I was planning to leave this one until April but you guys motivated me to finish it early The biggest challenge was possibly drawing the patterns on her clothes. That was really time consuming.

This drawing was my submission for Design 2011 MapleCalendar Event and the result was...well you know the rest. *cries* But then I don't blame them for not liking this. I ran out of time after drawing the character so I just took a screenshot of Rien and used autopaint for the background. It was my first event submission so I was rather hopeful but I guess they didn't like it because I didn't put enough effort into it. However for this one I did paint the background...but on top of the screenshot(shame on me OTL)
...and before anyone mentions this...yeah I don't know what the heck I was thinking when I was drawing those ribbons >_> they really are too long aren't they? Anyways I hope you like it. If you have any questions leave a comment or PM me.

I would be happy to take requests but not at the moment. Maybe I would during summer break.

Do you have a deviantart account, by the way? @_@[/quote]

Thank you
And no I don't have a DA account yet but I'm planning to make one in the future. I don't really have much artwork to post right now anyways.

@Matrix246
[i]That[/i] is fat to you? What are you talking about? She's not even close to being fat. Well at least to me she isn't. You should take a look at the official Maplestory drawing of Lilin. She's just a minor who has a round face! XD

Also that's not really considered as a [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/MapleStory-Guide-Constructive-criticism-Giving-and-receiving-351.html]constructive criticism[/url] but thanks for your effort anyways.

Constructive criticism: You made her look too short and fat.

This is absolutely amazing. You are one of the most talented artists I have ever seen on Basil, and I've been around for some time.

[quote=korotoksuke]How about using GIMP as a relative to Corel Painter? Dunno how well that would turn out but just saying a suggestion, I love Corel Painter though hehe[/quote]

I have GIMP on my desktop computer but for some reason it takes minimum 5 minutes to load(unlike photoshop which it takes less than 10 seconds). I'm really hoping to get Painter fixed. It really looks like an awesome program but what's the use if it won't even load? TT_TT

[quote=lilcellion]i liked the picture, i just have 2 concerns
where's her arm?
and why does she look like a baby o_o[/quote]

1. She does have arms read my comment above. I had to lower the quality to fit the file size so the colour around her sleeves got messed up a little XD

2. I always imagined her to be a girl around age 13 so making her look young was intentional. Does she really look like a baby? My sister told me she looks really old like 20 or something...=_=

[quote=shivam101]Amazingg, how did nexon reject this?[/quote]

It's most likely because they're not into this style. According to my observation, Nexon prefers chibis unlike this.
