This is an author/artist collaboration between me and ChrisJS of GaiaOnline. I DID NOT DRAW THIS! *points to username* Isn't it obvious? I did write for it as you can see on my latest fan fiction deviation. I wrote the story and this is the rough page 1. Chris does't have a DeviantART account so I'm putting it up on mine.

so...this was my first idea for water...I'm sure it looks flat with no shade/color...I would need to talk to the colorist about it. I know what my execute plan would be exactly should I use pencil...*sigh* of course... but other than that...let me know what you think...oh and its only pencil now...no ink yet just so you can get an idea what I was thinking.

Up next...Lady Une!

p.s. sorry about the funny orange strip on the side...I had to tweak the contrast of the pic because it scanned pretty light and so that shadow was really accented I'll see what I can do about that...

From the story I wrote:

Vivid blue sky placidly rested above cerulean ocean waves. Gentle winds blew whispering of a long lost love. Only a shipwreck proved testimony to the tempest that had passed through this area of the Pacific but a few days ago...

Amongst the driftwood of a ruined lifeboat was the seemingly lifeless body of a young girl with long golden locks. Her hair trailed in the water as she floated face up and bobbed up and down with the ocean current...

So do you think we did a good job? I think Chris did awesome on her part. *envies drawing skills*
