haha,it's really good. In the last one Mao looks like a Hollywood star Great job Okami!

Good =D

I just noticed I have tons of fanart laying around, but none of it it's finished... At least I know what to do once my exams are over.

Most recently I got inspired by a contest at Sasha forum and wanted to draw a dress design, but I got stuck at the stage of adding colors. Any ideas?

I was inspired by this performance:

And this image:

Music is "Polovtsian Dances".
I wanted a mix or subtle peach orange, subdued pink and gold like in the picture... I don;t know where did the blue come from. I'll change it, I think... Or maybe not.

The final version will have the view from the back as well. It's already sketched, but I didn't quite get around to scanning it.

Overall, I think it fails a bit as a costume design - I got too stuck on drawing the details of the face, hair, etc. Still, it was fun to sketch.

Great job Okami! I see this dress in different blues, may be a little add of gold and something like that))) Why I want Mao to skate to this music? I'm crazy! Just love it!

OKAMI!!! You are the BEST! I really love every single one of your drawings ^--^
I really look up to you ;__;
You are just truly a wonderful wonderful artist. I want to be able to draw like that someday! I know Mao (and Nobu) would be so happy to see these. You really have a gift.

((I especially love the Mao Masquerade Chibi))!

Please continue to share your work!

Another gorgeous dress, Okami.

I share Asya's sentiment - I think a shade of yellow or gold might be one to consider. Its one of the rarer colors when it comes to figure skating outfits, which is a pity because I think it actually works for a lot of skaters...Mao included.

Mao's favorite colors are pink and gold!

Okami, that dress and drawing are beautiful I would do it in any kind of blue <3

You are so talented Okami! Maybe you should design figure skating dresses too!
