DONE!!

[luco]

It's finally done!!! And you guys get the un-watermarked version, because I love you ^___^





As for everything else that was discussed earlier....I've been making plans and checking into different ideas. I'm taking all of your advice into consideration and I thank you...very much, for all the support.

I'm no longer panicking, which is a very good thing.

Yummy...

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

So it turned out good in the end huh?

[emeraldus.livejournal.com]

Very nice! The detail is amazing.

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I'm just happy it's done ^___^; It drove me insane. . .

[ahja-reyn.livejournal.com]

This has nothing to do with this picture (which is okay, cuz I commented on it at the community :D), but I think you should do one of your plushie comics with the plushies commenting on the new Ultimate Adventure outfits (nods)

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm....I think I could work something out. . .

[ahja-reyn.livejournal.com]

YaY!

[mettathron.livejournal.com]

I stand by my initial reaction: GUH. MELT. Damn, but you've got a good grip on coloring. Seriously. Feel the waves of envy.

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Hey! Feel the waves of envy from me! I've started writing again and I'm embarrassed by it when I compare myself to you ;___;

[regicidaldwarf.livejournal.com]

Wow! The coloring on this is simply gorgeous - the waves flow and actually look like water, the clouds look like clouds, and the richness of the colors is just stunning. The lighting is amazing too, it really looks like sunset. I'm just stunned by how well this turned out. (Not stunned by your abilities though. ^_~)

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

So am I. Half way there I was ready to give up, but I'm very glad I didn't ^____^

:)

[onikotsu.livejournal.com]

meflefalken. Whoa this is so geousgous I'm drolling. It's so beautiful I love the glow that comes from someplaces a alot. SQEEEEEEEEEEE!

I'm glad your not panicking anymore and are working on a way to get free. I'm on AIM if you want to talk.

Re: :)

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Yup! I've relaxed and am actually thinking things through now. Thanks for chatting with me last night.

Re: :)

[onikotsu.livejournal.com]

It's no problem if it makes you feel better.

[dragonsong12.livejournal.com]

I gotta know, how do you do your coloring? Do you have a tutorial or anything posted somewheres? i LOVE this kind of coloring, bhut can never seem to puzzle it out myself through trial and error...

...though maybe that's for the better. IT'S SOMETHING I MUST COME TO MYSELF...but I'm lazy XD

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmm, I've been asked to do tutorials before...maybe I should actually sit down and try to do one.

If I end up being to lazy though, I'll just do my best to explain it ^^;

[dragonsong12.livejournal.com]

You replied to EVERYONE! You are so cool. XD (I never remember to reply until weeks later when it is moot)

That would be totally awesome, but don't feel you need to do it on my (or anyone else's really) account. I really should figure some of this stuff out for myself. ^_^; But tips and tricks would be totally awesome!

*falls to knees* TEACH ME MASTER! XD

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I try to reply to everyone when I can ^___^ And tips and tricks i could do...I'm working on something special right now, but as soon as I'm done, i'll do a post on art tips!

*loves*

[devlinnreiko.livejournal.com]

Thats so amazing. Simply gorgeous. All that stress definately paid off. Great job. I seriously love the final product and I enjoyed seeing the process of this. It makes me appreciate it as art so much more. ^______^

((Glad that you've thought of plans etc. and that you're not panicking. ^_____^ ))

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I always enjoy seeing pieces done step by step, so I'm glad I was able to share that with you guys ^_____^

And yes, the panicking stage seems to have ended...for now at least >_>;

[inferni-spei.livejournal.com]

God, that's just yummy...

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Isn't it?

[lissibith.livejournal.com]

Superb. It really has that ethereal just-before-the-sun-disappears glowy feel to the highlighting. Love it :)

Ah, and as for the other... glad to hear plans are in motion. Your life is your life. To live it in as much happiness as possible is the only way to honor that gift. Best of luck

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

That glow was hard to create and then keep constant through out the whole pic X__x I'm so glad this one is done ^^;

And yes, I'm slowly learning that i am indeed in control of my own life.

[dethorats]

Okay, firstly discounting (and damn is that hard to do) the awesome hotness of Ace and Sanji, the waves...Oh My God, the waves...I love the lighting effect on them. They're gorgeous and I don't even want to think about how much effort that took. Heck, the lighting overall is masterfull, great use of glow and shadow that really adds a whole other dimension to this. And then...god the boys look amazing. I really like how you color the brassy metal accents. It looks like it should color-wise. Ace's freckles still come near to killing me.

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I don't want to remember how much work went into those damn waves, but I'm very glad people really like them ^___^ make me willing to paint them again for other pictures.

And yeah, the boys still make me grin when I look at them and feel just a little but proud that I made them look like that.

[tripoverhercats.livejournal.com]

Ooh.

Yum.

*applauds*

I adore Sanji's attire - all the belts and buclkes and metal bits.

The light work on the clouds, the water and the boys...

So glad you kept on this, it is much appreciated by those of us who can well... only appreciate!

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

*grins*

And I'm very glad you guys appreciate it, since without that, I wouldn't have the heart to draw and finish half the things I do. So thank you for that.

[stephaniecmc.livejournal.com]

*looks at pic*
*eyes bulge*
*faints*
*pants runs off to celebrate*

I honestly swear...I'm gonna go hunt down Oda-sensei and make him hand One Piece over to you... And maybe add in several homes around the world, like one in Japan, one in Canada, one in China, one in Italy, one in Malaysia (so I can stalk you)

*big doofusy grin for the day* ->
*______________________________________________*

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't know what to do with One Piece if I got it, so I'm simply content to play with it ^____^

But all those homes do sound nice. . . . .

[imagines.livejournal.com]

Things I like:
- hand on the hat-strap. Reminds me of TIES. XD
- hand on the neck.
- hand on the leg.
- ARM MUSCLES HOMG.
- the sky.
- the water. THAT IS SOME KICKASS WATER. o_____o I did a double-take because I swore it was a photo.

In summary: SO PRETTY. ♥♥

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

TIE LOVE!!!!!

And I am damn proud of that water, so reactions like that please me greatly ^____^

::swallows hard::

I rarely get the urge to wander in One Piece fandom, but sometimes it inexplicably hits me. And it's a rare enough urge that I really don't want to join onepieceyaoi, and so had to wander over here so I could fawn over this.

I'm glad I did get the urge before this got buried past months of stuff. It's fucking hot, if you'll forgive my swearing. The details you bothered putting into the boys and the environment are impressive. The light in the clouds, and the shading on the boys in relation. Lovely.

Then there's the goddamn pose! It's...it's...well, nosebleed-worthy. Legs-around-the-waist has always been something of a weakness for me, and when it's Sanji's legs doing the wrapping, the only thing I can really ever say is GUH. Because Sanji's legs are special things. And they look so good here.

Gorgeous, simply gorgeous.

[luco-millian.livejournal.com]

Sanji's legs are indeed a very special thing, because they are basically weapons and so there is a lot of trust involved when those legs are active. It's one of the reasons I enjoy working with him.

And I haven't done a completed picture in a long time and I really wanted to do one that felt like more then just fan-service and I hope I achieved that with this piece...

I'm also very glad you got a chance to see it ^___^

[prettyarbitrary.livejournal.com]

Ohhhhhhh, that's beautiful.

[weenergord.livejournal.com]

The waves. The sunset. Sanjis shirt sleeve. The shine/glow on the curves of the leather. The pelvis riding.

That is SO gorgeous. Hawt. And Zoro is gonna be SO jealous. XD
