Sakura Hanami: Naomi and Crystal

Description

I wanted to do this one back during my Spring Break, but I ended up coloring it now. Mainly because at the time I made it, I was getting stuck with hairstyle, whether to put one in a kimono, give one a hanami dango (if you don't know what that is, here: www.oliveplan.co.jp/jp/dessert… ), give one a Frappucino™, and so forth. But I got myself to make something that I'm happy with, and that's the good thing.

So, here's Naomi Jackson and Crystal Du Bois (in humanoid form), enjoying the view of the sakura (さくら) in spring. In Japan, the season for viewing the sakura, or cherry blossom, is often referred to as hanami (はなみ), literally "flower viewing", and it's a time when people enjoy the [fleeting] view of the cherry blossoms with picnics and such. I've always wanted to draw a picture like this with the petals flying, like you would see in a typical anime or manga. And of course, I drew their summer uniforms on them. The hardest part of drawing the picture was actually Crystal's hair, because I've never drawn 1830s-type ringlets before, and wanted to do so for her.

I've got an alternate version of the picture, actually, which I hope to be able to post tonight as well. It just contains one additional feature is all. Hope you all like this work! =D

Cute! I love this! :D This is a really great OK Rulez picture, and I love this so much! Oh, and by the way, I hope you can post more OK Rulez art this month for me, I just hope you can. Oh, and I almost forgot: What are days when you don't have school, besides summer breaks and spring breaks?
