End of the Century

Something about the changing seasons makes me think about the past a lot. Maybe because most of my memories are winter memories or something, I dont know.. but any time it's fall, I think of Animoon. This time I randomly started doodling my old character Kaze, and instead of scrapping it I decided to finish it. I went back as far as i could to her original sailor scout-y colors and everything, and then gave it a modern twist.

It's really kind of odd.. This picture was something of a journey. I can't explain why or how. But when it was done I felt so relieved. Not because it was over, but because of the reality behind it. I guess it's pretty abstract, but suffice it to say that this goofy little sailor scout OC from a million years ago means a lot to me.
