"Basketball is fun!"

She is active in sport, and I like that pony tail. There's really no specific ways about how I come up with this idea. I was reading Kuroko no Basket, and this is what came to my mind lol.

Though, breathing a life into a person running isn't really an easy task. Even so, I will never give up!

"Swing the blade as if you have no.... blade."

A Kendo girl holds a certain stance for practicing.

"Alright! Two serves right away!"

A maid, a bit different than the usual maid. I like vest so yah. Vest gives a vibe of formality slightly, if not worn together with Blazer or Suit.

I want to draw a servant too, you know. And also a Gothic Lolitac. And somehow I prefer this design of maid to the usual design of maid in anime.

"The wind blows as I dance
The wind echoes as I whisper
For I beseech the God
With my purity as a maiden girl
So evil may perish of our flesh and blood eternally."

This is one of my favorite pose to gawk at every time. A shrine maiden dances in the midst of holy ceremony.

I'd like to watch the real live performance one day. Btw, the poem is by me, basing on nothing. So please don't mind it too much ^-^"

"简单清除头脑不必要的东西"
"Simplicity clears the mind over unnecessary things."

A Chinese girl shows off her Kungfu skill. Actually, Kungfu is a general term. Behind the general word, there are very many styles. I don't know which one is most used nowadays. But yah, Martial arts never cease to amaze me, especially the sparring between masters.

"Unleash your fist stronger!"

A karate girl wants to practice by punching three hard and stiff bricks. Then, want to know what happens next? She crushed it into pieces, nice and neat.

I remember there was a TV show about Guiness record of a karate man had successfully crushed a lot of bricks in limited time, creating a new record. Well, I don't really suppose myself believe it at that time lol.

"I like smashing."

A girl volleyball player is about to serve the ball into the enemy's territory. It's kind of hard to make a person flying look alive. But dang, I managed to finish the shading and am quite satisfied of the result despite being imperfect.

I just need more practice, really.

"There can never be better than dancing beautifully."

I know the pose is a bit off than the usual, but it's already been made into lineart so I'll let this be. I'm just kind of impressed that those dancers are really flexible, after doing some research about dancers.

There are many types of dancers, following such as Break dancer, Ballet dancer, Belly dancer, and etc. Of course it is obvious that there are many types which is why I'm really interested in drawing them later.

Err.... I honestly don't know why I have this urge to draw dances.

"I will wait for my prince, even if I have to stand all day."

I assume this is the most difficult design as I have to locate shade in every fold. It seems I still need more practice....

I must keep practicing.

I was thinking about marriage while surfing Internet, and this was what comes to my mind after having visited Google for references.

Naah, I'd rather not to answer why I was thinking about marriage. It's way too soon....

Anyway, I should keep practicing.

--------------------

Aaah, finally, I'm able to finish these nine drawings all by using free time wisely. Now that holiday has ended, and I will have to go back to University again. Maybe I won't be here as much as how I did in the past, but I will try my best to finish the remaining. Yes, there's actually still more of them.

Anyway, this all happened because of your support, and I will surely thank you by becoming an official artist one day. I will never give up in reaching my dream.
