Description Yet again, another submission for the Mahou Shoujo Mary Sue jam!
[Art Jam] Mahou Shoujo Mary Sue: Make it Work! 5/7 - A rainbow warrior joins the crew!  
 Also, a quick clarification up here since people are asking: there is no deadline for signup and no deadline for completion, at least not in the foreseeable future. 
(Still true as of 5/6!)
The comment section is starting to get crazy so please, please use the signup thread when joining! http://comments.deviantart.com/1/669666690/4351670231 
Note: I've been hiding misplaced and no-longer-relevant comments so I can more easily find new/current comments.
(Eventually, when activity for this has tapered off I'll share the generator in case anyone wants to play the home game. But that's not for a long while yet!)

Who doesn't love an art jam?
And who here hasn't made their own terrible Mary Sue fancharacter?
Well, here's your chance to right your past design wrongs and


My rolls:
Clothes: Asian-Inspired (Base all or part of your character's outfit on a traditional Asian garment) + Two or More Skirts
Appearance: Emo Hair (Bangs cover one or both eyes) + Unnatural Heterochromia (e.g. Purple and Gold)
Accessories: Magical Hover Wings / Detatched Wings + Magic Wand Weapon
Other: Elemental Palette: Fire (Use only reds, oranges, and yellows) + She's an Angel AND a Demon.  Because sure, why not.  Prints and Patterns! Incorporate a pattern that is not plaid, dots, or checkerboard and My Image Color is All of Them (Use 7 or More Colors, Not Including Black and White).


So, the clothes are modeled off a hanbok.  I used a few different patterns for her clothing coming from some stock I own licenses to.

The wings?  what the hell are they even.  They're not angel wings but who cares.  Also, those eyes...

I somehow managed to use 7 different colors.  Holy crap.  Most are blues, pinks, or purples.  The gradients in her hair were added in photoshop.
Also, if you're curious, here's the base image, before patterns, color adjustment, etc:

She is so cute!  I love the choice of a khakkhara for her wand weapon and the decision to use a hanbok for her clothes.  Hanbok are so vivid and colorful that it plays perfectly into the 7+ colors requirement.

Thanks for joining in again with this fierce gal!

Hey~ I don't want to bother you. I wanted to leave a comment to let you know that I really enjoy this piece! Great job, and I hope you keep up the great work! I was hoping to watch you if that is okay, and if you like my work too you're welcome to watch me all you like. I'm really not trying to pressure you, that's not what I'm about. Either way, I hope you have a fantastic day and always find a reason to smile. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this rather long comment.
