Hi hi @squiddlyn!! I was your gifter for the @bokumonoexchange!!
I was really excited to get you, I've actually reblogged some of your art on my main before!!! And your prompts REALLY got my creative juices flowing.
Yuri of ELISE of all characters HAS to be done in an 80s shoujo style. I spent... over 3 weeks of my almost even month of working for this exchange daily on this piece alone. This is... a major departure from my usual style, which made it quite the challenge! Soft and detailed is the antithesis of how I draw, so I... definitely had a time with this!
Overall I'm EXTREMELY happy with how this came out; minus the rose bushes (rip) it came out just about perfect to what I was imagining. I hope you love it too!
But that's not all...
You get another piece, too!!
I really, really couldn't decide which prompt to do. I had very vivid ideas for both pieces, so I was pleased to be able to do both! Especially when you posted your pieces and talked about Animal Parade, it made me that much more motivated to finish this one, too!
This one was also a major departure from my style, but a simpler one. DEFINITELY a good break after the other piece. It also came out how I imagined!
Overall I hope you enjoy! I am very excited to go back to my regular art style after these major diversions from it.
(I'll also DM you links to the pieces in full resolution!)
