OH WOW...what a busy picture, wouldn't you say!? Anyway, this is the Sohma family of "Fruits Basket". ^^

Personal Commentary on each Character:
Kisa the Tiger: Hmm...she was kinda hard to draw, surprisingly. O.o I love Kisa! She's SO adorable! Especially how she followed Tohru around when she was doing the laundry in a certain episode! :love:
Kagura the Boar: Haha...hyperactive girl and very amusing to watch (LOL) She was easy to draw, probably because of her resemblance of Tohru. (I find Tohru easy to draw)
Rin the Horse: Unfortunately she isn't even IN the anime at all...*pouts* She's very beautiful, in my opinion and mysterious....hmm...wonders. Oh, and sorry if the horse animal that corresponds with her doesn't look like the horse she transforms into. I didn't know how she's supposed to look like when she's a horse when drawing this, so for the horse I used a picture of a horse I found in this picture dictionary. Gah! This version's less cute! (I just found out how the horse looks like today!)
Hiro the Sheep: Don't know that much about him. As for drawing him, it was okay. Not a pain to draw though not exactly that easy. He's very cute :aww:
Yuki the Rat: He's the first person I drew. Surprisingly, it resembles him a little despite my refrence-less situation. It's because I drew him so well, I was motivated to continue with the rest of the Sohma family! I had trouble with his hair color. It's like...greyish-purple. O.o I tried mixing grey and purple and I got this. I hope it doesn't look too nasty. ><
Kureno the Rooster: He, like Rin, is not present in the anime! *nags Takaya-sensei* "Why?!?!?" Anyway, yeah...don't know much about him either. He seems to be a servant of Akito. Oh yeah ><, the rooster that he transforms into (and I'm not entirely sure if he even transform at all in the manga) might not look like my version of it. >< Again, I found reference of a random rooster from the picture dictionary.
Hatori the Dragon (or seahorse): He's too stern...>< and I don't like him that much. Good looking but he's such a boring character! Surprisingly, he was easy to draw! I'm not that good with men...but I think he came out pretty nice.
Shigure the Dog: Okay, I'm VERY sorry, Shigure-fans. He came out looking like crap!! >< And not a thing like Shigure! Wahhhhh! I tried though! I tried a billion times. *sigh* Personally, I LOVE Shigure. This guy's a wonderful prankster, has a great sense of humor...and a bit perverted but hey...it's part of his sense of humor!! Haha!
Kyo the Cat: *sigh* I wish the cat was part of the Zodiac...I really do...Why isn't it, I wonder.
Momiji the Rabbit: He is SO CUTE, it's irresistible to say "aww" when you see him. Such a happy little boy despite his sad history!
Ayame the Snake: Now we're getting to the good part :aww: Ayame-san is such an ass when he talks but still I LOVE HIM TO DEATH!!! He's SO CUTE!!!! Ahhhhhh *explodes*
Haru the Ox (or Cow...): Haha...It's HILARIOUS when he turns black...:rofl: Very nice character...I love him too!
Akito the Head of the Sohma Family: Creepy guy, period, but he is good looking ^^
Ritsu the Monkey: Hahaha! All that is in his vocabulary is "Gomei-nasai"!!! :sniff: Sad life history plague...again...

:bulletred: Drawn with pencil
:bulletblue: Colored with crayola colored pencils
:bulletgreen: Outlined with ink pen

This took me four days in total. But I only drew Yuki on the first day and judged that he looked good. ^^ Then on the second day I began sketching out half of the crew. I finished sketching and inked on the third day. And did the coloring today. Wow...haha...I told you my whole process! Yep, I'm really proud of the coloring too. A lot of people like Yuki, which is not surprising, cuz he is kinda cute. ^^ Thank you!!!! :hug:
:iconefrondarabbit:

EXACTLY how I feel...you can notice that I kinda slacked off when coloring Rin (who happens to be the last person/animal I colored ><;) The blue background was crudely colored as well. :XD: Haha...also my skin's kinda hardening from holding those pencils for so long. Eeek!
:iconefrondarabbit:
i kno!! when i was coloring that *naruto closet* pic the last thing i colored was narutos shirts that were hanging up, i went be it sooo fast cause i was so eager to get it done and show the world xD the coloring is somewht sloppy on that, but the main focus was on sakura and sasuke, which i went patient on ;) its best to color the most important things first, thats my lesson learned
