This is my contest entry for the :iconmikeinel-fanclub:'s Event-tan Contest.

And yes, my entry is the aurora borealis ! I am quite pleased as to how this came out. This took me a while to come up with because I had NO clue as to how I was going to portray the northern lights. Aha. I referenced from a bunch of pictures of outer space and the aurora borealis. (I basically was staring at whatever google had to offer when I searched them up.) Also, I used a lovely reference stock as well to draw Aurora-tan !

Although I have never seen them in person, (it's still not crossed off my bucket list, aha) I believe viewing the northern lights with one's eyes would be a very memorable event in their life. I mean, they are colorful lights gracing across the night sky, how is that not special ? :D

Anywho, I suppose I should provide a brief description of what the northern lights/aurora borealis are:

"The northern lights, one of several astronomical phenomena called polar lights (aurora polaris), are shafts or curtains of colored light visible on occasion in the night sky."

Anyway, I hope you guys like it ! (:

Oh, there may be future minor edits to this picture, because I still have yet to get this critiqued by my boyfriend ...

It's just seems like she's doing an overexaggerated duck face or something.
No offense, just thought I'd point it out.
