds and patterns on clothing, walls, bed covers etc. Here are a few linearts that I did:
