Heavily inspired by a picture taken of my good friends Drizella and Cinderella, this picture was done for my best friend Alicia, who had just graduated from college. She too loves the photo of Cinderella and Drizella Tremaine, so I thought I'd actually DRAW the picture for her, in the Cinderella animation style. So using a reference (Anastasia and Cinderella's hug from the third film, A Twist In Time) I hand-sketched the picture in pencil, then scanned it and actually took the time to do line art and color it correctly in Photoshop... (line-art being something I rarely do, but actually found to be enjoyable this time around.) Alicia's reaction to the image was priceless, and made all the work put into this piece worth while. I'd actually love to go back and shade this at some point, since i just did the flat color. Also for your viewing enjoyment, the picture of Cinderella and Drizella that this was based upon.

Gracious, these were done back in 2008. Regardless, they are some of my favorite pixel work, and the Drizella one has been my instant messenger icon ever since. They were drawn in MS Paint.
