satisfied, I guess, with the work I do. On that last picture I did, I couldn't draw Glacial Buttercup's eyes
at all. I was trying to give them at least a passing resemblance to how Kaoru's eyes looked in PPGZ, but around four times or so I had to erase them and start over. Finally I got fed up enough to just draw them shut. And none of that goes into the trouble I was having drawing her customized uniform. Sailor Zeta's custom Senshi uniform was easier, since I already had something to go by.
On my previous request for Konoko concerning Callista's hybrid form, I'd made repeated efforts to try and draw her the way I'd envisioned, and it just never looked
right. The eyes, the shape of the ears and face especially. In retrospect it never occurred to me to try adding Tomo's original hairstyle; that made it look much better.
The artwork I'd tried doing for Ellen in the past was giving me fits, too. I had difficulty mixing the cuteness of youth with her super-calm nature, and whenever I tried to she just kept looking older than she really was. Now that she's nearing high school age in-universe I doubt it'll be much of an issue, and even if it does, Konoko's art gives me something to work with.))
