My holiday image for the year! I actually started a picture of Farah from Tales of Eternia in her Santa costume, but I thought it'd take too long. So then I thought about doing a little SD of Farah along with Colette from Tales of Symphonia. I wound up only drawing Colette, though, but being the lazy person I am, I didn't want to deal with transparent wings. Looking at the outline of my sketch, I noticed that it sort of resembled Flonne as well as Colette, and thus did my holiday image evolve into a Disgaea fanart...

Flonne's design is really simple and cute. I added some cute little wings and halo to her outfit to make her look even more angelic, and Christmas-y.

I actually managed to do this picture all in one day, which totally amazes me, considering how slow I am at drawing... ^^;;; The coloring does look rushed, but I'm pleased with it for being a one-day picture... Like most of my pictures this year, it's colored with Prismacolor markers and pencils and a white gel pens.

Happy holidays, everyone! ^-^

Very cute as usual. I gotta say, I'm very proud that you finished this in one day. It has the same quality as most of your other pictures, too, which goes to show that you can really get good work out fast if you really concentrate. You just need...the POOOOOOOOOOOOWEEEEEEEER! And me constantly saying "Yaaar, get to work, smelly!" ...which I actually haven't said in a long time.

Yaaar, get to work, smelly! ...Oh, and Merry Christmas.

Nadia, I love this!! It reminds me of the CT character art, but the style is still distinctly yours. The colors, line, pose, shading, expression, EVERYTHING is great. I have no suggestions except KEEP DRAWING! :D

This is such a cute character! I think you've rendered her very well, and the coloring is excellent. I am particularly impressed with the shading on her hair. It's rare to see an upload from you, and I'm always glad when I do!

Yup, that's Flonne! And in a day, no less. You see what you can do when you put your mind to it? And the coloring is great, considering it took you a severe fraction of the time you usually take on most of your works! The costume is intact, the pose is excellent, and everything just flows perfectly.

Now that you know that you can do it, how about doing it a little bit more, eh? You've got distinct talent so just bring it out there! :D
