The Power of Your Own Star

WHAT IS THIS?! SERIOUS COMPLETED ARTWORK?!!

So this one probably took me 20-25 hours... just guessing, didn't really keep track. BUT IT TOOK A LONG TIME. As usual.

SO MUCH PINK.

This was originally a request from someone (!!!!!!!!), but her account was banned who knows how long ago... which I didn't realize until I was ready to start shading/highlighting this BUT it's PERFECTLY okay because I really needed to draw current Sakura fanart anyway. So this is a request I was HAPPY to do!
So here you go banned deviant that may happen to see this if you got a new account: Sakura in her Movie 2 outfit

LOOK AT THE CARD DAMMIT. FOR SOME REASON I KEEP BEING A PERFECTIONIST AND COPIED THAT CARD TWICE. Once for pencil sketch, once for lineart.

I tried to make more obvious drop shadows where they were needed, like under her pieces of hair and behind her staff. I do like where it's not OBVIOUS SHADING IS OBVIOUS, but I still need to learn where it's okay to see obvious shading and highlights
Point is, I think I improved with this one.

As for the background, had a couple suggestions from friends, and they kinda lumped together with my own idea and became this I like it, but what do you guys think of it?
Again I put way too much detail in the background that no one would ever guess is there x'D

I should go back and draw new fanart of old characters more now. And draw new characters. And just draw lots and lots and lots of things
Too bad school starts in less than a week, so that'll hinder me some, but hopefully not too much...

Anyway, enjoy guys!
