Shira's, like, the only char I'll allow to be called 'kawaii'. She's also the only char I'll use 'kawaii' in reference to. But it's because she's Japanese-American and I can do that.

I really love how this came out. Took me about 20-30 minutes for the inital sketch and then another hour or two to clean and tighten the lines up. No, it's not inked, that's all pencil.

I don't know if I'm going to anything else with this. I really want to take the time to digitally ink it, but I don't know if I'll have the time. D: I'd really like to finish it for Anthrocon, as well.
