"Careful, baby. The candles ain't the only things on fire."

I was gonna put it in the picture, but refrained from the tackiness.

Anyway, this is birthday art for ~kichigo whom I love to death. The sketch has been sitting in my WIP folder since her 19th birthday, and the inks since her 20th. This year, I vowed to finish it, so I took a much needed break from coding the Visions of Sugar gallery to color. The pathetically lazy background is compiled of brushes I made and a photograph of one of my cakes, not that you can tell for all my filter mongering.

Also, I find the way I used to draw cakes before I actually started making them to be both laughable and barfalicious. In an artistic sense, of course.

Happy birthday, Triiiiish! Sorry it's so late (eight days early for this year, and... yeah, couple years late for your 19th), and I hope you still like Zelos!
