Sayakaaaaa

WELL.
I think it goes without saying that I REALLY like how this one came out????
Not gonna lie, this is my favorite digital art piece I've done ever.

Bonus water effect: lackadaisicalleopah.deviantart…

I've had the inspiration for a while, but I didn't start this until last night. I did the sketch, lineart, and base coloring last night and everything else today.
I was going to speedpaint this but I ended up doing the whole thing and continuously forgetting to. Oh well. It was a lot of me messing with special effects anyway.

The coloring didn't quite turn out how I wanted it to, due to the fact that I wanted to do watercolor-type coloring but my new SAI doesn't have a fringe effect so I couldn't do it. And I didn't want to have to get a new SAI just for that. I did download some extra textures for SAI though and that's how I did the coloring.

This thing also has about a billion layers. Well, more like 20. I kinda went crazy with the special effects. I hope it's not too much.

The colors are also double-saturated so that's why they're kinda bright.

I'm in love with pink multiply shading I'm never going back.

I love Sayaka. I'm so glad I cosplay her. Best decision of my life.

I haven't uploaded a digital picture of Sayaka in a while though. I did two last year, and you can see the improvement since then.
