I didn't originally start this out to be a ghost scene, but as I was playing with the colors it sort of became that... It started as a vaguely Oriental-ish lady out for a walk in the fog. It seems that there's stories of mysterious "ladies in white" in every culture, so it just sort of took on that tone. Especially when I started playing with the transparency qualities of the figure with the gradient and got that spooky transparent quality shading to a more solid feel that made her appear to be floating. So I took that feel and ran with it. That, of course, inspired the half-seen trees and hills in the background, the vague foggy shapes...
Anyway... I certainly hope the kanji does, indeed, mean "ghost." If it doesn't and it means something obscene, please someone tell me... Illustrator CS is my toy of choice lately.

I like how the umbrella turned out. It has a very opaque feel to it, and this deviation looks like something from an old but elegant cosmetics ad.
Ohhhhh the fog and the ghostliness and the UMBRELLA wheeeeeeeeeeeeee.

maybe make the leading trees darker than those behinds... this will support a room effect, you know

I chose this kanji because it did have "ghost" listed as one of its meanings along with "fairy" (although, the reason I asked that if it meant something obscene that someone tell me because, strangely enough, one of the meanings listed was also "semen," go fig
Thanks for the comment and the fav!
Heh heh heh... Exclamation marks are okay, just as long as you don't have five in a row. That is a sure sign of someone who wears their underwear on their head. According to Discworld logic, at least.
Thanks for the fav!
