Description
This is my oldest character, I have been working on her since I was 11 so she has come a long way. I drew this one a good 10 years ago & I'm now currently working on her new incarnation. She's my very own antihero who can control ghosts and paranormality.Related content

thanks again, the idea is that she carries the handle and when she needs to battle she is surounded by sakura which then forms the blade

I like this. It reminds me of catwoman and batman mixed together (lol random). I like the shading and composition.

my 1st and only attempt at a background, the problem is i work with water colours so its very time consuming but i felt seeing as shes my oldest character she deserved it. im sure i will create backgrounds for all my characters but for now i just want to get them all drawn and finished

This is most excellent - I am in love with that corset! What really sets this off is the detailed background - so many pieces like this just end up being the character floating in space or with a hastily sketched background (I know I am majorly guilty of both these!), and so it makes a nice change to see as much attention put into the surroundings as well as the character

Yeah, now this is awesome. My painting skills are amateur at best (though I'm working on it) but I do know wicked paintings when I see em.
This is going in my faves, glad to have another watcher/friend with great skills.
