Okay, sorry guys, another post, but to make up for it I drew a cute little picture of some random girl (who looks like Hotaru from Sailor Moon) in a kimono:
Anyways, I was thinking of trying a new coloring style that I've seen in my book. I now have enough knowledge of the way of the marker to do this! There was some guy who was showing how he colored and he had this picture of a guy with a koi fish that he was going to color. The koi fish turn out to be beautifully rainbow with scales and such, and it didn't even look like it was done with markers!! O.O So I wanna try doing that!
Also! I saw this picture by Tukiji Nao of a girl in a kimono with tons of flowers in her hair and her kimono looked so realistic even though it was just because of the colors Tukiji used that the girl's kimono looked realistic...O.O I'm still thinking of how to do it though.
And another thing, that gets to the main topic is that, I CAN NOT draw flowers, or a least don't know how, so I'm going to attempt drawing several flowers. And I'll try that new coloring technique and have a girl with a kimono in the picture! ^ ^ So I'm been researching flowers and staring at them, but there's this one kind of flower that I keep seeing everywhere, but I want to know what it looks like in real life!! TT.TT
Umm, that kind of flower is in Jigoku Shoujo, y'know the kind that looks like it's made out of strings? Let me try and find a picture...wait...is it called a chrysanthemum? WAIT! I figured it out! Yes! ^ ^
It IS a chrysanthemum! Wow...figuring things out on my own, I have to stop asking people first...Well, actually I just was trying to figure out how to find a picture and then I remember that in the Curse of the Golden Flower Empress Phoenix's symbol thing for her revolt against the Emperor was that kind of flower...then I remembered that it's based off of the Chrysanthemum festival! So then I look up a chrysanthemum on google and I found a picture that looks like the kind of flower I was thinking of! ^ ^
Also, it said on wiki that Kuki, or Chrysanthemum's are Enma Ai's flower...thing...I forgot the rest...-.-;
Well, I drew the cover for Clockwork! I drew a clock!! YAY! ^ ^ I'm so proud of myself because every time it doesn't look like a clock when I draw it out...-.-; And I gave the clock roman numerals...though I'm not sure if they're right...is IX 9 or is XI 9?
Another thing about the picture, the inking seems to be pretty good! I'm proud on the inking also, though this time I inked it on the same paper...I was tired of wasting paper to make bad inking lines. I'd rather have them slightly lighter than usual black than wavy bad lines....-.-;
I've started to watch this anime called Moetan, I've only seen the first few minutes of the first episode, though. It's really cute! I'm mostly admiring the art and trying to learn japanese by watching it. Moetan is a anime/video game for japanese otakus who want to learn English, or something like that, so since it's in Japanese, I was thinking maybe I'll be able to learn Japanese this way! ^ ^ Cute and otaku way to learn japanese! ^ ^ Anyways, look how cute it is!!:
I keep talking about Aethereality, but I really like that website!! !.! Today I looked at really cute drawings by several different artists, and a lot of them were...umm...showing underwear and the likes? But it looks soo fun to draw (neh, I's a pervert), so now I wanna draw a picture like that, or draw characters in swimsuits in a cute style, but I dunno...
Lately I've been very confused (I usually am) because I can't tell which style I like better the adorably cute style, or the beautifully realistic style!! TT.TT What do you guys think? Cute or beautiful? I can't decide at all!! TT.TT The cute style seems really easy, but it's pretty hard for me...so that's the thing....but it looks fun to try...
