Description: I'm in the mood to fill requests, which is why I decided to upload a tutorial on this next figure from an anime called 'Ai Yori Aoshi'. I just want to warn you guys that I have never heard of this anime before so the probability of me knowing what it's about is slime to some. From what I gather the anime follows a young adult named Kaoru Hanabishi. He is a loner that has no one in his life because of the fact that all his family members died. After feeling alone and exiled, he does meet up with this one individual again that seems to love him unconditionally no matter what and will do everything and anything for him. Yes, Kaoru knows Aoi because they where once betrothed to one another at one point in time. The reason why they are no longer engaged to be married, is because Kaoru walked out on the whole arrangement. Now this tutorial is going to be showing you "how to draw Aoi Sakuraba" in a real simple manner. As most of you fans know, Aoi wears a purple colored kimono almost all the time and in this drawing you will be recreating her wearing this very same thing. She is also holding a parasol, with falling pedals of cherry blossom blooms. I know she may look complex to draw, but the truth is, she is going to be rather simple. I know you will enjoy this lesson on drawing Ai Yori Aoshi characters like Aoi here. I will be back with one more tutorial for you all so stay tuned in to see who or what it will be.
