sketch (asagao stuff)

trying to decide whether to combine two of my characters or not... ... my anatomy and perspective are really lacking. I need to start going to life drawing labs again. storyboard class (afterhours) is already kicking my ass though so it will have to wait.

Well, Geishas have pretty fancy kanzashi and all. She wouldn't smoke, though.

Speaking about Geishas always reminds me of Takeshi Kitano's Zatoichi movie. xD

I thought only Maiko wore the fancy ones? I guess I need to read up!

I wanted to make a "fancy style" kitsune character for a while, I was thinking about going forward with this particular design (but more accurate, once I figure out what the hell I'm trying to do. :D)

Ah, I might be mistaken then. ^^
I know for a fact that Maiko wear their obi long in the back, though. Then there's all the difference in lip paint shapes...

yup, I'm pretty sure that you're right that I'm mixing them, but I kinda knew that when I was drawing it, just playing around with what I liked, if that makes sense. *_* but I dont know anything about the ones that wear them in the front!

The ones that wear them in the front are Taiyuu (I think that's the term) and they were the hookers. They wore incredibly high geta and walked in figure eights and the likes. And tied the obi in front because it's easier to remove that way. xD

I figured that was something to do with it! :) I wonder if they had the really fancy headdresses and kimono too?

for a kitsune, that would be the perfect job (obviously she wouldnt have any coniptions about such things!)

[rotem.livejournal.com]

Of course! The fancier the better, I suppose. xD
Oh, and they didn't wear any socks, apparently. 'cause a naked toe peeking out from the bottom hem of the kimono is sexay. xD

lol! well good thing I like drawing toes!

now if I can just figure out a good story. I may still want to use the wider eyes on her though, they're so fun to draw! *__*
