Zelos genderbend

A genderbend of Zelos from Blazing Souls Accelate.
I worked very very hard on this one and it might be my best drawing so far! X.x
It took me forever to figure out what I wanted to draw for the background since I had never done one like this before..
The whole idea of the drawing was to have her shoot and slash while running sideways, as if in the middle of battle.

Made for the Genderbend competition at MangaAnimeArts.
Which obviously didn't win any place since there was only 1 Judge (the main admin) and the judging was subjective to things he liked instead of being objective about skill and creativity like he claimed it to be. =3
I thus left the group because that is not fair towards me and all the others who did their best for nothing.  

Made in Corel Painter 12 using the basic brush.
