Hi! I’m aiming to become a borderless artist, and I enjoy challenging myself to draw characters from many different countries.
This time, I tried drawing a character from India.
My art style is naturally pop and cute, so that quality came through strongly in this piece. In the future, I’d love to explore even more ways to express different kinds of attractiveness within my own style.
The pose doesn’t have a specific meaning, but I was inspired by Bollywood and wanted to draw an Indian man dancing.
I’ve drawn characters from American, European, and African backgrounds before, but this is my very first time drawing a character from India. It’s a new challenge for me, and I see a lot of room to grow.
If you’re familiar with India or know any Bollywood actors you admire, I’d be happy to hear your recommendations.
I’m looking forward to drawing Indian characters again.
They’ll probably stay in my anime-influenced style—and that’s part of my artistic voice!
Many of you have been very kind to me and I've sailed past 100 preorders on my debut romance novel, which I'm overjoyed and grateful for.
I don't believe I'm actually going to hit this benchmark, but just for fun, here's something that I think people might enjoy as well: my next project, titled Jeevansaathi, a crime thriller story of romance, reincarnation and revenge!
If I somehow manage to hit 150 preorders on Dulhaniyaa, I'll upload the prologue of Jeevansaathi for download (:
This time, I drew a character from India.
In my previous piece, my own art style made the illustration feel a bit more pop and cute, so for this one, I tried to focus more on a cool and calm vibe.
I personally enjoy Bollywood dance scenes, but sometimes it’s difficult to find the names of specific actors through Japanese internet searches. I wanted to look at more references, but it wasn’t always easy to find what I was looking for.
However, I received some kind encouragement from @zarastrawberry, and that motivated me to try drawing a character from India once again.
Swiss, German, Canadian and French teams, the music choice is not the problem but I wish they'd push the choreo further than "insert "oriental/Egyptian/Indian" hands and call it a day"
