Seasons of Our Lives

Description

For the :iconclub-tutu: contest, March 2015! I've had this idea for a while, but actually doing it took so much more out of me, especially with school getting in the way. (For example, I have a test tomorrow, and I'm on dA! Hooray!)
Edit: No, it's not a pun on Days of Our Lives, I don't even know what that show is about... o.O

The premise:
Mytho: A 'time' setting could be the first season of the anime, where Mytho is slowly gaining heart shards and emotions; as the flowers of spring blossom, so do Mytho's emotions begin to unfurl and make themselves known.
Ahiru: Bright, sunny, and cheerful, there is no other season to describe her! She was really fun to draw, especially designing her bathing suit.
Rue: Beginning to be colder, autumn hangs onto the last fleeting rays of sunlight, but will eventually fall into the cold grasps of coming season. This is how I equate Rue with her Kraehe alter ego. In my opinion, she came out the best of the four, outline-wise (I need to get a light box, the sun and the window DO NOT work for me).
Fakir: He and Rue were actually difficult for me, if they should be as I drew them in their seasons, or switched. I finally chose winter for Fakir, representing the first season of the anime, when was cold and shut himself from the warmth of others. He found comfort in the loneliness, but you can only go so long before the sunlight reaches you and warms you from the inside out.

Media: Ink, color pencils, white paint pen.

SO NOW THAT IVE STARTED WATCHING THE SHOW I REALIZE HOW MUCH MORE PRETTY THIS PICTURE IS
Like it was already really beautiful but now I've seen like half the show and it just looks even better.

I've also become a dirty shipper thanks to you dammit. I can't look at Fakir and Ahiru without going, okay now please go kiss in a corner thank you. What have you done to me Mary?!
