Song: My Sweet Heart
Artist: Rika Komatsu
Anime: Tokyo Mew Mew
DISCLAIMER: I do not own the music or the anime (obviously). Tokyo Mew Mew belongs to Studio Perriot, Mia Ikumi, and Reiko Yoshia. If I owned Tokyo Mew Mew, Ichigo would have paired off with Kissu, Masaya would actually be a man, Mint and Zakuro would have more in depth characterizations, and Lettuce would have a mohawk. Everyone else is fine with way they are.

So, here's my new speed paint of Ichigo Momomiya, the main character of Tokyo Mew Mew. Now mind you, I actually dislike Ichigo. I found her to be a rather annoying Mary-Sue. But her paired off with Kisshu is awesome. Anyway, this picture was originally from my sketchbook. I've been wanting to edit this picture for the longest time but because of time restraints due to school, I wasn't able to. This picture was done in my Biology class. It's weird. The pictures I drew in Bio always ended being pretty good. Instead of listening to the lecture (because I already knew the subject since I changed classes) I decided to practice my foreshortening...since I suck at it. And lo and behold, I made a success! Thank you for blessing me with random drawing successes, Bio. XD I also drew Mew Blackberry in Bio too. :P The only reason I drew Mew Ichigo was because I could not think of any other character to draw. I tried doing Miku...but then her hair ended up screwy. I distinctly remember them looking like mutated bananas. Blah. I hope you like the picture!
I tried to be more bold in my shading this time. Ever since I drew Xion, I wanted to be more and more realistic and dynamic with my shading. I hope I'm improving. XO I also strayed from my usual drawing style and made the art much more shoujo than I'm used to. It's also more cartoonish that usual...it felt weird to draw this. .__.
The pattern does not belong to me. I forgot where I got it, but I downloaded it somewhere. All you have to do is Google "photoshop patterns" and you'll get a bunch.
So...the voice recorded is mine. I sound so much younger and Asian. o__o I recently got a microphone thingy and I really wanted to try it out. Sorry if the quality is bleh. I didn't bother editing it. I also wanted to practice my Japanese a bit. It was all done impromptu so please don't mind any errors in my grammar. I tried to keep it simple so I could avoid any mistakes.
Okay, so CamStudio hardly lagged my computer this time. I was so FREAKING HAPPY.
And I just watched the Black Rock Shooter OVA and OMGITISSOAWESOMEGOWATCHITNOOOOOOW

That was great! So beautiful!

[TheGreatMillz]

@MrsFeelingCrafty Thanks a lot!

[MsLOLieZ]

I feel like watching this now

[TheGreatMillz]

@MsLOLieZ Actually, Tokyo Mew Mew isn't that good of an anime. If you're looking for a better magical girl, I recommend either Shugo Chara, Princess Tutu, or Puella Magi Madoka Magica. I really haven't watched much magical girl anime (not really into it) but those are the ones that I liked.

[TheGreatMillz]

@Nachtelfin0des0Todes Actually, no. I'm not Japanese. I took a Japanese language class for 4 years.
