I worked so incredibly hard on the largest I have ever done. The drawing is also the longest time that I took to get it all complete.

After more than ten months on working on this drawing from the very beginning, the drawing is finally finished! This is my Powerpuffed version of Zephyr Ultema Talsair, ~ultema's namesake character.

Originally, this was drawing was supposed to be for her birthday and it had to done as quickly as possible numerous times, but I ran into lots of problems instead.

The drawing had to be resized and reworked on a lot due to the detailing of her clothing as well as the entire character design. The entire drawing had to be held off for a while, because I had to work on my old oekaki website, because of the bugs that effected the site and I had to take a lot of time to get it all fixed and working correctly.

Once the lineart was completed, I started to work on the shading from the ground up and in the end, the shading in most parts of the drawing never turned out 100% great even though I even managed to colour the lineart.

Sadly, I'm not going to rework on the shading since it would be non-trivial to do so. Later this year, I might consider uploading the lineart version of this Ultema drawing that I did so that you can get a stab at colouring it.

The font that was used in this drawing was Seraphim, eroded unicase version of Bookman Old Style created on 17 February 1999 by Utopia Fonts.

I'm pretty glad that the drawing had to get all done before I submit my upcoming news article that Windows XP has transitioned to the Extended Support phase.

Comments and favs are welcome on this drawing. I have enabled critiques on this drawing if you don't mind.

Well, it's interesting. Your shapes are a bit stiff, but Oekaki isn't exactly the smoothest drawing medium. Compositionally, I wish you had thought out the angles of the Large/small character a bit more. (BTW, the font is a bit hard to read, you may want to chose something that doesn't invert the vowels next time).

The pale scheme is a bit washy, but I sort of like it. I think with a different composition (and a few more colors added in the highlights and shadow to add depth, since that's what it seems you're going for) it could work a little better.

Awww... CHIBI!
This is very cute, I had to go look up the character its supposed to be based on (I'm not an anime person anymore), and it's a fun little image.

Aspects that I like. The hair is really detailed for a chibi, which adds to the cuteness I think. I like the concept of the image as a whole, with the sky, clouds and stuff. The outfit is interesting, though it is a little odd to see a chibi with boobs lmao.

Stuff I'm not so fond of:
Yeah, clouds are white. Adding some blue either shadows or highlights, or just changing your lineart thickness would make them look more like clouds and less like washed out unfinished area of the drawing.

Just a tiny bit more contrast in the hair, skin, clothing, etc. Not much, but overall it's a very washed out colorscheme right now. Still cute, just you loose a lot of your details and stuff.

Thanks so much for the comment. As many as 932 colours were used in this drawing and it took so much patience and hard work to do such a drawing this big.

Yeah. :lol:

Even though people have put an extensive amount of work on a drawing, watchers may not eventually notice the new submission until either tomorrow or that they're interested at seeing it.
