Cyan Ikuno/Emerald Luminous

The runaway princess of the Emerald kingdom. She’s been living in Japan for 4 years. She’s the one who “gifted” Mana her necklace (which turned out to be Kris). She's a mentor figure to Mana, Aki, and Chitose. Or at least she tries to be. The other girls don’t really take her all that seriously to her dismay. She tries to be a calm, rational adult but falls short most times. She wasn’t able to transform for a long time. Maybe something was holding her back. Something she deeply regrets.

Hahaha, second comic cover of Crystal Illumination!!! This time it features the deuteragonist of CI, Aki Ayano/Shiny Quartz!! imma just take this opportunity to tell u abt her

Aki is lot like your typical magical girl heroine. Very clumsy, a crybaby, and she does very terribly in school. (so basically usagi-) but i mean, she's not totally her.. she's actually a little sporty despite her clumsiness. she's just a dummydumdum trying her best

she's been Shiny Quartz a year before the story begins. despite mana/crystal illumination being her best friend since like.. a long time, she still hasn't figured Aki out. which is mostly because she's blind. she's also crushing on Shiny Quartz mad hard, so it's a little awkward for aki to bring it up (especially since she's dating mana's brother)

anyway, that's all i got for now!! I will rant more abt CI at a later time

well since I finished drawing the cover

ig I'll talk abt my original magical girl comic "Crystal Illumination"

It's about a girl named Mana Kurumi who finds a magical (or possessed) necklace that's actually a gem sprite named Kris. It turns out that she's been chosen to become a legendary warrior named Crystal Illumination and fight against the Garnet King Bronze! Using the power of Kris, she can transform into Crystal Illumination!

Crystal Illumination has been floating around in my brain for a while and I'll admit.. the story is basically just Sailor Moon on diet coke/lh.

There's also our other main characters Aki, Chitose, and Etsuko/Cyan. Aki is Shiny Quartz (based on Rose Quartz), Chitose is Ruby Phoenix (Rubies are the theme), and Cyan is Emerald Luminous (Emeralds obviously)

They're all reincarnations of legendary warriors (Sailor Moon influence is big here)

The gem names represent the kingdom that each warrior basically originated from

The Quartz Republic (Shiny Quartz/Rose Quartz was her original name)

The Ruby Kingdom (Ruby Phoenix)

The Emerald/Garnet Kingdom (Emerald Kingdom)

The Sapphire Kingdom (supposed to be Crystal Illumination who was originally called Sapphire Illumination. The reason why the name was changed was because one of the incarnations lowkey kinda hated the sapphire kingdom so she was like 'f*ck them mate' and changed the name to remove the mention of sapphires)

that's all I have for now but maybe I'll share more one day!
