Description Me when starting: Yeah, ofc I can draw some dumb flowers -w-
Me when sketching: I can't draw some dumb flowers ;w;

An art-trade with trashlord23 featuring her oc; Megumi ^^

It was really fun to draw her long flowy hair and the long sleeves on her kimono -w-
On that note, drawing kimonos is apparently a science. There's so many small details to remember, and I still don't really understand how the very long sleeves are/aren't affected by wind, and finding a reference to help was a bit tricky lol.

Tbh, I'm not sure if I got all the details of her design correctly, but I hope that it's at least close enough lol.

Her part of the trade: fav.me/ddsl7y3

a little fun fact about her kimono:

kimonos are supposed to be folded left over right, since right over left symbolizes a dead individual. so since megumi is a shinki, I designed her kimono to be right over left.

im also happy that u got the folding right^^

I did notice that ^^
I was contemplating asking you if it was intentional, but it seems I made the right choice lmao

Wooow! So pretty!
My first thought was: "aww, what pretty flowers!" so I think you can definitely draw some dumb flowers
I like the overall concept from this drawing, how it's framed, the bg and all those pretty colors!
And I loooove how you colored the hair **

The framing took a while and a couple tries to get right, good to know it paid off -w-

aaaahhh she is gorgeous : O
I feel ya with flowers, they always seem so easy in idea but then actually drawing them is rough XD. I think you did a great job though. Her hair is also very pretty.
