Description
A much, much improved wedding picture. I like this way more than my previous Maiko wedding. Also, I realized that I've never drawn them actually kissing. Go figure. I hope it conveys tenderness and love. <3I decided to do Zuko's hair like it was in his dream from The Earth King. I've never attempted it, but I like the way it turned out. Background is from google and heh, I cheated a tad on the clothes, but not too much. DX
Inspired by the film One Night With the King, the story of Esther. I loved their costumes.
The theme song of the movie is Kingdom of Love my Shani Rigsbee and it's beautiful! You can listen to it here: [link]
The lyrics in Farsi are:
Ziba malekeh hamra he shah ba jaho jalal
Ziba melekeh hamra he shah
Miad as rah
English translation:
The beautiful queen and king are coming in all their glory
The beautiful queen and king have arrived
King Xerxes: Of all commodities love, is the most cheaply purchased.
Hadassah/Esther: If it is for sale, my lord, it is not love.
In My Arms, a lullaby by Plumb
Your baby blues
So full of wonder
Your curly cues
Your contagious smile
And as I watch
You start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight
Knowing clouds will raise up
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms
Story books full of fairy tales
Kings and queens and the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You'll someday see the truth from lies
Knowing clouds will raise up
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms
Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
But you are never all alone
Because I will always
Always love you
Clouds will raise up
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

I love mai's clothes, they look like Indian clothing, reminds me of my region of culture 8D. And red is bride's colour as well, sweet. This is lovely and I love the soft look.

This is really really beautiful! Mai looks really good in this! Her outfit looks kinda Indian inspired, or the little I see. Is it? Because I wouldn't be all that surprised if Fire Nation Weddings take some influence from Hindu ones, personaly.

Forget I commented, but this is simply gorgeous! I love the colors you used--the red and gold. *__* Make the picture simply more regal. And I'm so glad there are more maiko shippers. More fanart to oggle or stories to read.

*drops dead* Simply gorgeous! And this image just speaks volumes! I love Zuko's face and how Mai's hair falls! And their fancy clothing/garments are AWESOME! I would buy those in a heartbeat, walk around town, and be laughed at. But it would be just fine by me. Very, very nice.
