Orchids

Ever since seeing the film Chéri, I've been completely obsessed with Edwardian fashion, and... I actually really like how this turned out! The only downside to viewing this on the computer is that you miss a lot of the details― that hat seriously took me forever to ink. The dark colors also conceal a lot of the inking details, but the important stuff is visible.

I want to do more art nouveau styled pieces!

Orchids by Seitou

This turned out really nice. I had become accustomed to your palette of earth tones and was pleasantly surprised to find hues of rose, red, and burgundy brown with a touch of purple accent. The cheerful cartoon figures have been replaced by a solemn, thoughtful figure. I have always enjoys the detail and love that goes into your dresses and this image is cut from the same fine cloth. It's true that you have been gone for a while. But you certainly know how to make an entrance.

Wow, she's absolutely stunning. Though you mention losing a lot of details, I think the ones that are visible are well done.

I forgot to mention- Red and purple usually clash and generally don't work well together, but this looks really really nice. You picked just the right colors to compliment instead of clash.

I haven't seen anything from you in a while, this is really nice to look at. I love the reds and blues, and you did a great job using values too. Way to go! Gorgeous!
