Description A much belated birthday present for ~KonekoTsukino . I hope she likes it!

I like to give out art as birthday presents for people who follow my art, and Koneko's comments always brighten my day! Sometimes, though, I forget to check up on birthdays, though, so if people can remind me that'd be super!

Koneko, I gave your two characters a bit of a make over, I hope you don't mind! I drew Serenity in first, and the other girls' dresses looked plain in my style, so... they got an upgrade!

From left to right: Princess Harmony, Princess Serendipity, and of course, Princess Serenity.

Harmony and Serendipity belong to ~KonekoTsukino , Princess Serenity belongs to... well, you ought to know by now.

You can see my messy, messy sketch here: [link]

Gorgeous! I adore the soft colors, and the manga style is superb. The background is awesome and I love the dresses. I love the way the three seem to so serene in here. It's, ah I siad that, new adjective...it's...ahhh...COSMIC!

marie-berry In reply to FairyAmethyst [2010-07-20 21:21:04 +0000 UTC]

LOL Aw, thanks! I really appreciate it. I was really trying to go for a soft, manga style here, like something you'd see in Takeuchi's artbooks. C:

This looks absolutely beautiful. I'm in love with the soft focus that you used on the figures and the filtered background. It makes everything look dreamy and magical.

OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG! I LOOOOVE IT! Thank you sooo much!! This is so pretty! I just cannot believe how much I love it! It was totally well worth the wait. And I love what you did to Harmony's dress. The yellow suits her well. And Serendipity looks so regal and pretty. THANK YOOOOU!

marie-berry In reply to KonekoTsukino [2010-07-20 03:49:08 +0000 UTC]

Aw, I'm glad you like it! I was especially worried about their dresses. I really tried to stick to the elements found in their original gowns, and then as I was coloring I realized with Serenity being pink and Serendipity being blue, they were one short of the primary colors! So Harmony got yellow.

You're welcome! :> Really, it was lovely to work on.

KonekoTsukino In reply to marie-berry [2010-07-20 04:15:57 +0000 UTC]

Their dresses are soo lovely! And I never once considered to have Harmony in yellow...I didn't even realize that her sisters were in primary colors. Haha. And they ARE princesses after all, they must have more then one color of dress
I'm just so honored you would draw such a beautiful piece for me. And I'm glad you enjoyed working on it. You've made my girls look so gorgeous.

This is very true! They probably have a very extensive wardrobe, come to think of it. @@

You're welcome hon! Oh, while I'm thinking of it, let me know if you'd like a larger, backgroundless version to do whatever with, and I'll email it to you. C:
