This picture wasn't popular at SMASH.

I had a LOT of horrified people ask what I did to the Lucky Star girls. One guy visibly shuddered when viewing this, and I got a LOT of 'ew's. I guess translating chibi characters into full-on DC-style girls is a no-go at cons.

But hey.

I had a LOT of fun doing this one, and that's what's important. I am particularly satisfied with Konata's face.
So I might as well post it.

I think it's a pretty neat interpretation of the 4 girls :) ! Some of those Con Goers need to lighten up :XD: .

Personally, I prefer THIS to how they..."normally"...look.

I think the only real "issue" I have is with Konata's really uber manly chin and jaw-structure. And the details in and around the mouth do make me a little uncomfortable for some reason. I read once that emphasizing every individual tooth vs. two white slabs makes a character look older, which might be in conflict with the rest of the high-school-age character design.

But hey, at least they don't all look like they're 8 years old here.

Japan. :iconohuplz:

i cannot remember if i mentioned that fanboys are obsessed with keeping the franchise intact and they don't like the inguinity and originality in this pic as it makes the chibi's lose their cuteniss and lolicon-ness and etc.

anyway AMAZING picture...

Why were they going ew? They actually look attractive. I guess if they don't look like they're lolis, no one wants to see it....

No offense intended, but Kotona (is that her name?) scares me for some reason. I rather like seeing the other three like that; it makes sense physically. But Kotona... o__e" And I'm still wondering why so many anime characters have a curl of hair sticking up like that, other than to add something of interest to their design. Also, the one on the far left. There's a bit of a too-strong purple glow(?) on her legs, imo. ^^; I'll ignore the feet; those are buttheads to draw in the first place. But other than that, good job overall! I really do love the colors and such; it's obvious that you did put a good amount of effort into this. ^__^

I love this! Boo to the congoers that 'ew'd it, shame on them. :/ They seriously need to have a more open mind.
The only thing I'm not too keen on is Konata's mouth; I think it's just a little too wide (but maybe that's just me. >.<) but other than that I love the style! =)

ilu foarevaaaar.

It is a little strange seeing them in a more realistic style at first. However, your work really shows. Konata's ahoge does look a little odd in a non-chibi style...
