Description
I have to say, that this turned out a lot better than I thought it would. I've always wanted to draw a pretty girl in a kimono... and I thought, why not? lol. The kanji in the top right hand corner is peace and faith. (peace being the top two and faith being the bottom one) The kanji on the bottom is Romans 5:1 in Chinese.

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ

Nothing in this pic is from another source. I wrote all the calligraphy out myself (man does my hand ache... >.< ), and the rice paper was created in PS. I'm not sure if I pulled it off... but it looks like I did. The cherry blossom petals turned out so pretty. You've gotta love making brushes in Photoshop. =3

This is absolutely gorgeous. ^_^ I think it's cool how you like to draw their necks proportionately like they are on real people. ^_^ In anime they are always much thinner. but you go girl and support the way God made us!! Whoot! ^_^

It's really beautiful.

I can't colour hair very well, eiher it's a solid block of colour or it's too realistic for the ret of the drawing Oo; I'm glad you found something that suits you :3

Beautiful! She's really pretty and the kimono is nice too. The background suits it well ^^

I think the neck is a little bit weird though, but that may be just me

Gezusfreek In reply to Mur4s4me [2007-02-26 16:57:59 +0000 UTC]

Thankies. ^_^

Yeah, the neck did seem weird, but only when the hair covered it. Before I drew the hair, it looked fine. lol. The hair makes it look thicker. o.O
