BiMBO PiN-UP:: JAPANESE HARAJUKU (Work-In-Progress 04 - *Final Linework*)!
Added 2019-06-25 21:09:07 +0000 UTCDear Prissy Flouncy Pink & Bouncy Patrons... I hope everyone's been having a Super-Kawaii June...!!! :D:D:D
I've been drawing this character for quite a while now, but tonight the Final Line-Work will finally be finished and I can start colouring the image. :D
Pictured above is the original (& rather boring) purse design I decided to discard, as well as the initial Doll design. I decided to keep the dolls look, but I needed to draw it from a slightly rotated angle. ^^
I think this is one of the few occasions when the colouring stage is more of a daunting prospect than the drawing stage. As there's sooooo many little details to colour. ^^ But as far as the image (as a whole), visually so far, it's been one of my favourite characters to-date. ^^
On a personal note, Thank you to everyone who's been waiting patient for this image, the ear issue I previously mentioned has still been lingering around (despite it briefly disappearing for a couple of days after a week of medication, I thought the issue had gone, turns out it hadn't). @_@
... As I've spent the past 1-2 weeks barely able to hear out of my left ear, I'm (hopefully) returning to the Doctors tomorrow (if I can book an appointment), to find out the results of a test which was done previously. So hopefully the Doctor will be able to prescribe something stronger to cure the issue. ^_^

Thank you for highlighting that aspect Meisa. :D I genuinely didn't realise there was the emphasis on the 'Moo' Syllable on the end of 'Damu'. :D

2019-06-28 12:28:50 +0000 UTCDidn't realize this until I read the purse, but I love the little side aspect where the Japanese characters for "Dumb" have a very explicit "Moo" syllable on the end. :D

2019-06-25 22:11:40 +0000 UTCI really wasn't sure how the clothing look would turn out on this image as the Japanese Harajuku genre is so wide & diverse that just choosing one clothing item is hard enough... So I think leaning into the unicorn theme has definitely helped. ^^ With the linework complete, the colouring stage is much, Much quicker. :)

Just take your time and have some fun with the details. I like what I see, and I knew you'd like this Harajuku theme. It fits your art style so well. Looking forward to seeing it all finished.
