Power of Booksby *Sabaku-no-hana

Manga & Anime / Traditional Media / Mixed Media

Hello!
It's been a while guys! :]
I don't know how many of you read my last journal but I said I would do one drawing per week at least so I can come back and get used to the routine of drawing digitally again. So, to get started here I have an illustration that took me for ever to draw xD

This is a homework I had to hand in last week for class, I liked it so much I colored it and I'm presenting it tomorrow to class again. It still needs a couple things I need to fix but I'll do that later. Btw, if she seems familiar to you, she is somewhat a fan-art of Sophie from Howl's moving castle :]

This was done on a 22x16 inch paper, lines done by pencil and I colored this on Paint tool Sai and retouched it with Photoshop :]
-----

I will upload this on my website, I'll give you guys the link once I upload it <3 Thanks for the support! I'll see you guys again next week!

*EDIT* Omg... I just went through all the comments, thank you so so so much guys!

I like your fan-art Sophie. She looks happy, and also not trying to be old xD
