Description

Another InuKag wedding-centric piece that turned into a bit of a personal exercise in... well... everything.

I wanted to play with clothing folds since it's something I'm always working on, and I also wanted to see how well I could pull off pattern on fabric since I hadn't purposely tried to do it since college. It also turned into an exercise in lighting and color, and overall I'm very happy with the result. I was originally going to do a little more detailing in the background, but the rendering on the clothing turned out so beautiful that I didn't want to detract from it.

Oh, dis gave me some serious feels! Very nice shading. I like the semi-realism of this drawing. I always wondered what Inuyasha would look like in real life, and this gives me a pretty good idea. Though, I will say that I picture real-life Kagome looking more Asian, because she is an Asian girl. But the way you drew her is still very beautiful!

The folds and the patterns are wonderful, as is the painting! Their expressions are right in character, and for some reason I am especially obsessed with his claws.

Amazing. I love this piece because of the warmth and tenderness you can see in their faces. It's not some half-hearted kiss, it's almost like a kiss they've been waiting for -- for years ...

Goodness, you portray emotion so well. The detail is incredible. I love it!!

You should at least read the last 20-30 chapters of the manga; that covers the final battle(s) and the ending.

This is definitely one of your best works to date. This image just pops off the screen, but without intense colors. When I first saw this, I thought it was a photo of a 3D statue you took a photo of. That's the best way I can describe your lighting in this. Excellent!
