When Shoe Laces Snap

Description

When shoe laces snap! It rarely happens, but don't you hate it when it does? :XD:

Anyways, I haven't uploaded anything in a while, so I figured I'd better do something, even though I've been preoccupied with non-art stuff. I wanted to experiment more with the moé style, and I think I'm getting closer to a more solid look and personal stylization that fits me. I have to admit, though, cel shading is proving harder for me than I thought it would be, and for that reason, this took longer for me to color than it should have. It was cumbersome. This is because I think of applying colors like a painter (value, saturation, blending, dabbing, strokes, etc.) so it was frustrating to flip my skill set to make this work. To be honest, I don't like coloring this way, and I'd much rather just paint than cel shade....I just need to be patient so I can get proficient with this color method, since it IS easier, faster, and good for quicky picture like this...which I need to do more of in general. :XD:

This picture you've done of such a character looks very nice and cute, and I happen to be a real sucker for girls in long white socks as well. ;)
