Description
Yeeeah, did this silly thing again. Completely by accident, I swear. I was just doodling and...yeah.
The character pictured is named Rila. She's a 14/15(ish) year old mage living in a fantasy world I created with my neighbor back in middle school, back when we were first both just starting to get into manga. She wrote the story and I drew it, and back in the day we thought this was pretty awesome. We got about four chapters into the thing before giving up. Since then she's turned the project into a novel, and I've based several characters off of background characters I created for this project. So it's affected both of us.
The story was centered around a social conflict between those with magical ability and those without, with a princess (Celeste) of the regular humans and this lovely mage-in-training Rila as the primary protagonists. Rila was always getting lost, which was how she met Celeste in the first place. It was EPIC shojo style, and really overly simplified with lots of chibi because my drawing skills at the time were pretty pathetic.
I actually found all of my concept work from back then in a folder recently when I was clearing out my closet. Looking back on the drawings... Not as fabulous as I thought.
So I thought it'd be a fun exercise to take some of the pages that I liked and redo them in my current style, which--of course--meant revamping the main character. I'm also excited because I'll get to draw Qui again. I love that kid. So you'll see a bit more of this project before I stuff it into a drawer and try not to think about it for the rest of my life.
...Yeah. We don't talk about my middle school art. Now you know why.

Gotta do this meme sometime.
(It's nice to know I'm not the only one who sucks at drawing at my age. XD)
