Off-screen view and cropping of Letter II
In 2012, when CARNELIAN discussed "Teigami II ~ Orange Flower," she hoped the girl's gaze beyond the painting would spark viewers' curiosity about what she was thinking. The previous work used full-body composition, but this time she chose to crop off some legs and legs to add a sense of outward extension.
Printed color schemes and soft materials
When CARNELIAN draws 'アサガオ', she pays attention to choosing colors that can be clearly displayed in the magazine print. The 2013 Shine Festival production record also shows that the print uses double-layer printing, with non-woven fabric as the upper layer to create a soft feel.
The white-blue color scheme reminiscent of "White Camellia."
In the 2014 Q&A published in 'Shiro Tsubaki,' CARNELIAN explained that when painting, he adjusted the overall color balance with white and blue, hoping that the cool colors of the winter white camellia would still convey the warmth of the characters.
Restoration and trial stamping of the 'Olive-Colored Room'
The production records from the Shine Festival in December 2015 show that after multiple rounds of print color proofreading, the project team discussed with CARNELIAN to change the illustration tone, and CARNELIAN recreated the adjusted data. The rework added tables and chairs: these objects appeared in the first draft, were later removed, and this time returned to the scene.
When "Oliveiro-iro Yaya" was converted from the cover of C88's new book to a print, the project team repeatedly tested printing and color adjustments to approach CARNELIAN's desired olive shade. Both mirrors were initially fully covered with pearlescent finishes, later changed to varying intensity pearlescent finishes; Blue eye hair color can also be adjusted individually to avoid being affected by surrounding colors.
From world props to complete event footage
When creating the PC-based work "Yami to Boshi to Hon no Tabibito," CARNELIAN focused on drawing themes inspired by children's literature with a sense of strangeness, paying attention to how the costumes and props evoke different worlds. The evaluation focuses on the entire event scene after coloring, rather than just the performance during the key animation phase.
Submission of novel illustrations and handover of setting assignments
According to Akira Yamazaki's 2012 novel production interview, when Yoshimune publicly recruited illustrators, CARNELIAN was the first to apply. Hiroki Uchida also recounted that he handed the character design text materials to CARNELIAN and then received the character design drawings.
