Artist's Comments

This drawing is a prize for :iconmemeteka: winning my 11028 Kiriban!!

She asked me to draw her a picture of Mulan as her prize :)



I've never drawn Mulan before, so it took a BUTT load of time, research, and references for this. I really wanted this picture to look good.

Yes, I DID try to imitate the Disney style. No biggy.

I also enhanced her outfit greatly from the original, trying to imitate the Disney Princess Jewel collection style - a style they re-did all of the princesses in (basically, over elaborate, jeweled, diamond, sparkly, swirly, glittery versions of their original outfits)

I was inspired to create a 'Jewel' outfit for Mulan, after looking at pictures of the Jewel Collection Disney Princesses on a tissue box I have. Her outfit seemed so plain and boring after I finished the picture, I just wanted to make it look better somehow.

AND BY GOD YES, there's a background! I am extremely proud of how I designed the clouds. I wanted the background to have some texture, patterns, and an overall good look. I'm really hoping it looks 'chinese'.

Oh my gosh! This is beautiful! :jawdrop:

The details in the umbrella and dress are amazing (as well as the rest of the picture :D)

And the circular outline of the picture really draws your eye to each different piece of the artwork :love:

I love it!:heart: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! :glomp:
