Master Art: Buddhist Iconometry. Loosely inspired by this method of determining body proportion, just visually in regards to the arms.

Present Artist: necroneol 

I was inspired by their casual lines and regal artistic style. 

Although I do like how the hair and pose look in theory, I overall dislike this piece as it did not meet my vision for it. I regret not using more references and winging it, because the result was that it looks less solid in form that I would have wanted it to. I sought to create something detailed and etheral, but in the end I don't feel like I achieved either of these goals. It looks too boxy and cartoonish (the childish colors only worsening this) which took away from the deadly, gracefully threatening feel I was aiming for. Next time I will reference clothing more thoroughly, and be more patient with execution.
