Description Finally I submit new art!!
*ish baka*

If anyone wonders, I'm completely aware that the guy (yeah it's a GUY, dammit XDDD ) has chinese-like clothes, japanese-like swords and korean-like decorations. I just like mixing elements of those three cultures ^___^;;
The BG was inspired by Yi Chong's 'Bamboo in the Wind' painting (Joseon Dynasty period ).


And yeah, it was supposed to be a bloody pic but I changed my mind (read: got lazy X333 )

Very, very beautiful. The screens in the background are very, very nice, and I love the elegance of his legs. The mix of cultures is done very well. This makes me think of the writing dojo-ish place in [u]Hero[/u]. x3

he's beautiful! such pretty eyes and i want that daishu (i love swords so much =^_^= ).
the pose is so tense (like he's about to spring) and the curl of the braid adds such wonderful movement =^_^= (i especialy love the way it flicks about at the end). *cocks head to one side and thinks....* lol! his hair is doing exactly what mine does.... but his is doing it well! lol! (i tie my hair in a waist length plat and the longer i leave it in the more bangy bits of fringe come out =^_^= but damn i wish it was as long and looked as good as his).

Your pictures always have such a warm feel to them. There are so many things I could as kyou....

What do you think about when you're drawing/coloring? (Music playing?)

what kind of system do you use? (I should already know this. =_= )

How do you get the character to blend in with the background so well? The lighting matches so well, it looks like the person is really a part of their environment.

the visual impact of the mix of cultures certainly wins me over! breathtaking, I absolutely adore this piece. The warm hues play contrast beautifully with his eyes, and the pose is very lively, as though he's pausing for a brief moment after a spin.

bravo!

As I said in comments for this pic, I was inspired by korean art from XVII century. I wanted to get a similiar effect...

Cultural blending. niiice. I realy like his clothes. The bits of ripped fishnet are sexy. Shiny and silken, I love the dragon pattern. The solids are so pretty! The swords are so shiny! I love their detail.
