Thanks for the sugestions, Steam Ball & Regash. I'll do a few tests before the brushes get to work...
In the meantime, I wrapped this one up tonight: Oni-ni-kanabō!
Total improvisation on the freehand and, after photographing, I notice that the main branch/trunk of the cherry tree would look better if it was more twisted and starting in the middle of the bottom of the kimono (instead of starting on the left). Oh, well... What's done, is done!
Coming up next... Troll? Eldar on Cold One? The much mentioned Nurgle team?
