Happy Chinese New Year!! Sun Nian Fai Lok!!
3rd day in the Lunar New Year of the Rat featuring Renko and Toumi from Kaze.Co, I returned to the more energetic type pose similar to [link] T_T;; But...with FANS and FLOWER haha!!  I updated poyo yo!manga with a short manga of Kaze.Co [link] So you can now read it online~! The calligraphy part was really time consuming....it doesn't look much here but I spent about 4-5 hours just writing them with the actual brush with 20-30 pages trying to get the stroke down. Argh..I wish I practiced it more earlier haha. Oh well...here's a photoshot of my practice sheets [link] It felt awkward having my dad critique my strokes haha. It's very rare for him to critique my artwork...so getting my writing critiqued was a strange experience. I used some of my dad's writing ("Luck" and the cursive "mouse" in the background) since mine still looked like crap no matter how many times I've tried. To be really honest, I had to trace the outline of the peony and fans...because it would be too time consuming figuring it out without enough study. I found good reference from the Chinese Red Envelopes I saved over the years! Renko and Toumi look a bit older than usual @A@;;; Maybe because they are aging...as I am T_T;; Their pose is a bit exaggerated. I attempted Renko's pose for reference...but my leg hurt a lot afterward haha. Anyways, enjoy! Tools: Photoshop CS, Chinese Brush/Ink |

 reports, 1d 6h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

I like the CG (x
I remember taking classes when I was younger, the teacher gave up on me because instead of characters I just drew houses on the paper. xD.
