Shira-Ou-Saya Kujaku
(White-CherryBlossom-Sheith Peacock)

yes...its a very long name...

Even Though I drew a lot of kimonos in my younger days I only seriously studied its structure lately. This is the first one that I feel I have applied what I learned onto the design.

She was born into a prestigious family, but learned Ninjutsu from Takanosuke's father. She is a mix of a swordsman and Ninja. She normally only use the dagger with her ninjutsu and only uses the Nodachi when she is trying to take care of a lot of foes in a short period of time.

Her costume is a mix of Ninja and Furisode. (long sleeves worn primarily by girls who arent married)
Because it is a fantasy setting i gave her the short kunoichi torso kimono instead of the long skirt.

F*ck...is that enough to let you know that i like this girl ?

@__@

Her pose is rather boring, but I can't help it, i wanted to display the kimono this way.

This will be an 11X17 inch print, on glossy cardstock for Fanime in San Jose, California.

Love the details, I didn't like the face that much tho. That kimono is excellent, great work. Also the soft shading is a nice touch.

One of my friends had this on her favorites and recommended it to me. This really is a beautiful picture. I love everything about it. The colors, the shading, even the pose...Amazing. I am so jealous of your talent.

I was wondering, where did you learn about the structure of the kimono like that? I've been wanting to draw kimono-wearing characters for a while now, but every time I try I can't get it to look right. Could you pleae give me some tips? I would really appreciate it, thank you!

Well, I was on my way to this gay gypsy bar mitzvah for disabled people when I thought, "Gee, the Third Reich is rubbish, I think I'll kill the Fuhrer." Who's with me? - River Song, "Let's Kill Hitler"
