In Sept. 2013, I received an invitation from KeyFC forum to draw an illustration for 2014 Calendar. I chose to draw for September because Kyou's birthday is September 9th.

I started in early October and finished right before the deadline, the middle of December. I spent too much time on lines and hairs, so I barely had time to research on cloths and background.

Yet another painting that took me more than a month. You can see how much effort I put in this one through those 37 steps. Please take a look at other illustrators' paintings in the reference link. The full calendar can also be found in the KeyFC link!
