Tee-hee, yeah, I know, the idea of having winter and her kimono as spring is such a clash. Owell Her family name is Winters anyway.

This is Yuki showing off her kimono for everyone to see. I feel that I've improved once again compared to the last few days. The colors I believe are much more fluid and better blended this time I suppose.

I do hope that this art work appeals to you all and definitely, this deserves lots of faves. It took me two weeks to finish this. If you want to see the previous version of her, check this [link]

Tee-hee, thankies a lot. Awe, you should. Traditional can be so fun! Especially when you make the mistakes cuz you have to be creative to hide the mistakes. I'm trying digital soon as well.

Endo74 [2008-01-27 16:19:04 +0000 UTC]

amazing!!...

i love the simplicity of the line art... and how you put most of the detail into the patterns...

just curious ...why you don't seem as interested in the figure, face, or hands...? (no nails on her finger tips...)

-nose barely indicated...etc.
-collar bone ...a dipping line (no definition)

delicateporcelain In reply to Endo74 [2008-01-28 11:39:01 +0000 UTC]

Tee-hee, thank you very much. Oh, now that you mentioned it, I now realized that I forgot the nails. Hmmmm, well, the real deal looks way better than this. She has pale skin and scanners are very evil when it comes to light colors. They really tend to wash them out thus taking out some of the definitions.

ahh~ traditional art~ it got a nice complexity that puts the focus on it's beauty. i'm really impressed by ur coloring method as it shows a high degree of skill and originality. the coloring style seperates itself well from other anime art. the umbrella has a nice design and the pose seems so hard to draw O . O wonderful composition, gorgeous art~ = ) great great job~
