So. Where to begin. Again, I am finishing a long forgotten project up until the wee hours of the night. I suppose it'll be the duty of the viewers to see if they can spot which part was done last xDD'
About the picture.. hmm... well this is one of the images from my favourite scene in Volume 08. When Yura showed me, approximately a year ago, I gushed over the scene and really wanted to make an icon out of it. However, one thing turned into another and finally, I ended up colouring the whole thing. The whole process was a long and slow one as usual with my full panel stuff. Had a little imagination troubles, and ended up erasing and redoing many different parts more than necessary.
I love how colourful Beni's hair is no matter what. Although she is pale as a ghost in many reference colourings, the multi-coloured hair dye definitely makes up for it 8DD!
I hope it isn't too dull on your monitors X33;;
