Description
"Butterfly...you can fly away whenever you wish. Do you know how lucky you are, or do you take your freedom for granted?"I was watching the old movie "Butterfies Are Free" and happened to look at a picture of Kagura and noticed the design on her outfit...and behold my amazingly deep idea was born!
I really like Kagura, but I hadn't tried to draw anything of her yet so I wanted to give it a go. Maybe her eyes and ears aren't exactly right, I'm not sure. Pretty darn happy with the design on her outfit though!

oh wow, this one's great~~! I don't see very much Kagura fanart around the place, and you did an awesome job on her pose! 
I wasn't too keen on her at first in the anime, but she grew on me, and in the end she actually turned out to be a character i quite liked
I love the blossom in the corner, and as usual great work on the shading! ^o^

Same here, I didn't care for her too much because I thought she was just another "bad guy" but then she ended up having so much depth and her motives weren't just good or evil but driven by the desire to be free. Yeah, I was motivated to do this because I hadn't seen too much Kagura fanart...there is some really good stuff out there, but I thought there could always do with more.

Excellent work Kitten. Kagura is so beautiful, anything looks great on her. Nice idea with the butterfly designs, fits very well. To be honest, Kagura looks perfect in anything. Even in rags, her beauty would dazzle me. She's the best. Thank you for sharing

I have to agree with you there...Kagura is a great character. She might be my second favourite female character next to Sango. Thank you very much for the comment!

She's very beautiful and her pose is lovely, a very expressive one. Even if I don't know the character I think I get a pretty good idea of her personality based on this.
And you know how I like butterflies.

Butterflies are great symbolism, I always think. Thanks for looking at this even if you don't know the fandom, it always means a lot to me when people do that!

Ooh! I really like this one! You can draw poses so well-I love how her arms are crossed and her head is tilted. I also like the eyes because you gave them some depth. Her outfit is so pretty. And cool feathers!

Thank you! It's not very often that the poses come out looking like they did in my head so I was pretty happy with this one. I think her outfit would be the thing that would put me off drawing her again because trying to keep a steady hand while inking those circles was impossible.

She's one of my favourite characters, she has a lot of depth for a "bad guy".

Thank you! That came out of my head at the spur of the moment...it probably would have been better if I'd looked up an actual quote by her but I was very lazy. Haha!

her famous quote is still "I am the wind, the free wind"

I can't believe I forgot that...I think it might be time for me to watch the series over again! haha!

Thank you very much! I thought it was about time I branched out and tried to draw some other characters.
