This is the start of my Japaneese Sleeve. There are 3 Koi's with peony, cherry blossom and water mixed in too.
I still cant decide to go for colour or stick with mostly black and grey. Any ideas or suggestions?
Only 4 or 5 more hours to go. No pain no gain.
Looks like a great start. I myself prefer black and gray. With something like this though, you should perhaps consider doing up most in black and grey, and choosing a few key objects to color, like all of your cherry blossoms mixed throughout the sleeve.
