This was initially done on impulse when I thought I heard it was Nel who will be the cover feature in this week's chapter. But much later after I was done with this and decided to double check the trends.... it turns out I must have misread or something. Halibel will be in this week's cover. Makes a lot more sense now that I think of it.

Why did I draw Grimmjow instead of Halibel you might think? Well, at that time I mistook the information (for Nel), I had a mental fussing in my head, Nel had already been 'featured' in a cover spread a few chapters ago and it feels somewhat unfair in a way for her to be featured again so soon (not that I hate Neliel or anything, I like her, but seriously Grimmjow had been MIA longer than Nel). So, as to cheer myself up, this was the result -which I have no regrets on doing even after realizing my mistake (I'd be drawing Grimmjow sooner or later anyways).

Please excuse whatever glaring mistakes you see here. I couldn't really be bothered ((well, I DID try)), I was too distracted on concentrating with his hair, face and *cough* torso *cough* <X'D
Besides, perspective and swords ain't my forte to begin with, anyways.

Enjoy!
