The final colored version of my re-draw of this Inuyasha manga page from chapter 557:
http://adinuyasha.thebrokenconsole.com/557/557pg22.html
I purposefully jacked up the brightness and contrast on the colors in this one since they are floating in what's presumably a very bright white nothingness.
The original sketch of this can be found here:

Copied from the original sketch page: This image in itself isn't a spoiler, but it IS the moment immediately after the jewel has been destroyed in the manga. The text on the page says "It's over...", thus the title. Inuyasha and Kagome have been inside the jewel (or I guess that's the limbo where they've been) and they are floating in the middle of a lot of white nothing at this moment.

I do offer prints of all of my stuff on a per request basis, btw. I've had some inquiries about prints, so I just thought I'd mention that. E-mail me if you want something.

Wow!
The colored looks even better than the pencil! XD
Nice job, love the faces and expressions...
Inu/Kags foreva!
I've always thought your artwork was beautiful, but something about "It's Over" moves me in the heart! (Probably cuz I read the manga online and I remember this scene thinking "after 5 years, it's over" LOL!) I guess it's when I looked at how soft the overall tone of the colors looked. Then I read how you messed with the lightening and all, then I thought "OH right haha!" But what REALLY just draws me in are Kagome's eyes. They look very soft and ..."open".
I love the entire piece, but I really truly love are the faces. It's like in an anime-related stylization, but at the same time, it holds YOUR style to it as well and the combination is just stare-worthy I believe.
Keep on drawing!
