Thanks for explaining! Thats neat how you did it with pencil... you're so talented! Yes, I love it You did amazingly and I can't wait to see more of your artwork!!
Thank you for your comment. That Grain was from the large woodless graphite pencil that I used. >w< It always makes such interesting textures. I'm very glad you like the picture <3
XD hahah Thanks, Yeah, Oddly enough... the area near the bottom of the picture (the hand) where the scan got a bit out of focus... actually looks really 3d-ish and real to me XD kind of weird but neat >w<
This was drawn in pencil, I used a mechanical, and a soft woodless graphite pencil (for the large areas of shading). This is actually a very big picture. The coloring I did by changing the tone settings using a computer program. Microsoft photo editor.

Aw, Aishia stole my word...haha, this really is gorgeous! I love the shading and detail work, and the different textures come across very nicely. Beautiful work!
I like how you can still see the grain from the paper itself in the shading. It gives it a nice classic look. The coloring looks quite sepia, which really suits the character and anime, I think. Well done!
