Description I'm so happy! >_< It came out just as I wanted (almost)!

I played around with black s'more, and voila -- contrast. <3

I'm so happy with her hands too. I always mess hands up (and yeah, her arms are supposed to look elongated -- trying a new style). Anyway...woo!

I like the white on black look, and the pattern parts look almost batiked. Great expression, too.

Thank you.

...Though, I'm not familiar with that term -- batike? Indulge me?

batik is a way of dying things using wax that gives dye resistance to shape-areas in fabric. The cloth is dyed one color until satisfactory, then other areas in the cloth are waxed to retain that color, and the cloth is redyed another color. Not exactly what's shown here, but I have a butterfly batiked lava lava that my parents brought me from hawaii, that has intricate colors in parts of the wings.

Here's a site:

Batik

They have a lenghthy definition, including where Batik was first done, what kinds of cloth are used, modern techniques, etc.

Hmm This is a style I like. It reminds me of many inlayed tables and such from okinawa. The depth of it is especially similar. I like the simple colors as well. They make certain aspects seem mysterious.

Awesome.
