First pixel art ever, but so much fun! *3* I didn't understand the tutorial (because I'm THAT blonde) so I just treated it like cellshade albeit with a pencil tool, it came out all right though. <3
The portrait took longer than the actual pixel art (kinda sad considering the latter's full-body), haven't CGed in Photoshop for AGES, man I love that programme.
SOME EXPLANATIONS: 1. It's pink and black because I love pink but I didn't want to blind myself while colouring it. 2. MILLITARY UNIFORM IS LOVE. Pleated skirts, ribbons, bows and boots are also love. 3. I'm sorry the only style I don't fail much at is shoujo.
I had a difficult time choosing the cool power I could use for this ID, since all the subjects I take are based around tonnes of writing, I thought pen and paper would be appropriate~
Her attack stats aren't awesome because let's face it, you can only do so much damage with paper cuts and other paper-made weaponry. Speed is mediocre because although paper flies fast, we should all know I'm the most unfit person in the world. 8D
The pen comes in for her "special attack" where she casts spells by writing the incantation down on paper, and I think the rest is pretty much self-explanatory. LOL.
Time: 15 hours+ Sketch & Portrait LineArt: Open Canvas 3.02e Plus Pixel LineArt & CG: Adobe Photoshop v.7.0
Wow what a long commentary, I blame Art History. O3O

Don't worry, it confused the hell outta me too.
Guess we're too blondes in the same boat?
It looks awesome though. I so want to make one, but like i said, i couldn't understand that tutorial for the life of me.
