I just finished this little Spirited Away fanart. I love the movie so much and I've been wanting to draw something for it for a while. Now that I've finished the huuuge book cover I've been working on, I thought it was the perfect time for something smaller. (More wips and final for the book cover are coming. I'm just waiting for approval from the author.)
For some reason, I struggled with this a lot, because I just couldn't get the face in the ink drawing to look like the sketch. I still like Chihiro's face a lot more in the preliminary drawing. It's hard to translate the softness of a child's face into ink. I hope you like it anways!
Thank you :)

You did a beautiful job in a small space of capturing a lot of emotion and her sense of amazement, and she was instantly recognizable from the start.
