Description
I am, yet again, an elf for
Secret Santa #3, OC Haru for *LethalPepsi He yes he is so pretty oAo! i just assumed his name means spring
I feel like I was lured to draw him, because I just finished watching Mononoke couple of weeks before working on this, so the hype is still there (Not Ghibli's Mononoke Hime, but モノノ怪). I'm trying to capture the unusual feel but still make it appealing... worst part is figuring out how a junihitoe (the kimono he's wearing) works OTL;;; there might be mistakes, so many references in my folder now haha.
Some advertising ahead.
That series, I LOVE IT!!! very much T-T even though I'm not into horror/mystery genre, but the characters, the style, the pattern, the cinematography agh
can't say enough!If you know what I'm talking about, my favourite story arcs are Umibōzu and the initial Bakeneko from Ayakashi (that big first impression). If you feel like checking it out, it's a different kind of anime and might be not for everyone because of its 'mature' story, but it's really worth a try ^^ (or if you're into Takahiro Sakurai's voice LOL he sounds great)
With that all said, it's a fun experience. I hope you like it, and Mononoke if you see it ^_^

This is one heck of a creepy anime I tell ya. The 1st time I decided to try it out, it was raining, and it was dark, and it was at night, and I was alone, and I never got pass what happened when they went up the stairs... I chickened out... Dx
But the art gives tribute to traditional Japanese art~ so kudos to all those kimono motifs~

Oh wow this is gorgeouss. I really like the deceivingly simple but also complex design you used.
I also always like your clothing patterns, regardless of whether you draw them or not hehe.
But I think my favourite is how you drew in the umbrella actually. It's just...way cool

You're very right, the series design style looks simple to do but it took a lot more attention than I imagined ^-^a The patterns are both texture and some re-drawing here and there~
And thank you for liking the umbrella ;~; and for the lovely comment
