Artist's Comments

First of all, a MILLION thank yous to the amazing cloeliae:iconcloeliae: For helping me out with Touya! I couldn't have done it without her!

Oh how I wish I had a better image of this! There is SO much detail lost, it makes me want to cry!

Now, let's see...anyone familiar with Cardcaptor Sakura will know of Yue's impossibly long hair; as such, my friend and I loving refer to him as Rapunzel. That planted an art bunny in my head for about the last year, and now I've finally gotten it drawn!

With Touya as Prince Charming, of course, since my last piece was a Clow/Yue.

I intended to have Touya making an "OMG, WTF?" face, which Cloeliae had helped me with; unfortunately, as I neared the end, I realized it just didn't fit *is sad*

I am so very pleased with this piece. Of course there are parts I still cringe at, but I will not point those out to y'all!

Prismacolor pencils (used 3/4 a black) 18x24 inch paper. Took over a month, yo o.0

Sold to a boy from my college library for $50. Not bad for a picture I didn't think i'd ever sell. I wonder how long it will take for someone to recognize the characters and tell him Yue's a boy! ;) I won't tell if you won't.

Thank you very much! With luck, I will have a newer, better image of it by tommorrow evening! If not...well, it's back to MS paint for me! It's completely ghetto editing, but I've done it before.

Keep practicing; every time i use Prisas, I figure out something new you can do with them!

Aww, awesome. :3 This is great. ^^

This is BEAUTIFUL!! And you did it with colored pencils... wow!! Magnificent :) What prisma pencils did you use for this? I ask because I would like to invest in a nice set of them but there are several tyles (waterscolor, thin etc) just wondering which ones you used here :)

Hiya! ^^ Thank you very much! I just use the standard original Prismacolor pencils. I've tried the Verithins and find them too hard-leaded to get a smooth, rich laydown. Yeah, they're rather pricey, but if there's one art supply to spoil yourself with, it's Prismacolor...and Copics...

*Is dying for a set of copics paint markers*

alrighty thank you :D Yeah, I really want to get a nice big set of Prisma colors. I have their chalk pastels and they were worth every penny! I want copics too... they look amazing but sooo pricy :$
