The Mark of the Vehement Flame

here's another Akemi piece. this was my stress reliever xD i've got a bio final coming up thursday and my driving test is on the following day...

anyway, it's nothing special, the pose is somewhat influenced by Avatar: The Last Airbender, love that series, wonderful characters and animation, good story too. so yea...Akemi has a tattoo on her left arm, like what the heck!? when did that get there? fufufu, i've kept it hidden all these years (lol i kid, i just decided to give her one, the original concept was a sketch in my sketchbook like...a year ago ^^; )

so the title's in latin, i'm pretty sure it's gramatically incorrect, but meh, i don't know how to speak latin, just used a dictionary and pieced the words together: aestus mean passionate fire and insignio...you guessed it, a mark...or insignia :P

i had fun with this, i tried adding textures to her clothes, they turned out fine i guess...i particularly like how the boots turned out :)

Ooh, way cool. <3 I love the pose, and the way her clothes are all WOOF, as well as the flaming arm. ^^

Good luck with your bio final, by the way~~

You, honestly, always seem to amaze me.
Of all the artists here on dA, you truly have
a unique style. Compared to your old art,
you've really matured and progressed well.

:clap: Kudos to you, my friend.

You're so skilled ^_^ Seriously, send some of that talent my way :P

I really love the Japanese symbols in there, it really adds to the picture as a whole. Beautiful line art, as usual ;)

Hey, good luck on your Bio final, I'm sure you'll do great! :glomp: Yay for your driving test! :D I know you'll pass ;) :glomp: But really, good luck with that, just think of this 'WWKD' heheh What Would Krissy Do? :P Although, maybe that's not the best thing to remember :P

Anyway, good luck, you MUST let me know how it all goes via dA or EMAIL! :)

:glomp: YOU ROCK! :glomp:
