Artist's Comments

Yet another tribute to the character of Jiraiya, from Kishimoto Masashi's manga Naruto. Endlessly inspiring subject for me, it seems. Here, in some extra pseudo-Japanese style. I say 'psuedo' because I really am not that knowledgeble in detail about Japanese culture and clothing and just threw it together after taste, thankyoyuverymuch. This picture was also inspired by the very little I have heard of 'Jiraiya Goketsu Monogatari'.

Based on a pencil sketch, coloured and edited in PhotoShop.
The patterns are made, edited and mixed from free photos of real ones.

The pencil sketch can be found in scraps: [link]
