Artist's Comments

Anime: Kanon
Character: Nayuki Minase


It's Nayuki running in high heels in all her glory... after all, this is what you expect from the captain and fastest runner of her high school track team.


What happens if you take the (primary or) secondary heroine from the visual novel/anime called Kanon, take her out of the winter setting, and put her into an entirely new setting? The above picture should at least answer the gist of the question.


Nayuki is depicted here running towards something or someone (perhaps you, the viewer) in her semi-formal wear that I came up with. The background depicts a fictional place located somewhere in the world that has a Mediterranean climate (which I also came up with).

The character, textures, ocean, and sky were created in Photoshop.

The 3D models that make up the stone and wrought iron fence were created in 3dsmax.


EDIT #1: The brick pavement and walls now have texture. The long shadow actually blurs as it stretches farther and farther from the character.


There will be more new edits to come...

Critiques


:iconkarla-chan:
The dress is well done the way you have put the creases and the shadows in there, i think that is the most natural and well done thing about the picture.
The shading on the skin is also very good and you have bared in mind where the lighting is and it matches her shadow. You can tell you have thought about that part carefully and it looks very good.
Improvements, i think that you need the background to have more texture to it to make this better. The colours look to bold and there is no real different to one part of the background and the colour. I think it would be a very amazing picture if you added the texture.
The gradient of the sky looks good.
One other improvement i would suggest is her hair, i think it needs to flow and look like it is moving more.

I think this is way better than the first version! The face and the hair looks better that way. I don't know if you wanted that, but the hair looks a bit like cat ears and this is disturbing me a little. Maybe if it was a bit rounder it would bring less attention to this.

The colors are beautiful and the shading are very well done. One thing on the dress, the belly part has too much folds. She looks like she is way too skeletal. I think this part should be more flat so we can see she has a belly.

You are on the right way! Keep it up!

Nice :) I like the backgroud.
I especially like the shading :)
P.S. Running in high-heeled shoes is a very bad idea =_= It's easy to sprain an ankle then.

Thanks for the comment.

Yeah, it is a very bad idea in general, yet there exists people who can do just that.
