Description I made this especially for a rewrite of a song I wrote for my two best friends, Dan and Kiki (it was for a video so they could do karaoke with the song ;3 all 'cause I wanted to make a reference to one of Kiki's videos on YouTube). While it isn't exactly talking about my friendship with them, it talks about their relationship as a couple. (Fan girl x3)

I tried out something new for me on this line art project. Cell-shading/soft cell-shading, the type of shading technique they use in animes. I wanted to try this out because I wanted to shade my colored line art projects more quickly but at the same time make it look good and not so terrible. And then FullMetal Alchemist came in, so now I've got a MAJOR time saving technique. :3


Line art drawn by foxlee: [link]

Its Link and Sheik recolored to look like their textures in brawl.

Though Kiki might kill me for doin' this, I'm gonna post the lyrics to the song here. It's a rewrite of "Hanging by a Moment" by Lifehouse. It's my own mixed version, which isn't exactly closer to the song (as in the lyrics change more often than the song does, if you get what I'm saying. Look up the original song and compare the two. Maybe then you'll get what I'm saying).

I DID make a version that is more based on the song, (titled it "Flying in the Blue Skies") but I liked this version ("Blue Skies") better 'cause I thought it was more fitting plus the fact that it added to it's originality. I have to say though, I changed the lyrics to this song SO MANY FREAKING TIMES. If you had to make songs for ALL the possible combination's of the song's lyrics, you'd probably come up with about... mmm... 50 different versions. >_>

Anyway, here's the song. I hope you like it. :3



~Blue Skies~

Kiki: One step at a time
Revealing the truth.
Whether approved or not,
I’ll be free with you.

It’s ‘cause I fell so in love with you,
I don’t care if the whole world disapproves.
I’m standing here until you make me move.
Soon, I’ll fly in Blue Skies free, with you.

Dan: Before, I was different.
Love for me? Just a dream.
Meeting you, it all changed.
Taking you with me now!

All ‘cause I fell so in love with you,
I don’t care if the whole world disapproves.
I’m standing here until you make me move.
I’m flying in the Blue Skies free, with you.
Both: We’re living for the things we love & know.
We’ll make it through all the highs & lows.
Dan: I don’t know where the howling winds may lead,
Both: Just know we’re in the Blue Skies, wild & free.

Kiki: There’s nothing else to lose,
Dan: There’s nothing else to find,
Both: There’s nothing else in the world
That can change my mind!
There is nothing else~ (x3)

Dan: Well, it’s about time.
Reveal it to them.
Kiki: Whether you approve or not,
I’m running free with him.

Both: It’s ‘cause I fell so in love with you,
Dan: I don’t care if the whole world disapproves.
Kiki: I’m standing here until you make me move.
Both: We’re flying in the Blue Skies, free and true.
We’re living for the things we love & know!
We’ll make it through all the highs & lows!
Although we don’t know where the winds may lead,
We’re flying in the Blue Skies, wild & free!
Kiki: Just flying in the Blue Skies~
Dan: (Feels so free!)
Kiki: Flying in the Blue Skies~
Dan: (Wild & free!)
Kiki: Flying in the Blue Skies~
Dan: (Free & true!)
Both: Flying in the Blue Skies free, with you.

Hummm... I'm not exactly thrilled that you did this without altering the line art Isn't it kind of obvious that it's Link and Sheik? I guess you did give credit, at least >3>; But I if you made Sheik into a girl, I shall be very cross.

Well, my friend Kiki's a girl and uses Sheik as her brawlsona (brawl persona). Her texture hack looks similar to how I colored it in the lineart. I dunno if that counts as making Sheik a girl, because on one hand the Sheik in this is a girl since its Kiki's brawlsona, but on the other hand, Sheik's a guy, but just being used for the brawlsona of a girl.
Btw, the Link looks similar to Dan's texture hack in brawl. If you want to see their textures, look at this video: [link]
One thing that's different is that Kiki's hair isn't black with silver stripes. I fixed it when she asked me to remake her texture with black hair and silver stripes.

So, in short, Link and Sheik are colored to look like Dan and Kiki's textures in brawl, therefore Link and Sheik are being depicted as them.

So... the personas themselves are recolours, huh? ^_^; That's rather unusual, buit I guess it's not a problem. You might want to make a point of the nature of original piece, Just to clear that up.

Myth Inu: Fangirl till the end xD.

I do likes the way the shading came out for this one. Very nice looking. I kinda wish there was a line art where you could make my armor though. I guess I shouldn't expect much though considering how detailed my brawlsona texture is. Either way it looks good .

The ONLY reason I have to hate your texture. Difficult to work with.
