Description Yay, finally finished my Date watercolor art Got a nice new nib pen too, so now I can do much better line art! Date...why must your wardrobe be so monochromatic...there's only so many shades of black and blue

Had fun painting Date's crest...so why are these two fat little birdies so angry as they kiss? And please don't tell me about my perspective problems...I know, I know...am trying to improve, really I am

Date Masamune from Sengoku Basara

The show is fun, but nothing amazing other than how hot the guys are I've heard the game is super fun, but am not much of a gamer outside of Okami, Zelda, and Mario So I'll probably never know!

Thanks so much, glad you like it

I was about to speak of proportions (rather than perspective) but then I saw your deviation comment XD

So very nice colouring work

Waaaah, no! Not Angry Birds! Had no idea Date went on from battling to become a game designer ...poor thing, hope he doesn't get fat sitting behind a computer screen eating junk food

Thanks soooo much I tried really hard to make his as hot a bishi as my skills allow!

Waaah. Usage of watercolours! <333

The only way to improve is trying. I fail at perspective myself... xD
I'm glad that you're trying <3

Aren't watecolors fun? I'd forgotten how much I missed them until I found them buried in my closet. I can never decide if I want to make my pics look like clean cell shading or more abstract with my use of watercolors...time to figure out a style!

Adi-san In reply to YumeNouveau [2011-08-19 07:57:55 +0000 UTC]

I have loads to learn about watercolours and I know it.
I think it would be watercolours, since I prefer flow of colours than cell shading. That's why I like very abstract and weird anime (Gankutsuou, Mononoke...) [link] [link]

YumeNouveau In reply to Adi-san [2011-08-20 17:43:21 +0000 UTC]

Oh ya, I totally love those two anime! Mononoke is so great, I have such a crush on the medicine seller mmm pointy ears And Gankutsuou is so amazing too (except I hated the random mecha fight at the end ) The art for both are soooo amazing! I got to see some of the original Gankutsuou art prints at AX a few years back, waaaaaah!!! Have you seen Mushishi too? Came out about the same time...amazingly lovely art, perfect for watercolor, and wonderful story

Adi-san In reply to YumeNouveau [2011-08-20 18:14:52 +0000 UTC]

Mushishi I saw right after Mononoke came out (I saw one raw, then came translation of it).
I even have full soundtrack of Mushishi... >.>;

Gankutsuou I picked because of the Count of Monte Christo. Really. xD Only because of that. It was before Mononoke for me and then I just felt in love with that style of anime. Textures, textures and even more textures. While Mushihi is watercolour.

Yay, you love Mushishi too! Such an amazing series, and so beautiful! Wish they'd do a second season of it

Ah, the Count is awesome! Love his clothes, his pointy ears and his overall amazingness! Ya, he and the incredible visuals make the show awesome

Adi-san In reply to YumeNouveau [2011-08-23 08:30:09 +0000 UTC]

Even Life Action movie of Mushishi isn't that bad! xD
And yes, I second you at the thought of another season, yet... I'm afraid they might turn it into boring thing after all.

Clothes! And his harp-playing girl servant. I don't recall her name, sadly.
Count is a bastard with motive, that's why I like him.
