Samurai Meridaby *Skirtzzz

Fan Art / Cartoons & Comics / Digital / Games

When quest time rolls around, Merida trades in her beloved arrows for a sword and is ready to kick some tail. She may be the new girl, but I think she's got enough moxie for 10 princesses. She is the Samurai!
There is absolutely nobody suited for this sphere...which stinks- this is easily one of my top three from the game. So uh. YEP. I wasn't sure where I was going with this outfit- I tried to mix in Celtic themes of hers along with some saturated gradient fabrics from the FF game outfits, and made up a random headpiece to match those. I have no idea. Blah.

There have been a lot of people asking me if they can cosplay these designs, and the answer is YES! The only thing is I would appreciate credit and a link back to my gallery here, and I demand you show me all of the pictures so I can cry over them and die happily- that is all! Thank you so much!

okay, i loooooove this, and the whole series - just found them today - but i just. have a question. why is mulan the warrior and merida the samurai? XD they could easily switch! (i know, i know, japanese =/= chinese but it's closer than irish XD)

BUT ANYWAY, they're both awesome badass ladies!!!

Ahahah the irony of this kills me XD
First of all thank you so much! <3 I appreciate that! :'D
Second- it was Mulan = Samurai for a loooong time- but it really gave folks the red ass. Culturally speaking- and I was really bummed it had upset that many people! So, I made the switch. Wasn't sure what else to do XD *le sigh*

I thought Merida was good as the warrior... but that hair is still brilliant!

*Skirtzzz May 4, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Yea, she was really well set for Warrior, but I had to change Mulan- I was stepping on a few folks' toes, and I don't like upsetting people so- I thought the best trade would be with Merida :'0
Glad you dig the hair still! Haha

How come Mulan and Merida have switched classes?

I miss nothing >.>

*lurks back into the darkness*

*Skirtzzz May 2, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I finally switched them because I was getting a lot of feedback on Mulan, saying it was culturally insensitive to have her in the Samurai class- and I can understand that, so to avoid further issues, I swapped the two.

~SugarSnowSakura May 2, 2013 Student Artisan Crafter

Aw man, sorry to hear that especially when you decided to do this for fun.

*Skirtzzz May 2, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Yeaaaaa, I dunno- It's alright! I don't like ruffling feathers. Trying to make everybody happy.

~FlyingPrincess May 12, 2013

I don't think you should just change something that you have decided freely just because of some cultural matter. who cares what the people think? You should be able to draw whatever.

*Skirtzzz May 12, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Aw yea- well, I don't know- it seemed to really upset some people, and I just didn't like that- granted, a ton of people really liked it originally, and I really appreciate that- it's tough T.T Ah well, just a drawing.
