I also have been working on my own art for the first time in awhile.

@Yana: Here is some more previews of the progress, because it seems like you need something to cheer you up :]







I love prismacolor markers :]

I have done the line-art over three times now, and I was going to do it a 4th time last night because I fucked up the shading... but i'm glad I stuck with it and worked it out. I'm REALLY happy with it. When it is done I'll post a good quality picture :] I'll probably mail it to Yana after the holiday season, to avoid the massive clusterfuck mess that is the postal system around this time of the year. I'm hoping it makes it to Moscow unharmed.
