Description
I'm still trying to improve my coloring but mostly my speed. I tend to focus way to much on detail but I'm slowly getting better at not spending hours on parts that doesn't need that much detail. I should have gone to bed hours ago but i wanted to finish this one. I don't draw Nani that often and i wasn't that happy with the latest one i did of her. Enjoy!Related content

Oh wow, this is stunning. She's almost perfectly on-model and the subtle shading is rediculously awesome. The color selection on the background is wonderful as is the detailing in the clouds and water, specificially the highlights on the water.
The anatomy is amazing, not a lot of people can paint realistic muscle mass, but you nailed it, especially on the shoulder of the arm she has raised over her head.
The only actual issue is her belly button. Simply that it's too far over to her left. It should follow the shape of her body more.
But really, this is gorgeous, it makes me want to try to draw her.

I am Kyuubi16. I have to say I'm amazed at this pic. I've been requesting quite a bit of art for permission use as cover images.
While a few have said no, quite a few have said yes and I'm hoping you would be one of those ones. You see, I base stories off the images or use the images to enhance stories. Then I credit the source authors in summaries, often placing a link to their gallery when I load the stuff on Your Fanfiction.
Your Fanfiction is a new fanfiction site for the fans that allows MA fics and a deeper search engine. I'm hoping to encourage a new breed of good fanfiction and good/rare crossover couples in the future and gain more popularity for it.
Mainly because I'm trying to try new styles and stuff. Art like this helps inspire, enrich how the story is viewed and well, it inspires me to write. All and all I hope you do allow me to use this piece.
Also if you have to know anyone who wouldn't mind doing free requests I would like to know. I would to find someone who has a fondness for Naruto crossovers and wouldn't mind doing images based off scenes from my stories. Or if not Crossovers, just images for any series or characters because there is such few art for a lot of great characters.

Great pic. Nani, the sky, basically everything in this picture is amazing. It looks like either a portrait or a watercolor background from the movie.

Nicely done! I wouldn't have guessed you were trying to do this faster than usual if you hadn't said so - this is definitely one to be proud of! (Faves and prepares to recommend it around)

OH MY GOSH! Thank you so very much for drawing a portait of Nani! She is one of my favorite Disney characters that you rarely ever see and I am so thrilled that ou drew her, it is beautiful-I love the lighting on the water and the glow on her torso and legs. It is beautiful and a wonderful tribute to this amazing girl, thanks so much and if possible I would love it so very much if you drew her some more-actually my actual wish would be for you to draw her and David together but that's just wishful thinking Thanks so much and you are improving so much!

Lol I feel the same about details!! Still, it's a great picture! Comparing with mine, I still like to use up too much time with coloring... it's pretty tough.

What a lovely piece! It really is refreshing to see all sorts of characters from you, and this one is no exception!
I love to see that you're trying to explore your color palette... I'm trying to do the exact same right now, so I can understand how frightening it is to use "bold" colors! I really do like this, you can actually tell that it is sunset and the calming, warm colors all seem to fit together. My only suggestion is that you perhaps use even more contrast in colors so as to make it even more apparent. Environmental colors always help to tie in the character with the background, and I can tell that you've tried to incorporate that! Also, it might just be my eye, but Nani's bellybutton seems to be in an odd position, as though it's leaning more to one side than the other. I know she's turning her body, but the sternum and the position of the bellybutton don't quite match up. Putting it a little lower and more toward the viewer's left-hand side would fix that up!
The clouds and the reflective sea are just gorgeous! It actually feels as though they are real, and the golden sea is a very nice touch! The transition between colors in the sky look simply amazing, and the clouds are ever-so-fluffy and wispy! Overall, this is a very wonderful piece, and I'm looking forward to your future pieces, as always!

...but at least you did do a good job on the wonderful scene. Nothing a break from managing a busy family of a sister, and a pack of oddball aliens, could fix though :3 Excellent job! :3
