Snow White Hanbok

After my latest kimono post, a quick hanbok feature. ;P

I just saw this hanbok and tought... This garment... Snow White! XD

Dark blue + cream yellow is such a lovely color scheme! ^_^

Pretty Hanbok!

Little time to post anything time-consuming... 

so here's a quick hanbok feature! ^^

I love the landscape on the chima! <3

Hanbok Feature

My Disney Princess Mulan is in great progress,
and I hope I manage to finish her this weekend! ^^

In the meanwhile, here are some beautiful hanbok for you to see!

Hanbok is the name for traditional korean clothes, for men and women.

The picture above is an example of traditional-looking feminine hanbok.

One of the main characteristics in women's hanbok is the bell-shaped skirt called chima. The small blouse or jacket worn over the chima is called jeogori.

  

 Another characteristic of the hanbok is the one-sided bow (goreum) that ties the jeogori. Also, different from the japanese kimono, the collar of the jeogori is not composed by two layers, but only one (git), with a removable white collar (dongjeong) put over it.

I found these pictures in several sites,
so I can't manage to link the sources, sorry!

 

Hanbok are very beautiful and interesting garnments. 

I'm still learning about it thou, so I hope these basic information 

I've found this far are correct and have no big mistakes!

Mujigae Hanbok

After my happy first try on pixel art in my DeviantArt avatar, I decided to give pixels a go again! This time, a more ambitious picture - a rainbow of traditional korean clothes, hanbok!

"Mujigae" is "Rainbow" in korean.

I tought about animating their eyes, but since there are seven of them, 

I came to the conclusion it would be tiring to look at. x.x

Please enjoy the little details in their clothes!

Wich one is your favourite?

Pixel art is so relaxing, slowly building the drawing pixel by pixel... 

for me, there's something zen in that. lol

Also, I'm finding myself in love with hanbok lately, 

so be ready for some hanbok features soon! <3

Hanbok Girls - Jangmi

Finnaly getting these drawings done...

First from a series of 5 chibi ladies in hanbok
I posted as a sketch a while ago...

She is Jangmi (장미), wich means "Rose".

I apologise for any mistakes in the drawing and (specially) in the writing - I don't speak one word in korean, and I used the caligraphy mostly for aestethic purpose... Sorry, very sorry if it looks terrible!

Her design was heavily inspired by this beautiful hanbok photo:

So I don's deserve much credit for that. ;P

Hanbok is so lovely, I'm looking foward for drawing another one! <3

Hanbok Girls

I've been wanting to draw hanbok (traditional korean clothes) for a while, so...

A quick sketch of some chibi girls in Hanbok.

I'm sorry for the sketchyness, and for the innacuracies I'm sure there must be... it's my first hanbok drawing, and I still know very little about it's history... Althou I'll sure research about it! ;)

I just felt in love with the lovely poofy bell-shaped skirts! <3

And the color combinations are so elegant and gorgeous!
