She didn’t turn out like this on purpose. See, I wanted to draw Sawako in her new years outfit (it was SO cute). BUT, that poncho was too complicated (and I didn’t like it THAT much anyway) so she turned out like this. I also have no idea why her hair’s not straight, or why she doesn’t look like Sawako at all.
A while ago, I noticed that, usually, the more finished a person’s art looks, the better their rough drafts look in comparison. Therefore I’m not going to bother with cleaning lines anymore.
Also…SOB…Kimi ni todoke’s over…I love that series…there needs to be a second season…no matter what happens, the live action movie’s Kazehaya will never be as cute…

however you may say it doesn’t look like her, i knew it was Sawako the moment I look at this. You did great, and I especially like the background.
