'I'm watching you'

This is a little, um...cuter than usual for me, I guess?

Don't be fooled by the absence of purple hair; it's Fae with her canon coloring (with Az making a more subtle appearance there on the umbrella). Years ago when I first created her, I was still drawing anime people with crazy-colored hair. Later on, when I decided that it was more appropriate for her to have more natural coloring, I was so used to drawing her with purple hair that I kept doing it. But they are both her.

Oh, what am I saying...I'll bet that a good portion of those of you who are actually reading this knew about that already. Sometimes I wonder why I can't ever just keep it brief.

Anyway, I'm really struggling to paint a realistic face, and while I know that this isn't remotely realistic, I think it's the closest I've come. I'm working on it.

Also: A couple of months ago, I was out shopping and saw a pair of boots just like the ones Fae is wearing. I didn't get them, because I knew I would have nothing to wear with them. wtf is wrong with me. I should have gotten them anyway. oh, bitter regret.
