I started this one right after I lost the last painting’s file. Lines are copied from an animation screenshot. My mom took my tablet away because I spent too much time on it. I had to use the mouse and pen layers in Sai to finish it. This might be the only time I use a mouse to draw on computer ever.

The initial version’s color was a bit off. The saturation was too high and all the colors were shifted towards red. This was because my laptop had a CCFI screen which tends to show less red. As a result, I used colors that are extremely red so that it looked good on my screen. After I bought an IPS-LED monitor, I went back and adjusted its color. Details can be found in the related links (in Chinese, but there are image comparisons).

I started to use tons of layers in this work. You can see that from the process above.
