"Carrying steel blades in our hands, we sing a song of victory, bearing the wings of freedom upon our backs
Clenching our resolve to our hearts, we tear through the spiral of foolishness
Dancing through azure-
Wings of Freedom!"
Old work from August 2013. The lines were drawn in pencil, scanned into Photoshop, had the values adjusted, and simply touched up. Colour was shaded completely in greyscale then had a gradient map applied to it!

Thank you c:
I was experimenting with different things back when I drew this and I learned that this style is very time consuming. The lines have to be close to perfect before being scanned or it'll take forever to correct; the greyscale + gradient map technique is pretty straightforward though and actually took less time than the lines!
