After so very many years, my first childhood anime is getting a forth season called Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card! And today is the premiere!

I'm so excited, but I might not be able to watch it today or tomorrow, since I'm still trying to catch-up with the third season and final movie. I've been re-watching the whole series, since I haven't seen it since I was probably six. And in those times we didn't have Netflix. XD I was so happy re-watching the series, so much so that I cried through the first couple of episodes because the nostalgia was hitting me so hard.



Also, re-watching Cardcaptor Sakura made me realize that it has served as inspiration for a lot of my interests, such as fashion design. My two favorite things in Cardcaptor Sakura are Keroberos and all of Sakura's costumes that are made by Tomoyo! That's why I made this picture because I wanted to make my own outfit for Sakura (and Kero XD), as well as pay my respect to this wonderful series. I think I owe a big chunk of my creative imagination to CLAMP.



Now, the outfit I made for Sakura is inspired by a number of things. It's partially inspired by two of my favorite outfits from the series; Sakura's green fairy costume and blue jester costume. However, the greater inspiration is a very peculiar bit. XD It was inspired by Lord Fawful's boss outfit from Mario & Luigi SuperStar Saga. The guy is such a drama dork, and I love him.



I'm really happy with how this turned out. It started out kind of bad because I've never been great at drawing humans. Thankfully, there are a million pictures of Sakura and Kero to use as references, and I've been studying more about anatomy. I'm glad I can start out the year with something so beautiful!
