C/P from my original Post.

So I decided to work around the clutterfuck that is call Ancient Chinese Theater Clothes. Why? Simply because sometimes those clothes are so full of details and pattern that it hurts. You know that artist Pollock? Pretty much from a distance that’s what they look like. Walking Pollock pieces. So I try to loosen the pattern a bit and lessen the color yet still retain that ancient theater look. It’s somewhat successful?

Enjoy!

From Pathfinder RPG. Maybe the broken spine is intentional to make her look inhuman, but you never know. Artist is Caroline Eade.

What’s she trying to do? Is that supposed to be a slashing motion or something?

archiemcphee:

Photographer Hiroshi Watanabe’s series entitled Suo Sarumawashi is populated with portraits of many present-day Japanese macaque monkeys festively adorned in costumes. Today, many people dress up their pets for their own amusement, because a tiny pup parading about in human clothing is just precious. However, in ancient Japan, the practice of dressing monkeys in samurai uniforms held more significance.

The exceptionally trained macaque monkeys used to don outfits and perform religious ritual dances to keep the country’s warrior horses safe. Over the thousand-year history of the ancient art, the performance has evolved into a traveling act for entertainment purposes, escaping extinction. The practice, known as Sarumawashi, is literally translated as “monkey dancing” and is one of the most popular traditional Asian performing arts these days, along with Kabuki and Noh.

The acrobatic primates in Watanabe’s images are anthropomorphized not only by their attire but also through their demeanor and expressive facial expressions. Each of the subjects appear to have a separate, recognizable personality. Despite the discipline and skills they possess, there’s still something incredibly precious and adorable about the monkeys in their quite serious costumes.

You can view more portraits from the Suo Sarumawashi series over at My Modern Metropolis.

Day 01: Aneir in fancy armor.

So I spent all day on this, and if I had the choice, I’d fix a bunch, but this was supposed to be for my “Drawing a day” and I’m pretty sure that doesn’t mean spend all your waking hours on one picture each day, so I had to finish it. In the end I couldn’t decide if it would be better as is, or to omit the beast she is killing completely, but I left it to give viewers…a small hint of what she is facing. That is probably bad from a ..framing/compositional point of view?

Sweeeeet. Hat-tip to mirouge.

Okay, this is pretty much amazing, and I’m not sure exactly why.

It is amazing because it looks like someone made a house out of the leftovers of the Rivendell set.

The tags say this is in Versailles, France. A little cottage/chateau with a moat.

I think I should like to live in this place with a man who loves me dearly and doesn’t object to the fairytale adventure bound to ensue.
