Happy belated birthday Erika

After looking through Lucky Star scans in my folders and taking a good look at this one, I decided it was perfect as Erika's b-day present. I originally wanted to make her a Syaoran vector but I've been sooo lazy so...sorry ^_^'
I got my inspiration from those sleepovers we used to do at each other's houses. Since Kagami reminds me so much of myself and since you like Tsukasa I thought it'd be perfect, so I removed Miyuki and Konata from the scene.
Vectored Kagami and Tsukasa, which was fun to do (like other LS scans^^) I loved how they changed hairstyles in one ep. Thin lines again, but I think they fit LS style so np this time ^^
I added more shadows and highlights on their hair that weren't on the original img. You guys know I always do this, and this vector wasn't exception.
Then I got scared when I looked at the background >.< Since Tsukasa wasn't originally on that side, there were a lot of new things that were going to be visible. Not only that, but I knew a vectored bg wouldn't look good so I'd have to do some painting.
So first, perspective. For me at least, it's a must when working on bgs. My painting skills suck so there was a time when I stared and stared at the whole work before gaining courage to continue. Painted the sheets, some wood too, the curtains, window/sky, then I got lazy to paint more wood on the desk so I played around with filters. Then added a pattern to the walls and worked on shadows/lights, which is always what I like to do best on a bg. Added some noise to the floor too to make it less plain.
The biggest problem is that it was looking too empty and I was scared of adding more things since it could end up too busy. I played around with colors to see if I could fix the problem, but no.
So I decided to add some pictures in the wall, some books and pencil case. Something was still missing...
The whole "blank" space between the girls was bugging me (and it still is) so I added a pillow (which looks ugly btw). I still wasn't satisfied, but I didn't want to put so many things. In the end, I added that little LS kitty on the bed, vectored from a screenshot. It doesn't have anything to do with the problem I mentioned but I think it worked out well..kinda. He's so cute
