The rough adopted is below. Torimome “This is the composition of a girl who wants to paint on the windows of a building. By taking a bird's-eye view, I gained momentum.”



Detailed rough with color image added. Torimome “It was a form of“ draft ”until the rough, but in the detailed rough, we will lay out the image so that the completed drawing will be clear. I want to feel a little more“ painting the world of girls ”straight I wanted to add more momentum to the composition, so I tried to scatter the paint forward



Correction instructions were sent as shown in the image below for the overall color scheme and details. In addition, because it is a challenging and difficult pose, the orientation of the shoulders and the position of the buttocks are adjusted for how to draw the human body.
