Behind the sweet smile lies the defending champion of the yearly Autumn High school Kendo tournament, Yoko Takawa, a young master in the Nito-ryu.
Well this autumn tournament is gonna be her's again
Notes:
Yoko was meant to be the main character along side Xane for a previously planned manga, then I always have trouble drawing girls that why she doesn't appear much and her character profile change alot as I struggle to fit her into the story as I can't make up my mind whether shall she be a flower vase or someone who can fight well against.
And doing this piece really make me wanna go back to my kendo training which I had stopped for over 4 years since my life got very busy and unsettled, let hope I can find time to return to training soon.
Hey I really love the angle as well, but I think that the colours work well. Gives it a kind of evening feeling like it's in Autum and the sun is making evening dark and golden.
You are good with this style.
The tree branchs gave me a little creep, it look like vein.
will u prefer I lower the opacity for the branches?
your color scheme is generally a little muddy. maybe you would like to try to up the contrast abit.
