Syaoran-kun!
I like Fai! He’s funny, and so very nice. I’m not sure how Link got in there, but I think he also started out as Fai.
And that’s about all I have to say about that. -_- I need to watch Tsubasa again.

Howl and Sophie dancing
Waltzing through the air
Today’s picture is of Howl and Sophie from Howl’s Moving Castle. I think this picture came out well; it feels more than two-dimensional. Of course, his face is completely off.
Touya
I love the sword that he keeps nowhere.
Okay! This is Touya, drawn with the new expertise drawn from being given a manga-drawing book and Tsubasa Ch. Vol. 1 at the same time. Yay! His head came out quite well. The rest of him could need work, though the cloak is better than usual.
Fai + Staff
Fai + staff = a graceful pounding
Fai! …not much else to say here, except this would be in a world where kimono-like clothes are acceptable (i.e. the world in the “weekend movie” thing?).
Chuji and Nekoia
Demons with strange hair
The guy on the left is from Tsubasa Chronicle Episode thirty-something, and he’s pretty cool despite me not having an actual reference when drawing. Here is a reference I would like to have used for the hair.
The girl is another OC (original character?) to be his girlfriend. She is a demon priestess (they’re both demons) and together they stand united against evilness. Or something. Their legs are too short. The sword is a little nifty. His hair needs to be longer. Her hair is purply with a blue kimono, or the other way around. I’m not sure.
Tsubasa Couples
My dear love… we are degenerating scribbles, and thus I adore you
Ummm? Tsubasa pairings! I drew Touya first, because he is my favourite character. The girl with him is some random desert girl whose name was perfect one night but I can’t remember it now – something like Sariko. Except it didn’t begin with an ‘s’. So Touya is cool, though his ‘girlfriend’ has a pretty small head. Then I drew Fai and Chi, because they are very sweet. As you can see I abandoned the anime-style hair. Then I did Syaoran and Sakura. >_< Then I did Kurogane and Tomoyo, and I didn’t have a reference for Tomoyo, and I don’t care for drawing Kurogane like an artist because by then I was bored, so they came out very poorly. Sorry.
Syaoran
Disembodied heads
Syaoran-kun! Well, his head in a variety of expressions, anyway. I like ‘demo’ the best. And the bottom determined one. The top one isn’t too great. The ‘Fai-san!’ one is from Outo, in case you didn’t know! It’s a funny one. ‘Demo’ is actually probably the sloppiest, but it’s the, well, cutest, I guess.
Fai and Touya
Back to back, although complete strangers to each other
My two favourite characters of Tsubasa Chronicle are Fai and Touya. Touya’s hair is completely terrible. I’m not sure what the kanji say anymore. I think ‘challenge’. The little Touya is better. And these guys would never have met in canon, so I guess I just stuck them together. Man, I like Touya’s big sword. It has no detail here, though.
Fai poses for the camera
He usually likes dodging, but it’s fun to knock out multiple targets, too.
Colby Purcell once declared herself to be “a screaming fangirl for Fai!” I agree. Fai rules. I guess by this time I had watched up to the episode in which there is a temple floating in the sky with a narrow path up to it and bad guys come out of portals and attack them. Fai, forgoing his magic, does a whole bunch of really cool acrobatics fighting them off. He pretends to be lazy, but he’s really cool to watch. This picture is terrible, especially the bad guys (blobs, as usual) but it’s my first Tsubasa fanart…
And another thank you to Colby for providing the link to the YouTube video of Episode 1 and introducing me to YouTube and Tsubasa at one stroke. You can’t find it on there any more… copyright issues. I bought the DVD, as I think I said once. Not the pinnacle of excellence, but it’s Tsubasa, and that’s enough.
Howl and Sophie
Don’t worry, darling, I’m here
Ugly picture… somehow, I lost all sense of realism here, and it came out looking like… well, really bad. Anyway, I got Howl’s Moving Castle, I guess for my birthday, and it quickly became my favourite Miyazaki movie, especially since it’s his only movie with any sort of overt romance. Plenty of others – Whisper of the Heart, The Cat Returns, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, etc – hint at it, especially WotH, but HMC is the sweetest. And it’s full of drama.
