Gift For Yamio

This is my gift for an artist whom I really look up to an admire, I wanted to draw her OC, Yami Rose as a little sign of gratitude for taking the time to make tutorials for us and for being such a wonderful kind inspiration to me and those who look up to her. I really hope you see this, and I hope you like it, I spent an extremely long time trying to perfect and capture Yami Rose's beauty and cuteness and give her an outfit that flattered her design and personality. I tried to do softer shading with all my heart but near the end I realized it looked kinda dull. *cries* 

Yamio's  art work is very beautiful and charming just like her personality ^^ I've been a fan of hers for a long time and I find her tutorials to be incredibly helpful even though I do not uses SAI. For my watchers that draw anime/ manga and draw digitally I highly recommend checking  her out! 

I'd also like to apologize for taking so long to upload, finals are next week and school's been crazy, this piece also threw new challenges at me and took a while, but it's always good to feel challenged because it feels that much better when you finish it ^^ This is my first time digitally drawing roses so what do you think? All comments and faves are appreciated.
