For Firefly276’s mascot contest! : D This is her store’s mascot, Keika. She’s saying hello to a Luna Moth~

There was a point with this where I wanted to stop, and redo the shading, but I decided to keep on going. I’m glad I did, because Keika was a pleasure to draw once I continued.

Also I hope you don’t mind that she ended up being with a moth. As you know, I originally planned for her to be with a butterfly, but afterward I realized that a moth would make more sense, with it being night and all… X_x
I didn’t think this moth looked as ugly as most moths though, especially from the top, so I hope it’s okay.
_{Though I probably should have spent more time on the moth.. hmm.}

Thanks for looking~

I made this for my sister’s Christmas card~ I don’t normally post them, but she requested for me to post it this year so she can show her friends. :3 She really liked it~

It’s of her characters, Destinea (blue bunny) and Mizerrei (purple bunny)
Derp Dessy’s wing blends into the tree, I didn’t notice until AFTER she opened the card.. OTL

I tried doing more lineless work, since I figured I had like, a week to finish it and skipping the line art would be faster. XD; I also had to wake up early and let her sleep in so I could work on it without her seeing.
Originally, I was planning on it being traditional, to make the “her not seeing” easier, but.. I couldn’t find my pencil crayons. And I didn’t have the right Copic colours. OTL

But it was fun, and even though I stressed over it a lot, seeing her face when she opened the card made it aaaaalll worth while. (seriously, she was more shocked at/happy about the card than the presents I got her XD)

Merry belated Christmas! (or is it belated Merry Christmas…? hmmm)

P.s.: This is the card she gave me! <33
Erik should wear a beard more often… XDD

Why do I keep doing Animal Crossing fan art? Like, of all games.. I choose AC. OTL I guess it’s because I’ve been addicted lately haha

Anyways, ONCE AGAIN.. I wanted to try something different! 8D So, they’re lineless~! I also used more of the AC style than my own. I’m sorry.

Why do I keep drawing snowy pictures when I hate winter? I don’t know. XD;; I really just wanted to draw my outfit ROFL. Though I made up a lot of it. _{(my dress isn’t quite like that, and those shoes don’t exist in AC)}

I added Shevi (Usagi) after. Her outfit is designed by ~Alpakaz _{(who also suggested the title for this picture)} C: She’s dressed in red, I’m the one in blue.

I hope everybody had a great weekend!

“Fight for all you know
when your back’s against the wall
stand against the liars!
Stronger than before
when your life becomes a war.
Set the world on fire!”
Set the World on Fire by Black Veil Brides.
_{{ listen to it here! }}

“Set the world on fire” is one of the first english songs to catch my interest in months. As soon as I heard it, I was like “…ERIK SONG.” and it inspired this picture. Which took like. Forever to do. lol.
I find it weird that Transformers songs often make it onto that playlist… hm…

ANYWAYS. These are my characters Erik (black/white hair), Lacey (purple hair, ONLY girl), and Tobias (long white/black hair).

I tried making it a tad more realistic than I usually do. _{AKA: I gave them noses.} I like the result, I can’t say for sure if I’ll keep doing this style though. I also tried making the line art thinner than normal~
On top of that, I toned Lacey’s outfit down and made it a little less futuristic looking, since the story isn’t futuristic in a sense. I mean, it is but everybody would still dress the same as they do now… OTL
ALSO their colours are still the same as before, the fire is just tinting it. c:

Since it looked horrible when zoomed out it’s bigger than normal. ENJOY.
Also, this is my 100th deviation on DeviantART. <333 My 50th was a quickpaint of Tobi here, so I figured these three would be perfect for such a milestone! Edit, July 25, 2012: changed some small details so it would look better as a print. c: You can find the old version here. Thank you!
