This is pretty old, twelveth Lacus wallpaper I've done but in the end, I still love this wallpaper to death. I wanted to capture the mysterious and faith mood especially since I think it best describes Lacus. Walking on a road in a plain of darkness but was always walking towards the light because it is the light that guides one (thus the creation of words). I found shading this wallpaper was pretty hard since I had to make sure that the light will be hitting reasonable areas and casting hard shadows. Of course I fixed some areas (especially her head) where the light should be softer. That's about it for this wallpaper aside my creativity actually took over for once so it's improvement in my opnion XD *usually just does... stuff*

Hope you'll all enjoy as I'm sure many have seen this (alot I should add) at Minitokyo and Clyne Faction. ^^;; Enjoy!
