The Kiss of Haruhi Suzumiya

This is my own rendition of a moment in the haruhi suzumiya manga series of Haruhi kissing Kyon. I cant tell you much more than that about the moment. It was inspired and drawn based on a black and white manga strip. All the shading, all the wood grain, and even the coloring were all done by hand using a "pen" pad. The black outlines were created using the pen tool in photoshop.

This too around 5 hours to draw, shade, and render. Thank you!
