Well, it's taken quite a while, but here's the colored product! See the lineart here: [link]

It's probably the most complicated thing I've done (one or two possible exceptions), and I really like how it turned out. Big thanks to my sis, for showing me some cool shading techniques for this - especially on the gold lettering and the hair.

There's still a few things missing or not quite right - for example, I don't have the little dangling charms in Rio's hair or on her pendant. I don't have Kaisui's necklace or gloves. I don't have Lady's gloves. As my sis would tell me, the gold lettering needs a bit more white in it. And admittedly, the lighting is indefinite (though I imagine there being one big light source behind Lady, and of course the orb in her hand).

This may not be my final version - I may yet attempt to insert some awesome background stuff, and try a bit of cropping on the sides to center everything and make it a bit more manageable as an ID for But for now, I'll go ahead and submit this one. Hope you all like it!
