Here's a color study I did of this image a way long ago. I xeroxed the original and used Prisma markers and colored pencils. I touched it up a bit in Photoshop before posting. I'm hoping to do a better render in Photoshop once I have a bit more time.
Wow, this is wonderful! I love how everything about Mulan is scattered through the picture. The sword, the crest, the comb, both swords... so much detail! It must have taken a while to get all that down. And I just love that she's wearing a mish-mosh of her outfits--brilliant!
