Isawa Koisoby *MarioWibisono

Digital Art / Drawings / Fantasy

"Fire speaks to me. What will it say to you?" - Isawa Koiso

The new Master of Fire from Phoenix Clan. Isawa Koiso is terribly powerful and utterly insane in the same time, a very complex combo for such a gorgeous psycho. She would immolate her own allies in an instant if that what it takes to incinerate her enemies. She is emotionally dead and fire is her only connection to warmth in the world, truly the ultimate pyromaniac.

Trivia: The man that is being burnt into crisp is her own yojimbo / bodyguard. She thinks he is hot... literally

My goodness you've outdone yourself. The details on that kimono and the flames are wonderfully done. The only problem I have is your shadows, and maybe how small the hands are (but i know people with tiny hands). Considering how bright the fire is, I would expect the lower back area to be darker, same for some parts of her back and hair, where it almost looks like they're reflecting light from the viewer's POV. I love how you added the lights from the night/windows though, not to mention that almost sultry look she has through both expression and pose.

I hope you keep drawing these beautiful pieces forever! <3

A triumph, what a gorgeous use of color. It's an enrapturing image of a revitalized concept. The dangerous priestess redone, how wonderful!

The only thing, a nit-picky thing, is her hand placement, the hand and wrist by her mouth. At first look, I thought that the hand on her lips was her left hand, just by the nature of the tilt and angle. But when you look closer, you realize that her left hand is holding the burning skull.
I tried it out at home, and realized that her right hand could indeed be positioned like that but it takes deliberate movement. But, the way her wrist is coming down makes it look like it's her left hand. Unless it's implied she has two left arms?
If not, perhaps watch that next time. It's not possible for her wrist to be like that, though the hand is actually possible to be positioned that way. She'd have to be a bit of a contortionist to manage that position, if she is lucky her! Trying it out at home, I felt a good deal of tension in my shoulder and even then I couldn't get my wrist to place like that.

Other than that, everything's lovely. I want to buy prints of all your work, truly I do.
