Thank you! And thank Lou for the colours, though really, I've no idea how I could've done the duel scenes in pencil, that whole scene is just ART. (For, like, Steve and Tony for example? Oh god that reminds me, I need to learn to draw the Iron Man armour. All sharp angles and clear lines and tech stuff, woe!) It's still - man, how do I say this without sounding full of myself, but it really amazes me how much of Luke I managed to catch in that girl's face. Though there I think the pencil drawing had a certain warmness that maybe is missing here a little?

Really? tbh I really don't like that one much - the expression is weird and her face still looks weirdly grey and zombie-like. Though I guess the rest is ok (look, I even somehow got the really weird hands). (I love the shadows-in-faces thing. It's pretty much my favourite thing about drawing. You get the outlines, which is a bit of hard work, but once you've got that it's just going crazy. And maybe now I'm starting to get the hang of colour shadows-in-faces, which is supercool when done right (and results in people looking blue when not).)

Edit: god, it's just painfully obvious that I just read the Buffy Speak entry on TVtropes, isn't it?

(For Tony and Steve, for example. ^^ But I'll be glad about everything you come up with. I don't think I've ever had art for my fics, it's so exciting!)

I can't tell you why I like the Yoda one so much, maybe it's something to do with all the green (which is is one of my favourite colours, so), but I think all of them are great. The last one especially (shadows in faces! ;)).

I have to admit that I don't know what Buffy Speak is, but I dread looking it up on TV Tropes, because then my night will be RUINED. XD

Also: your letter arrived today, chocolate and pictures and all! Wheeeeee. So sweet and lovely, thank you! :D
