#kimono Part 10: Hakama
This particular one is called “Umanori-Bakama (ooh-mah-noh-ree-bah-kah-mah) which is used when men rode on horses (which is why the ends of the hakama is split like pants)
Hakama is closer to skirts, since the crotch part is so low down and loose.

That is interesting... someone stated that Japanese anime’s face profile is not modeled after a white person’s, but more closer to a cat’s profile.
So this artist uses cat photos to reference the balance of the face profile for their drawings. twitter.com/rokuta02/statu…

WEAR A MASK
Feel free to share! We all want this pandemic to be over.
The sooner we all comply (TEMPORARILY mind you, it’s not permanent) the sooner we can get back to normal.

To American friends, Happy Thanksgiving!
I’m grateful for the support and friendship you have given me over the years, especially this year.
I didn’t have time to draw something new, so here’s a turkey girl from years ago:

#kimono Part 12
Haori is like a cardigan, and it is also part of men’s formal wear.
The length of the Haori depends on what’s trendy at the time.
Haori for men and women has slightly different features.
There are different types of Haori-Himo that you can mix and match.

I still get comments and requests on different East Asian traditional clothes all across different social media pages.
Know the difference!!
(I’m not too familiar with Chinese or Korean clothes, so I apologize if I picked traditionally inaccurate images)

Happy Halloween 🎃
今年は Witchtober 参加出来なかったのが残念😖
でもどうしても魔女は描きたかったので、子供の頃から好きなハロウィン映画「ホーカスポーカス」の魔女達を描きました。

#kimono Part 14: Shiromuku
There are several types of wedding kimono in Japan.
Shiromuku is the oldest type.
Typically it’s all white, but sometimes they put accents (red or gold).
The wedding kimono has the longest sleeves, around 114cm long.

So I looked into different Kimono rental places in Japan, and there are places where they welcome LGBTQ+ people.
I’m not sure how they accommodate to body types, but here’s a picture from one of their website.
I could only find this one image, but they look awesome don’t they?

#kimono Part 16: Hiki-Furisode
These wedding kimono can be styled with “Japanese hair” (traditional style) or “Western hair” (typical updo).
If the hair is long enough it can be styled into the Japanese hair by itself, but if it’s short “half wig” or “whole wig” can be used.

To the people who think manga is stupid and inferior.
Manga takes a lot of skills, and a lot of thoughts and effort goes into it, no matter what the drawing style.
ONE artist work on the story, character design, page layout, etc, unless the artist and the writer is different. twitter.com/MikeyBuysManga…

There have been cases of:
Artist upload a sketch/wip on fleet → people screenshot the work → trace it, complete it, and upload it before the actual artist does and claim that they are the creator.
And because twitter.com/tamatama_tamak…

今日の教会で完成させた落書き。

Time to post this again.
Just to be clear, TRACING OTHER PEOPLE’S ART AND UPLOADING THEM AS YOUR WORK IS STEALING.

久々のアナログ絵。
やっぱり絵はアナログの方が楽しいです☺️
もっと時間作れるようにしよう…

Especially if you’re making comics… the point of comics isn’t to show off your skills with individually drawn coins, but to showcase the story visually.
And if you have deadlines…
You need tools like this to make your work process easier and efficient to make it in time. twitter.com/TheStarfishfac…

I guess I’ll have to find a time to redo the referencing/copying/tracing post from a while back, because it seems like there are people misunderstanding some of the wording.
I did get my English checked to see if it made sense,
49
they uploaded it before the actual artist did, and because fleet disappears in 24 hrs, there’s no proof left of the fact that it was stolen.
So if any of you are uploading sketches/wip there, be careful and keep in mind that this could happen to you too...
