Description Just some sketches inspired by my recent trip to Hong Kong. Some of you may recognize the characters, others might not.

These are kind of all over the place in terms of how I made them, some are photoblue pencil sketches, others were done with ballpoint pen or 6H pencil. I used acrylic ink over the top of that, and then added some watercolors.

These were both drawn in a car, and at the time I couldn't access visual reference, so both of the Chinese Opera costumes, and I believe, also the jewelry are massively off. I don't think that anyone holds water sleeves the way the girl in the yellow gown does. None the less, hope you enjoy!

Hope to get some more completed works up here shortly, but I thought I'd sneak these in in the mean time.

The opera costumes look lovely~ I kind of want to give Feng a hug, though. He looks lonely.

Thank you! Lol, and indeed, Feng is a sad, sad one. He is in need of many hugs.

Glorious, glorious, glorious. Glorious line work, wonderful expression, amazing characterization and posing. The impishness of the lady in the yellow costume is great, and Han/Wo Bai's misery is really palpable in his pose before the fire. Your characters actually look Chinese, instead of sort of neutral/caucasian. I can't believe you inked these in a CAR. Brush pen?

Gleeee! Xd Why thank you so much! Lol, I did not actually ink these in the car (I must have worded things strangely in my artists comments). The figures were drawn while I was a passenger in the car. That being said, I have tried to ink on a bus and a car, and both situations are horrible, horrible ideas. XD Anyways, thank you very much!
