Description

「 n o t e ◢
I composed with tarot cards in mind, bc she's a Queen of Swords
her pose is meant to compliment and show off the sword that is a part of her identity and a symbolism of her great strength to intimidate her enemies (her facial expression is also meant to be intimidating/looking down upon her enemies)
the wings (freedom/divinity) and nasturitium (a flower that means conquest/victory in battle) are white to match with her sword, further emphasizing the significance of the sword on her character
aside from the meaning of the nasturtium, the flowers have a role as a sexual metaphor of her femininity/fertility
I used the color picker tool to make sure her original colors are exact, but I also made sure that every element of this reflect a purple tint, bc purple symbolizes nobility, royalty, and mystic power--- all of which define Akane
the flowy cloth on her is intended to make her look more like a goddess---there are a lot of curved lines to make the long sword stand out
also dramatic lighting to further define her character
I've been rendering this piece bit by bit everyday to make it easier to see mistakes, but I still need a lot of practice with this style -wheezes-
