Hi, It's not official right now, but it's visual research for a large city near (at the scale of small country) Shichimi, Torreya and Wasabi.

Let't bet how long can the paper parasol hold out in the rain! Should have brought a parapluie ^_^

Do you have any references to share to learn drawing ?
I know you have a lot of tutorials, but I feel it is more on how to use Krita than how to draw.
I am looking for some free courses for complete noobs ^^ (in French if possible, but can be in English).

Hey Grub, you are right: so far I have mainly tutorial about how to use Krita and not about the fundamental of drawing and painting (or very few).
I don't feel legit doing that yet. I collect for real here books of method of drawing. And I can really see how they just copy all the same method. If you want to know the common root of all modern method of drawing, you'll find these PDF http://www.alexhays.com/loomis/ 'SuccessFul Drawing' is the best to learn the approach, IMO. I have them as a real books but they are very large, thick, and hardcover.

Oil paper umbrellas were used for thousands of years in Asia, against rain, or sun :-) (src. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbrella#Ancient_Near_East )

The rain is really cool. Can you maybe make small video how you make it?
