Jade (not jaded) Trickster might be good. The chinese, especially the older generation are fond of jade, so jade does bring across a traditional chinese feel. "Jaded" means tired or bored though, so... yeah.
The black looks really classy, but in the context of Chinese New Year I think the original colour scheme would be more fitting. Would love to see both submitted though!
I think should not use the gold color.... you know it was only for royal, or only emperor can wear gold colored cloth. But your Naga have a royal-ish feeling though, not sure how chinese guys will react to that
@Toasty I think you should just use the tradition chinese bamboo hat and "convert" it to a shaolin monk theme. That way you can submit for the bloom festival. You already have the robe down! Alright I finished! DracoMissle by Ghostdetector
Hi Sukotto, the flowers i've painted are Plum Blossoms, not cherry blossoms. Both are very similar, however cherry blossom flowers have a little split in the tip of the petals. The plum blossom is China's national flower and tends to be associated with Chinese new year…
Bit of an update, retopo'd the elements so I can move on with the final sculpts tomorrow. The twig in the hat will have plum blossom flowers on soon. @GhostDetector The monk idea has definitely crossed my mind! In it's current state as a farmer/gardener he can be entered into the New Bloom Festival, as all clothing…
