Okay.

So-

I recently started watching Ouran High School Host Club again for like the millionth time in my life, and of course like every other time I rewatch the anime, I have to go on a Kyoya fic spree. This time however, I somehow ended up finding this REALLY good series (that's still ongoing), and I fell in love with it.

It wasn't until like halfway through the chapters that are available so far that I realized that the series had actually been on my reading list for a while (specifically from last year), but I'd unfortunately ended up forgetting about it.

But that's besides the point.

eqc123 is the author of the series, and about a week or so ago, I saw a post on her blog (which is literally so aesthetic-), from earlier this month talking about the one year anniversary of Lavender Roses, and if any of us were artists, we could totally make fanart of it.

Now, I am by no means an artist, BUT, I still wanted to draw something (especially since I've been itching to draw Kyoya for a while now).

At first, I figured that I could just do something in watercolor (since I'm trying to get into that), but then I decided to be a pain in my own behind and try digital art (key words being try)!

So without further ado, here is my fanart for Lavender Roses:

I actually really liked the way Kyoya turned out, since I was trying a new art style and all, but then when it came to drawing me, somehow it's like I forgot how to draw?

Like what happened?

I didn't like the way I turned out in the drawing. T-T

My skin tone's off, my hair's all weird, and what is up with my face!?

So, in a very logical Death Note level genius move, I made the background pink, thinking it would fix things.

It did not.

But I don't hate it.

That's a win for me!

I hope you like the fanart eqc123!
