Fleeting Friendship Art

It would have been the end of me that day had you not saved me from making an irreversible mistake and paying the ultimate price... Swiss, you didn't just save me from death, but you saved me from living another day without cause or purpose.

Swiss, from my story, Fleeting Friendship.

I'm really pleased with how this turned out. I opted to use thicker lines than usual and am satisfied with the result. I might try that in the future, because it helps make some lines stand out a bit more, which is a good effect. I also simply had to shade this properly, because Swiss is one of my favorite characters from my stories and she really needed a tribute.

I decided to give her somewhat different eyes in comparison to usual Shinx eyes. The style I used give her more of a cute look. I don't make a habit of mixing things up, but sometimes it has nice results. :3

The background is sort of abstract, but it was fun to do because it's not my usual sort of I-don't-care abstract, but one with a lot of soft colors that seemed to be appropriate to her. The yellow is almost like a sun shining down on her and fits well with her shading. I don't know if they're clouds or just blobs, but I like 'em.

She's so cute. This is so gonna be my wallpaper on my laptop~ <3
