Red Hua Dan by ahobaga on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

This is my entry for the Red Contest: [link] [link] by :icondeadlulu:

Done in TegakiE here: [link]

When I saw the word RED, the first thing in my mind is, I must do something based on the Chinese traditions, because basically speaking, Chinese people love red! And HuaDan in Peking Opera is beautiful with many red thingie, so I drew this.

And I've tried something similar before( [link] ), but was not able to finish that... I am so glad that I've finished this one! ^_^

... The original photo is more feminine... but many of the best Huadans are men anyway. XD
