Crimson Heights: Awakening of the Heart

Yeah, totally stole the title from Nika's story, but hey, I like it : P

SO, this took. God, how long? It began as a spar between Shendon and myself to see who was the bigger fan of a story created and developed by a friend of mine, Nika. She's a better artist than I am all around, and more creative, so go check out her account and watch her D< DO IT OR THE KITTEN GETS IT.

Anyway, the contest began on Wednesday, and since then I've been rushing to get this thing done. It took forever!

So, the Characters are: Vega (Left) Availion (Middle) Cascadia (Right). Cascadia is a popular Character from the series and is the second main Character; she's a Mercenary from a Nation known as Mizura, and can manipulate Water. Then there's Availion, the Goddess of Wind, who is my ALL TIME FAVORITE CHARACTER <3 -glomps- And Vega, the villian of the whole thing. Yeah, I rushed for an outfit for him, and I still think I could have done better = =' Oh well. -sigh-

My friend gave me a few pointers on the CGing work while I was at her place using a special program. Thanks to her, Saiyu!~ Check out her account as well.
