CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Congrats, Nalani! Great coloring! ^__^

Congratulations, Nalani. I like the inclusion of scenic flashbacks to Sephiroth's dark past. It gives a good context for the whole scene.

Good job.

Congratulation from me too

I love the picture

The icons in the backwall is great!

btw. Amazing Grace correspond very well with the picture - you did great there

Yay ^^ Good job :] Did you do those stained glass windows from scratch??

Great job on the pic ^_~

I think all participants did a GREAT job. I highly encourage everyone to keep participating and get those creative juices kicking in! Congrats, Nalani. ^^

Wow! No way! I won?!
Yay. cool.
Thanks everybody!!
*happy dance* wow. I'm still in disbelief. XD

And yeah. the stain glass windows are from scratch. XD I just drew it and colored it. XD I'm suprised at how it came out. Usually ... my art sux. XD

Congratulations on a great entry!

congratulations!! and that was a great idea too! (i once thought about how it would be, if Sephiroth could be saved... but i would have never put it together in such a great illustration!!) IT'S FABULOUS!! you absolutely deserve it.

Congrats! Nice work!

Nicely done. Although, you kinda stole my subject. I was going to draw a Sephiroth-looking character sitting on a stool with a flaming Masamune in his hands. All done in pencil, though. No color. You did a great job with the environment and coloring. Awesome job!

Great job! Very good pic and putting the thought into picture form. This is the type of grace God has that even (if he were real) someone like Sepiroth can et saved if they truly repent and turn to Him! Awesome job! ^_^

^__^ Thanks! You shouldn't let my pic stop you from doing yours, though. From your description is sounded like it would have been pretty cool looking. It doesn't sound similar to my pic either. XD More like a completely different theme. I'd like to see it though. ]Great job! Very good pic and putting the thought into picture form.

Yeah yeah! That is exactly what I was thinking when I did this pic. I'm glad I was able to portay that.

WOW!

That is absolutely fantastic - the drawing style speaks loads of experience and the picture itself conveys a deeper message that one would not notice until they looked closely. Very good job!

Bravo! Bravo! *applauds*

lol. Loads of experience, huh? : I wish. ^^;; I'm glad it looks that way, though. I'm fully self taught. And learn from good accidents. XD lol. I actually drew 5 different versions of this pic before I finally got it right. When I did this one I was like W00t!!! I did it!!
And for the coloring, I kinda studied how the really good artist CG their art and then I tried experiementing.
Its all living and learning.

*shouts loud to everyone* See new artists! Keep drawing and never be discouraged!!! It pays off!!

I thinks pics with a lot of meaning behind it are excellent pictures even if everything is drawn in stick firgures. There is an impact that stays with you longer.

.... well thats my .... really long 2 cents. XD

Congratulations, Nalani!!! ^_^ Great picture. I really liked how you did the stained glass windows.

I must applaude the essential idea of the picture itself, and I wonder why I have neglected to do so until now. Everyone (and I paint with a broad brush) wants Sephiroth as a good guy, but how many people also want him Christian?

Id rather have Sephiroth destroy the world then have him save it

You do realize you're on the world, correct? Are you interested in dying or something?

LOL!!
Thats why it is wise to think before speaking. Or typing.

Yay. But thanks, UC Pseudonym!
I was inspired by your beautiful icon. *_*
Bet you didn't know that.
lol. well, actually ... it was a piece a many inspirations.

what ever it was you did great!!!:dance:

Congrats! Love the picture! Love the coloring! Love the stainglass windows in the backround! Love everything about it! Good job Nalani
