Description This is my first digital art ever. Really digital. From the line art to the coloring.
Sketching just took a few minutes. But when I did its line art... it took hours and hours! Well, it was all because I just learned how to make line art using Paint Tool SAI. It's quite easy, after I searched some tutorials in DA and practiced =w=
Coloring... yes, it took hours and hours more. Background... it took hours either
But I'm quite happy with the result

This art is for 'Arina week' , #Kami-no-Kaitou 's contest.
The prompt is future.
So -ehem- the story is that Sakura goes to the future. She meets up with Maora, and Maora then dresses her up!
Then, there are some conversation ongoing between 'em:
Maora : "Sakura-chan, your hair is too long already! It's surely ABNORMAL in this modern era."
Sakura: "Oh really? Then I'll cut it."
Maora: "Cut into hair style like mine. It's in trend, you know."
Sakura: "I don't know. Is it true?"
Maora: "Yes, it is."
Sakura: "Is it?"
Maora: "... No, it isn't."
Sakura: "..." (I knew it already!)
... that all!

Sakura is the main character from 'Sakura Hime Kaden' while Maora is a character from 'Shinshi Doumei Cross' (The Gentlemen Alliance Cross).

That's pretty good for your first go at straight digital. Mine was all the way back in... 1995. Things are a lot better now!

Still, I just started using SAI recently, and I have to say I'm really liking it. Keep up the good work!
