Description
Another entry for 's contest, this time a traditional artI have had an artist's block for about a week, but this broke me out of it. This was done in my style, not okami style (except for the sun and some other stuff). I wanted to try watercolors sometime or another, so I decided to try it on this, although I don't actually have any watercolor paper or paints, so I just had to use my brother's plastic can of the crappy Crayola stuff that you get for like $2, and regular art paper
Time taken: About 5 hours off and on.
Tools used: Cheap $2 watercolors, regular paper, Prismacolor colored pencils, gel pens, and Sharpie pens.

Another thing, I wonder why in Okami and Okamiden there are always little rope thingies tied around trees.

I think it's some form of respect to the tree's spirit or something.

Just so you know, Chibi doesn't have the same markings as Ammy. Great picture, though. I'm faving. ^^

Oops... I thought only the head markings and swirly wing things were different, from the references I was using, the rest looked the same XD. And thank you!

I just went to a bunch of Okami-related websites (waaaaaaaaaaay too many to name), and they all said that Ammy's markings were the same as Chibi's it's just the little wings that hid the patterns a little bit

Yeah, but the head marking is different, same with the eyes. I know what the difference is, it's just kind of hard to explain. They're a little different, look at the official artwork pictures for Ammy and Chibi.

It's really good! ^^ Great colors.
One thing you might improve on: (because constructive criticism is useful) Ammy's anatomy is a little off... Chibi and Shiranui are both great, though. ^^

And yeah, when I did the sketch I redid Ammy a few times because it didn't look right, but thank you for the helpfullness!

Whats strange is they are the same deity (sun god) but Chibi and Shiranui are male and Amaterasu is female. Beautiful work btw!
