My idea of Haruka with long hair..

[Reosaur]

My first attempt/sketch at the beloved Haruka... But with a twist! Inspired by Satty's avatar of Chihaya with short hair I decided to come up with some sort of way to make Haruka with long hair. I don't usually feel comfortable with sharing my works with others but I mean, I gotta start somewhere, right? Whaddya think?

Cuuuuute as the biggest Haru~nyan fan here, I think I have the right to say she would look great with long hair!

Cute sketch!

Inspired by Satty's avatar of Chihaya with short hair I decided to come up with some sort of way to make Haruka with long hair.

And not by my pleas to have both Azusa and Haruka grow their hair out?

Because I generally try to give my honest (personal) opinion when I can, take these as you will (and remember I can't really draw myself).
Top pic almost looks like yukkuri Haruka. (Not necessarily a bad thing if that's what you were going for.)
Bottom pic, maybe the shape of the face put the mouth too high? Dunno.
Both: Bangs look a bit square (kinda like they're pasted over the forehead, instead of having body and draping over it), and the ribbons look like they spent too long in the dryer (you probably know this).

But overall, pretty good! The glasses look natural... in fact, I forgot for a moment Haruka doesn't wear those.

Yay, I became inspiration!

Anyway, that looks good, better than what I can draw. Also, them glasses.

I love them! They're very cute.

Animagic: Haha! Thanks, I feel very special being complimented by such high Haruka authority! And I think she would look great with long hair too, maybe not exactly what I drew, but long.

Cael: Oh, I'm sorry. >XD I didn't know you had the same idea, though yeah, I'm not sure whether I prefer Azusa with long or short hair. Anyway, I really appreciate the honest opinions you've given. As someone who is trying to improve it's good for me to get criticism. The top Haruka was supposed to be a rounder like.. Cute version? Like sorta "semi-chibi..." If that's what Yukkuri Haruka resembles. And yeah, the ribbons I find to be a pain to draw so I kind of just slapped them on there to have them since Haruka wears them.

Satty: Yes, my friend, yes you have... Also, I tend to like seeing glasses on girls who normally don't wear them. It's cute.

DereDere: Thanks! Maybe I can make something for you sometime since you made me my homepage.

Haruka looks great with long hair too!
I like her glasses

[Reosaur]

Hey thanks! It'd be pretty cool if she grows it out in the anime. And I like the glasses too, makes her look more mature.

It's too cute! I prefer her with long hair now!
