This is a request I surprised with a while back, since she did the awesome Oom The Sun for me. :aww:

I spent extra time on this, paying attention to the details of certain things and making sure that it did Gankutsuou justice. :work: There weren't that many referrences to accurately recreate the patterns on certain parts of the count [like his scarf], so I had fabricate [pun intended :giggle:] some of them. :sherlock: I think they look alright, but then again, I could be wrong... :fear:

Lots of blood, endorphins, caffine, pizza [Mwahaha, Jenny Kryptonite! :stab:] and the occassional "how the hell am I going to do this?" moments went into this, so I learned A LOT out of doing this. :reading:

Hopefully likes it, since I was going to wait to post this until after I showed this to her. ^^; Well, if anything, now I can work on the comission she won from the 2,004th pageview hit, which should be fun. :dance:

The patterns are basically designs that never move (even though the character will move) ;P

This picture makes me happy! It's so beautiful!

The style of Gankutsuou was part of why I loved it so much. I don't remember ever seeing another show like it.

The show itself, very unique, but some of the stuff like the still patterns moving with characters in motion was something seen in other animations but not very much. :dance:

The colors are so beautiful~ <3 X3 =O WOW a whole month to do this? I can tell because of the great detailing! X3 Gawd, I wish I had the patients you do. I also wish I was good at putting my amazement into better words, because this picture so deserves some great comments, but sadly all I can say is this picture is awesome and deserves sooooo many more faves than it has :heart:

Hehe. xD

Yup, a whole month tinkering on it to get it done. :work: The thing that took me the most was creating those patterns - there wasn't any solid referrences for them so I had to guess at some of them. :sherlock:

It's because of comments like these that I continue making the vectors that I do. ;P

Check out the rest of my gallery. ^3^
