:pumpkin: Happy Halloween Everyone!!! :pumpkin:

Hello, :wave:and Happy belated Halloween guys. I initially intended to submit this before Halloween was over and done with, but unfortunately, things do not always go the way you plan. First I couldn't get into :dalogo:deviantART, :slamhead: then about three days later, once that inconvenience was over and done with, so was Halloween. ^^; Then, once I got back to :dalogo:deviantART, I wanted to get permission from Cheila, the incredibly talented artist whom created this line-art, to see if I could post it.
Anyways,:lightbulb: I just happened to come across the notion to make this a Halloween picture near the end of September. I thought it would make a good Halloween themed coloring piece because of Luna. I don't quite know how to explain it, :? but there was something about the way Cheila drew Luna in this line-art that made her look like a Halloween kitty to me. :shrug: Then, the more I looked at the piece and thought about how to color it, I thought about, the idea just came to me...Sailor Candy Corn. The idea worked itself out perfectly, because the sleeves have the three rolls, the gloves, and then I thought about dividing her skirt pleats into individual candy corn colored sections. The same thing for the breast bow too. I couldn't decide for a while exactly how to color the ornaments in her hair, but my Dad mentioned to me that it looked pretty good the way you see it now. :D It was also my Dads idea to give Luna a mask. ;) When he said that, I thought, well, she may as well wear Sailor V's mask if she's gonna be wearing one. :meow:
Anyways, once again I apologize for submitting this piece so late, and I hope everyone had a very safe and Happy Halloween!!!

:bulletorange: Colored using a program called iPhoto Plus 4, and it took me a little over a month to color, while working on it approximately 3-4 hours a night.
:bulletblack: Original line-art by: Cheila

Hello FruitTartz!:iconomghaiplz:

Awww, Thank you so kindly for stopping by just to comment for me. :tighthug:
I do feel a bit ashamed that I had to search for people in the Status for some comments though.:ashamed:
Nevertheless, I really do appreciate your time and comments. As you probably seen yourself when you viewed my colored line-art, it doesn't bring very many comments.:shrug: I realize that I am only an amateur, but this was also my very first upload.
I actually received more :+fav:s on the piece, but got no comments in return,:shrug:

Anyways,:iconthankscommentsignplz: it really really means a lot to me!!! :iconsquishhugplz:
