So, Leigh and I are doing a joint project where she is writing an alternate take on Sailor Moon, with me as the illustrator.

This is art related to that project.

She came up with the idea one evening while waiting for me to get off work, and I continued with it, sketching it, then finishing it all off in this magical, beautiful setting.

I am quite proud of this piece. I kept showing its progress on Tumblr and I don't think I've been this excited for a piece in a long time!

[EDIT] Wasn't satisfied with the original star field, so I asked Leigh - with her awesome space-effects skills - to remake that particular background.

And now she's properly credited in the pic as well. :3

A wonderful pic! A really brilliant touch with giving Rei and Usagi current lives in their PGSM civiliian designs, and their Silver Millenium incarnations in their Anime/Manga look. I allways liked the "very simmilar, but not identical in look" when portraing reincarnation. I really can't wait to read this project :)

It's just a regular soft brush, according to her. She just dotted the background like you would make little dots with a pencil on a piece of paper (except with pen pressure, so light taps make smaller dots and hard taps make bigger dots)

And then for the glow on some of them, she just made the brush bigger, turned down the opacity on the brush and just swirled around the original star.

Very nice. The stars and moon in the background are very pretty, and I love not only Rei and Usagi in the reflection, but the surface as well, it's coloring is very well done and pretty.
