Your 15th crown is awarded to this beautiful doll. This is extraordinary. Every aspect of this design is phenomenal. The background of black appears to be velvet and the floral arrangement seems to glow. Perfect. Superb. A pretty crown will rest on her head for your 15th ccomment and crown. This is mesmerizingly beautiful.
Thanks! I actually went image diving through google to find a kimono pattern, and pulled influences from two or three that caught my eye. I may have also saved a few others for future artistic inspiration. XD
@ GingerMae Thanks so much. I know it's probably snobby of me, but stylized kanji drives me up the wall, so I try to avoid it. (Though, that extends to yanking random words from other languages too).
@ GingerMae yup! As it was explained to me, you're pretty much spot on. I tried to recreate the kanji from a calligraphy scroll a friend did for me while I was visiting her, but I could only get so much angle without resorting to photshop or GIMP, so it's not as accurate as it should be.
Also, you are hardly trolling this doll, and I appreciate you explaining for everyone else. ^__^
