Petrus92For this week’s picture I am continuing a LAMA gear picture with another LAMA picture. In any case, this time the dive picture is a bit special. First, I decided to try out a new artist for drawing LAMA gear. This artist is IanDimas, he is an amazing artist who has an unique cartoony art style. I especially love how dynamic he draws expressions and poses, it really make his pictures feel alive and impactful. His colouring style is also vibrant and lively, fits the cartoony style perfectly. I highly recommend to check his gallery and commission him if you’re interested in his impressive work. In order to diversify the cast of characters I have featured in LAMA gear I decided to have a character from a different franchise to have a spotlight. As such I decided to give Tomoyo from Cardcaptor Sakura a go, I have already mentioned in the earlier picture of her that I drew that she is my favourite character from the series mostly for her yuri shenanigans. Plus she is so adorable with Sakura, I always love how cheerful and supportive she is ^^. Tomoyo also has a beautiful singing voice, so beautiful in fact that she used it to lure one of the Clow Cards for Sakura to capture it. Gotta love normal skills came handy in confronting magical beings ^^
Inspired by that episode I had a conversation with my good pal TheSakuraSamurai who is a big Cardcaptor fan (although you can tell that from the name alone ^^). After a fruitful exchange of ideas we came up with a scenario that fit Tomoyo perfectly. As you can see in the picture, Tomoyo is practicing her singing during her LAMA dive in an aquarium. Shortly after Tomoyo starts singing fishes and other underwater creatures gather up to listen her voice in the Disney princess style. They surely are amazed by this sight most wonderful as both her voice is angelic alongside her being pretty like a true princess. That is fitting since she the heir of a rich family and is treated as a classic Ojou-sama. Certainly a princess worthy of a singing scene like this, and one of my favourite princesses to have in LAMA gear alongside L’Arachel ^^
The colouring process was straightforward since I’ve coloured a plenty of LAMA pictures already and IanDimas did a great work with the lineart. It was also refreshing to colour an aquarium background and a more standard wetsuit this time, this kind of school wetsuit fits Tomoyo surprisingly well. Nothing else to really comment about the process, big thanks for both IanDimas for doing amazing work in drawing this lineart and TheSakuraSamurai for helping me to come up with the idea for this picture. Please check their galleries for some exquisite artwork ^^
Hopefully you all like the picture!
