Traditional Krystal

This picture was drawn to show that even the South Eastern region on the United States has artists that are just as good as and . America does have talent. We're not the knuckle-draggers that you think we are.
<-- We're just as good as Japan, France, England, and every other country.

This is the second time that I have drawn a traditional Krystal. The only modifications that I made to her original character design were removing her armor and jewelry. Not that she ever needed armor in the first place. She had what, her shoulders, forearms, and calves covered? Heaven forbid she hit her shin on one of those pouncing 'shrooms.
I promised good work on this one, but I'm not happy with her skirt. I tried working with it in order to fix it, but it steady got worse and worse. I like jeans better! They're easier to draw and color.
This will be the last "unmodified" Krystal that I draw. That's why I made a different background than the normal.
I am pleased with her fur, though. For the first time, I have done the blue fur correctly. I'll tell ya. Blue is an awkward color. Whichever game designer thought of, "Hey, instead of Krystal being just a normal fox, let's make her blue!" needs to shot in the street and left in the gutter.
I remembered her tattoos on her arms this time. On "Krystal: Dinosaur Hunter," [link] I forgot to color them in.
Krystal was drawn with my lucky .5 mm mechanical pencil, which is black... go figure.
I colored her in with Prismacolor pencils. Thrust me, they're the best... even if they cost a small fortune. I used up half of a tank of 93 high-test gasoline just to replenish my expensive collection of color pencils. The drive wasn't that far. I just refuse to drive anything that's not American made.
The background was created using photoshop CS3 because I'm too cheap to buy CS4.
I hope you like it.
