Well I drew this a while back for a battle here and at the time I knew there would be a use for it in the future. I was looking for the perfect present to give to my girlfriend for our one year anniversary :), so I put this together tonight. I touched up the original, I cell shaded it (or my best attempt at it at least…), and I tried my hardest to create a good background to put it in. I am planning to give her both this file (except in png form instead of jpg) and a professional print of the original drawing of her. Comments are welcome, total time put into this is about 4 or 5 hours. I think it turned out pretty well considering it’s both my first “portrait” (don’t know what else to call it) and my first wallpaper, and I’m not a very experienced artist.
