The lineart was done by the sublime =Michelle84 and is actly pencil (:O) Thanks so much for letting me colour! Had to much fun (and hand ache) with this! :heart: Though not allll the lineart was done by her... ;) im hoping you didn't notice when looking at the picture (as was my aim) but the character on the far rights lineart was done by me! I added my anime character Fluke to the mix, trying to make it in the style of the others, I think I did okay, she looks slightly different but the colours bring them all together (I hope) XD Did you notice? I hope you don't mind Michelle ^^;

Okay guys, if you didn't already know each of the people are diffetrent peoples characters :D From left to right:

Vanilla © !showkaizer
Iris © =Michelle84
Lotus © *BlackLotusPro
Lilac © =frozenlilacs
Fluke © *DestinyBlue ~me!

You may think my characters name looks a bit odd as it is the only no non flower name, but fear not! By scary coincidence she has a flower as her middle name; Rose, awwwww. Fluke Rose Luma-Nigh in all :D It makes sence really XD

At first I was going to colour the characters in exclusivley indian colours, like brights reds and greens and things, but it looked a bit uninteresting so I decided to use the main colour from their original designes on their outfits in this picture :DThe result is a but eclectic, but I really like it and hope it makes the characters personalities come throught more and makes them more recognizable ^-^ I also gave them henna! I hope no one minds, its the safe brown type so it wont hurt your characters ;) hehe, I just thought it was a nice little touch with them being in india and all ^^

30 hours.
This was alllll done in OpenCanvas with no textures or special brushes :P That fire was evil to do >-> im still not 100% happy with it.

With this picture I wanted to do two things: to have the initial *wow* impact (hoppefully achieved by the fire but only made possible by the superb lines) and also to get people looking at the detail and finding new things each time they look.

Wow! What else can be said? I sure you have already heard it all. What I can say is that I have been sitting here for more than 10 minutes just watching and loving it. I love the background fire; it wouldn't have the same impact without it. India has many beautiful women; you did them justice.

You have achieved everything you had tried for. I had the "wow" impact, and I see something new every time I look. I couldn't tell you added your own character to the original line art, and all the colors go well. I agree that henna made it even better.
Thank you so much for presenting me with this amazing picture and amazing artists *bows*
