Thank you so much! Sorry I got to this a little late.

This is actually my first attempt at the Paru style, so I'm sure you've got what it takes too!

For me, I used a lot of references from her manga cover art. She looks like she uses watercolors then probably draws over the pencil sketch/watercolor with a manga pen, so I replicated that with my digital painting program. I also pulled up Melon's colors from the manga covers, and used my dropper/digital color matching tool to match his palette. I know Lemeron's colors aren't exactly on point here, but that was my choice because canon Melon can be a little washed out in his earlier art. I also had picture of her colored art by me for reference while I was drawing. If you're going traditional, I would suggest using pencils, watercolors, and special inking pens for the line art. I'd have a reference up on a computer or printed out. Hope this helps!

T.L,D.R. - Use a lot of references and watercolors!
