Artist's Comments

I did this for one of my projects (that I didn't finish due to an issue that I will tell when I'll come back). It had to be religion-related, so I drew my own version of Amaterasu, the Sun Goddess in Shinto.

The letters on the side is written Amaterasu-Okami if I remember, meaning "the Great Goddess" or "the Great Spirit that illuminates Heaven", and it's her full name. The letters on Kusanagi means Ame-no-murakumo-no-tsurugi "Heaven's Cloud-Gathering Sword".... I used Wikipedia, so I'm not sure ^^;.

This is a masterpiece, very nice detail in the lower sleeve of the dress, and talisman, is she part of some original manga or story?

Thanks! ^o^

Hm? Strange... I thought I already wrote the description O_O' ... Anyway, nope she's not part of any manga I guess, unless it's a reference to the original. This is my version of the Sun Goddess in Japanese Shinto mythology, Amaterasu. I will add the description, so you may find more information in it like references I used, etc.

An example of her being somewhere else is in the PS2 game Okami.

This is absolutely beautiful.. I love the faint clouds in the background, against the strong, dark lines of the girl and the writing on the left. Her robe's design is just lovely, and the shading on it is very nice... not too much, but not too little, either. Also, the way the fabric is moving in a supposed wind is very nice, it has a good flow to it.
Her hair is nicely done, busy, but not overwhelming. The smaller free-floating strands are a good touch to keep it looking more realistic.
Her right arm (on the left) looks a little long... if she were to open that hand, her fingertips would nearly reach her knee, instead of mid-thigh which would be a bit more realistic, I think...
But all in all, this is just incredibly line work and shading.

Wow, I haven't had a great and detailed feedback like that for a while [smiley] Thank you so much for your time!

Oh, I think someone mentionned about her arm in deviantART, but thanks for pointing it out ^.^ I appreciate how you give both critiques and compliments!

Thank you! ^w^

I am very proud of this piece even with the major errors. I think I will do an Okami (ps2) fan art one day, so there will be two Amaterasu in my gallery XD

The hair are oftenly my favorite part to do even if it could also be the longest. I like to use that spaghetti trick XD

Really nice, i love the contrast between paper's yellow colour and the black ink. You're really good at traditional media! ^^
I see that you also like Kaze-hime's art [smiley]
