Jian Zi and Long Xiu by arkoniel

Jian Zi and Long Xiu

Description

Jian Zi - left, and Long Xiu - right.

First. I'd like to apologize to all those who speak Chinese/Taiwanese, and know these characters. Sadly I don't speak either, so I may have mistyped or misunderstood their names.

Second. The characters from the drawing are Pili puppet characters from a Taiwanese puppet show. I love the extraordinary beauty and detail these puppets have. Pity that their story isn't available in English.

I like the hair colors! I really like how the lavenderish hair stands out because the rest of the picture is mostly black and white. I think that's really awesome. I notice these things ever since taking Painting....lol

Superb details! They look like heaven gods or emperors.

silverwolfsakura on April 11, 2009, 11:53:32 AM

nice. i love it. i especially like the character with the silver hair. maybe thats just because i have a thing for those characters with that particular color. anyway. it's an awesome picture that deserves the best rating possible. out of ten i give it a 200!!!!!!

Wow! This must've taken an incredible amount of time. And the results are extraordinary.

And, congratulations on the Featured Artist. :)

My god!!! you have talent...its feels amazing tu see someone have such talent..the emotions u captured is the hardest part...but very well done very real..very clean..15 out of 10..very imressive...was this done in photoshop??

agesworld on April 7, 2009, 7:04:49 PM

Beautiful, and well done, but im perplexed as to whether they are both men or not.

em3042 on March 17, 2009, 5:58:42 PM

Wow this is so beautiful! =D

Rei_Anul_Sama on March 18, 2009, 11:49:12 AM

only one word to discribe this: wow.

second reaction: darn, they already have a story.

third reaction: ....................maybe i can make it better.....................

fourth reaction: *shot in the head*

yeah, this is pretty awesome, they puppets are pwetty too...and I think that Jian Zi would be seme and Long Xiu would be uke, if they had that kind of relationship. Then again, if i decided to try and do a 'fan writing' of their story...they would be in that relationship. XD
