First of all, before we go into the sketches, I can't believe I've reached 100 follows here. Like omg. Thank you all so much for following me!

This calls for a celebration, and after thinking about it for a while, I decided to have not one, but two winners for the 5k views contest-raffle. Like a joint party. So there will be more chances to win, yay!

Also: sketch requests will be open sometime in the future... Probably randomly so keep your eyes open! As for now, my days are busy playing Pokemon, finishing an art trade, digitally painting some side stuff, getting dragged by my sister to malls and being hyped for SEVENTEEN's comeback. (It's on the 4th of July! Check out the MV when it comes out, yo.)

And now, without further a do, here are this chapter's dose of art, and what's more fun than fanart? One Piece has to be my favorite manga of all time (though FMA:B is still the most perfect anime ever) and I adore how well written and design each character are. Originally, I was going to draw my top 5 favorite OP characters, but number one and two just won't let themselves be drawn (damn you, Ace and Zoro!) so here's the rest of the list, sketched and dumped.

5. Jewelry Bonney
There hasn't been a lot of her in the series so far, but I love her design, her powers, her personality, and her potential to be a mega-badass important character in the future (I hope). I love her so much that I've made her my icon in several sites many times. She's definitely my favorite character to draw.

4. Sabo
When we first got the ASL flashback and there's this other kid next to the D. Brothers, I was like. Wow. Mind blown. Catalyst Character that Started It All™. And when he "died", it didn't register to me that he had passed away at all, because my mind had already equated that: trench coat+blue color scheme getup = Revolutionary Army. It was obvious to me that he would join the RA because we need a key player in there with a personal history/attachment to Luffy, and what would fit it better than another brother? Bottom line, Sabo's a great character. Well, he has to be, because he managed to not get overshadowed by the D. Bros' known, established bond and actually completes their precious brotherhood.

3. Nami
Favorite female OP character (though shoutout to Boa Hancock!) because she is so full of life. A complex character with a complex past and a one-of-a-kind talent, witty but still one of the weaker ones in the crew with her own set of flaws. Actually, this whole idea of drawing my top 5 came to mind because my sister had been 3D modeling Nami for a uni assignment, and it made me want to draw her again. Totally one of the easiest to draw and one of the most fun to explore in fics.

Expect Pt. 2 and the contest-raffle soon. Have a nice day!
