Description Kara no Kyoukai fanart. Shiki's one of my favorite characters in anime thus far. This was inspired by offical KnK artwork, as well as the anime (which is very good, btw).

Oh my god, the petals took forever!!! I hand drew all the petals from her sash thingy x_x The blossoms on Shiki's "kimono" is a brush, obviously. I can't recall where I got it, so if anyone recognizes the maker, do tell and I'll happily give credit

I haven't been submitting stuff on dA because I've been working on a commission. I finished that two days ago, so now it's back to drawing whatever I want.

This piece would have been a real killer if you did a little better job drawing her face!

At first I was really surprised, when I saw your drawing at preview - it wasn't your usual warm-coloured art Then I looked at it closely and - wow! It's Shiki! Cool! )

I like her pose and her expression. My goodness, those petals do seem like a lot of work indeed! But they look beautiful!

So....pretty *_* I love it. Shiki looks like she's ready to kick some arse, hehe. It's amazing that you had the patience to draw all those petals 3_3 I think it's also interesting that you tried for a more cell shaded look, compared to some of your other work. It's a nice balance of soft and hard.

Anywho, as usual, I luv luv luv your work, and you better keep making art during college, or I'm going to have to come and chain you to your sketch book Muahaha....

Well, maybe not. Can you tell I've had too much caffeine?

Me: "dude, I can still do other things, ya know?"

You: "wut? no you can't!"

But thanks

It's like Byakuya made the scarf... one day I'll get around to watching the movies Sarah let me borrow and understand the reference made here.

I'm very pleased with your soft glowy effects. Motion of the piece too. The azilarin crimson red on her attire is to DIE FOR.

ooh commissions. You've been employed. I like that too.

Lol yes yes! Watch the movies!!! They're so good! I haven't really made a specific reference, but there's an awesome song at the end of movie 1 called "Oblivious". It's kind of engrish, but I love it so
