NanoFate. I wanted to play more with the colors but I’m too sleepy and I don’t think I really wanna work on this beyond today.

Fate is love.

Random guy, random style, random perspective (or the lack of it).

I just wanted it out of my WIP folder already! It’s been waiting to get finished since forever but I know I won’t really touch it again so here it is.

Nanoha and Fate, once again. Inspiration for this came from a fanfic by Arigatou Sheitarou entitled, “Tell Me A Secret”. [link]

I particularly liked the imagery that the writing made me visualize, though the initial idea (in my head) is different from the actual execution I did.

Also, i found it refreshing (and difficult) not to depend on the characters’ faces - particularly the eyes - to portray emotion. I need to practice more on image atmosphere.

Anyway, hope you like it.

I guess Nanoha likes catching everyone off-guard.

“In the terminal she sleeps on my shoulder,
Hair falling forward, mouth all askew.
Fluorescent announcements beat their wings overhead:
“Passengers missing, we’re looking for you.”
And she dreams through the noise, her weight against me,
Face pressed into the corduroy grooves.”

- Vienna Teng, “Recessional”

For a long time now, I’ve been wanting to draw the image in my head whenever I listened to this song. Fate’s (possible) feelings for Nanoha, I thought, would fit perfectly for this.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t very happy with the background initially. But thankfully it was treated with some Ruben-magic so now it looks better.

The happy family~ :3 Featuring Nanoha, Fate and the adorable Vivio.

My first Nanoha x Fate fanart (not counting my doodles prior to this) *giddy*

yeah i just recently got into them (and the series). im not up to date anymore lol.

Title police, don’t hunt me down.

Title is the translation of the Ruzzie’s name.

I like how her hair came out here.

Konoka x Setsuna fanart!

No bg. Too lazy. This has been left unfinished too long. But it looks summer-y anyway, even without bg. Maybe…? XD

Secchan’s (black haired) pose was borrowed from a rough sketch I saw some time ago… I forgot from where. @_@; Konochan’s (brown haired) pose is improvised so it may not look as well-made as Secchan’s.

Enjoy!

Konoka: Secchaaaan~~ Daisuki! *glomp*

Setsuna: O-ojou-sama…! *blush*

I like how this one turned out a lot. The sketchiness, the perspective (that killed me just to get it right.) and the pastel colors. It seems the washed effect is really my specialty. (actually I think its just because I suck at other styles! lol!)

I like how Konochan’s hair came out best. Initially, Secchan was not as cooperative as Konochan when I was coloring them, but fortunately, she decided to behave for her princess. ^_~

They look a little bit more adult here too. My style tends to do that, I guess. How old do you think they are here? I’m thinking 19-20?

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy. Really loved working on this one.
