Amaterasu

Amaterasu from the PlayStation II game Okami.

My first drawing in colors for over 5 years, so it took kinda long to finish because I was scared of using color pens. I planned and planned and sketched and sketched .. then carefully added more and more colors .. slowly and carefully.

I know she doesn't look exactly like she should, I took some artistic freedom and made her without the red paintings on her torso and head. I think her face looks more like a dog's, mainly cos I had the neighbour dog's face on my mind while planning her, but anyway ^^


Tools: A3 paper, normal pen, soft eraser, coloring pens.
Time: about 12+ hours.
