Forgive me for the flaws in this one because i'm kinda rushing. :x but it's supposed to be a quick, simple, modest piece...emphasis on the "quick" part.

i vectored lacus from a magazine spread scan (credit: APA) and added extra shading to her hair, skin, dress, and cape, as well as gradients to focus the lighting more on her hands. after the success with the light-halo-thing in my "Candlelight" wall, i thought i'd create something similar here but in color. it didn't turn out perfectly: some colors, notably green, don't show in a lot of places and the colors might not be saturated enough for some people's tastes. as for the glitter, it was done with the round brush. i know, more glowy magical stuff would have helped. ^^;

guess i'm walling widescreen from now on. o__o
