I think it's from some anime called.. Rozen Maiden? My little cousin loved that show, so I hope I remember it right :D(have no idea what it's about, though).
Anyway, the coloring is beautiful. What colors did you use?

Oh fantastic, thank you! Just Googled and this looks completely right. I was asking around and there was a lot of thinking going on but no-one seemed to know!
Colours as in medium or colours as in specific colours? The answer to one is acrylics, and the answer to the other will involve me going and reading labels haha. About six different paints, mixed, anyway (:

Haha, I'm glad that listening to my cousin proved useful in the end! :D
Yes, I meant just medium, no need for label-hunting :D. Acrylics, hm? I never really got hang of those. Seems like it's worth the practice though :).

They're pretty good all-round! Takes a bit of time to get used to them but then you can mix up straight colours, or water it down, etcetc, and it creates different outcomes, so I love acrylics! Really useful.
As I'm not used to drawing this sort of thing, I didn't have any of those special pens (Letrasets?) to make good blocks of colour, so I just watered down some acrylic for a nice opaque look (:
