Madoka kaname and Kyubey by mightypie9001 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

I recently finished the show madoka magica (well actually I finished it about 2 or 3 weeks ago, but whatever!) because Im good at shading with normal pencils so I thought I would use colored pencils again to see if they would look good, and the coloring on this actually turned out to be great, personally I think this is one of the best drawings so far, and it was done 100% with colored pencils! (even the linework as you can see was done with colored pencil) I gotta admit though as much as I love how this looks I HATEEEEEEEEEE using colored pencils, like this took me 17 HOURS in total to finish, just because when you color with colored pencils, in order to make the coloring smooth you MUST take such a long time =_= but I guess because I am happy with how this looks, it means I WILL buy new colored pencils and actually use them this time.

I wanna point out THE PIECE OF PAPER ALMOST RIPPED BECAUSE OF HOW LONG IT TOOK TO COLOR THE HAIR!!!! seriously, I gotta buy actual drawing paper someday...

I will point out a few flaws in this picture, I think the anatomy for the lower torso looks a little off I drew her legs a little higher then they where suppose to be placed, on top of that because my colored pencils weren't carefully sharpened the coloring on the eyes where not as good as I wanted it to be.
