Description Helloooo

The other day at midnight I had this urgeee to leave work for a bit and draw something soft and flowy-flowy then color it with watercolors. Two hours later I had the lineart for this, but was too much of a chicken to color it traditionally (guess who lacks practice!), so I scanned it in and decided to practice that not-much-care-for-colors-over-lines-and-try-to-make-it-look-like-a-painting challenge that I've been doing in my past pictures. XD I really like how it turned out! : ) Fail empty background though, err...oops. : P

I happily spent my last few hours as a teenager coloring this, haha! crap I'm oooooooold D:

Oh, and I haven't played the game but I have it on my PSP! Ready for...the supposed upcoming blackouts tomorrow because of the new typhoon. ;A; Stay safe you guys!

I wasn't a big fan of Saber until Type Moon released Saber Lily. Hell the figma figure of her got me to actually watch the series. This piece is rather special... Aside from the awesome lineart, the colours and colouring style is perfect. Nice and light... I was skeptical about the lack of a visible face at first but now I find it possesses a melancholic quality... I really like it! It would be nice if there was a very light fading field of lilys for a background though.

Ah I rarely get comments like this, thanks! I'm glad you think so. : )
Now that you mention it, a fading field of lilies would have been nice for a background, wish I thought of that earlier. :'D

Ah, to think I was inspired by someone else to do my Saber Lily when I have inspired you, too! I love how the soft colours really work together! Would be lovely if you put her eyes in but it may spoil the mood of the picture? And happy belated birthday to you

tomokii In reply to Mizu-Lucia [2009-10-05 11:30:01 +0000 UTC]

I might have broken the chain right here, haha! I originally wanted to draw her eyes too but it somehow didn't look like how I wanted it to, so I removed it. I guess that's a pretty big mistake there, need watch out for it next time. XD And thank you! : )

I liiiiiiike the shading of the wrinkles on the cloth and the metal. I think you got 'soft" and "flowy-flowy" just right, even if you didn't use watercolors (which I wanna see from you someday 8D).

I'm really afraid that I might get a lot of comments saying it looks empty, since a friend pointed out that this looks almost like nothing on some monitors. : (

Sizzleboom In reply to tomokii [2009-10-02 12:46:33 +0000 UTC]

Really? Well, frankly, I find it a bit strange your friend said that. O_o The turth is, with my monitor settings, you can see a very large range of different shades withing one colour, so I'm quite sure your friend's monitor just hasn't got the contrast turned up enough, causing it to make a lot of shades look like the same colour. I can tell you put a lot of thought into how to do the shading here. ^_^

Merollet [2009-10-02 08:46:28 +0000 UTC]

It's so beautiful!!! *o* Really makes me want to draw Saber Lily, but what really inspired me are the two figures of her I've seen x3 And then I saw this wonderful drawing you made
What I love the most here is the colours you used and the way you coloured it <33

I can't see any bit of the drawing where the colours would go over the lines, it's just perfect like this. I never knew how to paint digitally, but you managed to make this look like some kind of a watercolour picture I also love the effect/pattern, or whatever you used, it makes the picture have a traditional feeling ^^ If you actually used something xD but it's great <3

And happy birthday again x3

Her clothes were really fun to draw and color, even if I missed some parts...using a lot of different fanarts/figures as reference confused me XD I can't wait to see your version And yes the Saber Lily figures look really pretty!


Colors over lines can be seen at the original size and it's horrendous hahaha XD Thank you for the nice comments, Chiisana-chan, it really made me happy ;A;
