[dl for full size, kthx ]

I realize that I haven't drawn girls in a while. When I was younger, I had trouble drawing boys, and girls were easy, but lately, it's like it's been reversed.

So this is my way of, um, getting back in the game? I started a sketch of this some time before the end of last year, and I haven't touched it since until this morning.

Waahhh. This took a lot of time. D:

By the way, I guess those two could be called OC's. I really really wanted to draw Kanda and Miranda from D. Gray Man, but then I realized I didn't feel like drawing a boy with a pony tail. But I still think they'd make a cute couple. Or Miranda with Tyki. <3 Oh, and my recent fascination with DGM is the reason for the slightly gothic-fashion. Yay for chokers and lace. I wanted to go more 19th-century, but it just didn't look right. Hence the slut-up'd version of a frilly dress.

I'm done rambling. Sorry for wasting your time.

PS. I don't think this needs a warning for mature content, despite my roommate referring to it as softcore porn. He's just a wimp.

oh, and the lace brushes is by the always-awesome redheadstock
