Swim

After many years already, I went back on Gaia Online to look for that famous Lineart threat I loved so much. I was quite surprised to see that it's still the same thread I used to browse at least 2 years ago, and it's also as active as it was.

This is one of the linearts cold-blooded-angel posted a few days ago. I found the pose interesting and figured i could work on my lighting a bit with this one for an easy start. Came up with a background in 20 mins, to fill the void. Hardest part was probably making the lighting on the bikini top, I'm not satisfied with that part. And I unconsciously made it look melon-y >_<;

Took me about 6 hours or so, give or take. All done with Photoshop CS2 and wacom.
