Spirit of Air

Random little Elemental Spirits piece, just because I drew it and it turned out beyond cute. Yes, this is Spirit Aeris. For those of you who check out my scraps (and know who Spirit Aeris is), yeah, I changed the spirit soldier uniforms. A lot.

I was never really happy with the design. It was good and all, but I felt I could do better. I could design something that didn’t look like another uniform that had been designed. Today, I started doodling, and this popped out. I liked it, it’s simple but effective, and decided to color it. Truthfully, it was supposed to just be a dress with some random decoration on it, but it looked better with the breastplate, so that’s what I did.

I’m not sure what the crystal there is, exactly. I just felt like making her hold it. It’s probably important or whatnot, since we know crystals in magical girl stories are important, but I haven’t come up with a reason why just yet. Hmm.

I like how Celadonia came out. I’m glad she’s back to being a bird. And I’m glad I can draw a half-way decent bird.

So yeah, random little ES piece, serving no real purpose, as this is a story that’ll never see the light of day. Maybe. I just like designing and drawing for it.
