@aragorn1014:

You're welcome :3 Happy New Year to you, too ^_^

@CelestialSushi:

Wahh thank you! >.< I'm very glad!~ I know there are quite a few Dino fans out there so I was a little concerned when I drew him, but I'm happy that you like how he turned out! Happy New Year and thank you so so much!<33

@DixieWings:

I was taking forever to reply to this because I just kept reading it over and over and being awestruck everytime instead of pushing the reply button xD
You really give me too much credit, Dixie-chan! >.< *super duper hugs* I really wanted to host this year and bring a lot of people together for a community event, and since I did that I couldn't be happier! I just love seeing a bunch of the theOtaku community come together for things like that ^^ That's the best part!<3 And thank you for being a part of it! *hugs*
I shall definitely have to draw something for YOU someday as thanks for the support<3 You gave such a detailed comment, thank you so much! I really am glad you think it turned out well~!
Omg no, there are much more inspiring people than me, trust me haha! I am working hard to be a person that people can look to for inspiration and anything at all, so that means so much to me >.< *super hugs* I had lots of fun, Dixie-chan!<33 Happy New Year and love ya bunches!

@:

LOL what are you talking about?! xD It's the quality of the picture that counts! You produce such superb-quality work with the amount of time you take >.< I really wish you could be my senpai and teach me your techniques! haha<3
Haha well then we can both learn together!<3 Thank you so much King-san! >.< *hugs* Good luck to us in 2012! And it's YOU whose art I can't wait to see more of! =)

@:

Aww King-san!! >.< *super hugs* Thank you SO much! T__T That really means a lot coming from you~!
I really worked hard on the coloring for this and the hair especially since those are my two main problem areas, so I'm glad you think it turned out well overall! I'd probably need advice from you on coloring though, since you're so amazing at it! xD
I will try to work much harder in 2012! >.< Thanks so much again King-san for your kind words!<33 Have a happy new year!<3

Dino being one of my favorite characters from KHR, I really, really like this :D Not only is it well-drawn and colored, you drew him with a slightly softer-looking face :D *hugs and faves*

I'm loving the dynamic pose and the soft coloring! Seriously, I really like how you colored his jacket, it looks really soft and comfortable. Only thing is that I would advice a bit darker shading under his arm, the shadows the arm cast and for example the head and neck casts. There's not much shading on the face but for some reason it really fits with the pic. gives some calm to it, probably has to do something with the background. The turtle looks so random and happy haha :D Great work!

totally diggin the hair too, you must do a hair tutorial sometime :P

MewChero was definitely lucky to get you as her Secret Santa ♥
There's so much motion and tension in the pose and it's absolutely gorgeous! I love how the clothing folds are so defined and the highlights and shades only serve to compliment them. This is the kind of art I admire and aspire to create one day. And although it's only been as simple as eight days since your last post, I believe improvement can be seen between those two pieces. Dino (and Enzo) look amazing in your style. Yours is definitely one of those gifts that are worth waiting for - I'm sure Chero-chan agrees on that. Thank you for holding such a wonderful event aragorn1014!! <3333 You really embody the spirit of theOtaku with everything you do ö3ö

@Aria Sky:

Thank you so much~! I'll try to work much harder in the coming years! >.<

@15385bic:

Haha thank you so much Bic-san!<3 I've seen so much art of Hibari so I've thought about it, but we'll see xD I just might someday!

THE TURTLE IS SO CUUUUUTE<33333333333

I think the coloring turned out very nicely (>w<)b
Thanks for hosting the wonderful event ^^
*hugs*

This is simply wonderful Sayura!

I'm so impressed with this picture and how much you improved! I love the color scheme and how its not a mush of "mud colors" but have a nice balance of earthy tones.

I love the character, the pose and expression he's making! He looks completely bad ass. XD I love the composition too, it makes it much more interesting when the character is not at the center of the scene. :D

You did wonderfully my friend!

WOW that's amaaazing Sayuraaaaa! now I feel worse about my secret santa's gift! hahahaha
no but seriously I love this, and i love your style! your new years resolution should be to stay awesome! lol

Ohmigoodness, Sayura! This looks amazing! The coloring and the details are so stunning, and I've always liked sketchy lineart :D <3 And slkjfsdjkj THAT HAIR. <333 I can tell Chero really loves it, too!

This is probably my favorite picture by you.~ if you can say it on mine, then i can say it on yours. xD BUT IT'S THE TRUTH!

@aragorn1014:

*hugs back* haha just be more confident. I love it sooo much!
And I had fun with the SS! You're a great host!

@MewChero:

Whew! Haha I was so nervous and afraid that you wouldn't like how I drew him or something since I know absolutely nothing about KHR xD But I'm REALLY relieved and also very happy that you like how he came out! >.< I worked so so hard on this so I'm really glad! *hugs* Thank you again for being so patient with me, Chero-chan! I had SO much fun being your Santa this year! ^^
