Ibuki, what more could you want in a female character?

I appologise to all the people who have visited me at the cons, because i am constantly drawing her. To the fellow who bought this sketch in AX 2008, this is now an official alt costume for her that i have drawn on two other occassions.

As for the style, yes it is loose and dirty. I don't know, i started out shding her in all nice, but then I said eff it. Crap, I am always doing the same shiz over and over again so here is something new. And it was freaking fun!

This is of course not to suggest that this is how I will colour from now on, but for this sketch it just feeled right.

I know i can shade the crap out of it, but i just didnt see it that way this time. A con sketch is supposed to be quick and dirty, and i elected to utilize the same technique here.

I imagine she has just finished off some heavy training, and you are asking her questions like when you started fighting etc. Or perhaps that kind of cocky look in her eyes is from you challenging her.

Quite the narcisist with her name across her shirt lol. As if she wants to remind you who exactly is kicking your ass lest you forget.
