Ruwalk Stylin' a Yukata

People have been talking to me about SAI, so voila, my first one hundred percent digital picture from sketch to color in... a long, long time. I'll have to admit, I was skeptical at first, but the line control on SAI isn't so bad.

Anyhoo, this also serves as a last minute entry into the Dragon Knights Fanclub's "Summer Fun" contest. I know now is sort of an odd time to become a member but... well, I saw other people do it, and sometimes I'm monkey see monkey do.

I wanted something simple and instantly thought "yukata=summer", although, I realize that because of the warm color palette this is probably more of an autumn image than a summer one. In retrospect, if I really wanted to go with summer it would have been better to go with Kaistern since he's sky blue and all.

And while we're on that topic I suppose Alfeegi would be like spring and Tetheus like winter.
