Sailor Moon + markers

Made this A5-sized marker illustration today while listening to Ayumi Hamasaki's Love songs album. I ordered it a few days before Christmas, and it arrived today. Inspiration come my way! <3 The packaging, booklet and songs are all so beautiful. Must be my favourite Ayu album since (miss)understood and Secret. I've loved all her work so far, but this feels so nostalgic and familiar.

Anyway, since the album is such a prize and booklet pictures very pretty, I drew Sailor Moon in front of a mirror just like Ayu in one of the pictures. The pose went haywire but I'm happy with the colouring! I've had problems with Copics since forever but I think we've achieved some sort of mutual understanding now. Also! Roses cut from scrapbook paper. -loves-

Attention: these other two are not quite work-safe. I have been reading Sky Doll lately and wanted to draw Neo-Queen Serenity in a dress similar to Agape's. Her breasts look like balloons, it's quite freaky... I'm more a fan of small breasts if I'm completely honest. Also, the other one is obviously porn work of Seiya (Sailor Star Fighter) and Sailor Moon, a pairing I like very much. Um. It was a marker practice, honest. Kinda. Sorta. An excuse to draw as much bare skin as possible? XD Sigh, no one's going believe me anyway, so why bother? I just love Sailor Moon's blushing face, she looks so cute. I wish Naoko Takeuchi had shown her more often with her hair undone~

These were all drawn on my new marker pad. I can't stand those really thin marker papers, they always get wrinkly when I try to draw on them. This one is much better. It's Letraset Cartridge Paper (Heavyweight), 270 g/m2. Ah, how smoothly the colours blend on this paper! I think I'm in love, haha.
