Prancing Suika

Suika, the drunken oni of Touhou Project... To the best of my scanner's ability.

This didn't come out too canon, because I kept utterly forgetting clothing details, and I often simply lacked the colours needed for the job. Was going to have her playing a flute, but a recorder was more fun to draw :> no sake for Suika, either. The picture was done over the course of three or four days, because I am slooow and constantly busy.

Media: 3H pencil (my 4H has succumbed to overuse) finelined with a Crayola black colour pencil. It's cheap, so it rubs out! The colours are Karismacolor - otherwise branded as Prismacolor - supplemented with a Lyra skin tones set. All very expensive x.x the paper is Daler Rowney "Fine grain - cartridge" 160gsm/98lbs, and the canvas size is a 10cm by 15cm.

The tree stump was, incidentally, a complete afterthought. I had her in that pose, then thought, "needs a prop". And thus, the stump was born. Hopefully there's some cool symbolism in there. Oh yeah, and I'm wishing I'd remembered to depth-cue the shoot now. Curses!
