Striptease

Mihoshi doing a sexy striptease.  It's not what I'd consider romantic, but I'll take this opportunity to plug the "Romance" monthly theme at   February Theme: Romance!I know it's kind of cliche and sappy, but since Valentine's Day is this month, I suggested the theme or Romance!  Anyone who submits a deviation of Mihoshi expressing the theme of "romance" in the month of February may suggest a theme for next month.  The theme for March will be chosen at random from all suggestions.

I'm experimenting with a new technique, ink-wash, with hatching on the clothes for contrast.  I'm really happy with the way it turned out and I was fun to do.  The only problem was that the watercolor paper I used had quite a bit of texture to it so I had to be really careful with my pen to keep the lines straight.  Maybe next time I'll use a brush for the lines.

Mihoshi is from the anime Tenchi Muyo! and is copyright Masaki Kajishima
