These two are married soldiers Thomas and Sora. They were taking care of their firearms, keeping them clean and well maintained until Sora decided to make tea.
The scene is set up a little stiffly, but I wanted the picture to have a quiet tearoom feel to it. I dont know about you, but I can almost hear the harp music in my head.
I hope you like it, Tommy, I spent a long time trying to get the background to look like a real japanese living room. I used a reference for color and structure, but everything (except the medals) is original.
I got the sense of symmetry when I look at it. I think it's because of wall scroll being the center while the objects beside it, namely the framed medals and the two characters, gave the overall piece a sense of balance.
The kimono looked well done, and I particularly liked the white one. I don't whether it's because of shading or whatnot, but I found the subtle pink to highlight the shadows gave it an iridescent feel. Like, shimmers. What I've also realized that there's shadowing behind the wallscroll, just like proper 3 dimensional hanging of a wall should. Props!
The room overall also made me think of lacquerware. Must be the reds and the black.

Im sorry, since you asked for guns in the picture I just assumed that was what they were used to using.

The latest works of Literature bringing you my own personal choices, works from #Live-Love-Write's latest writing prompt and the fantastic groups of #Mental-IllnessClub and #Xpose-it
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
`TomWilcox is renown for his stunning fractal art. Each deviation is detailed to perfection, beautifully crafted with vibrant colours. Many of Tom's distinctive artworks are award winning and have been published internationally, firmly placing him as a leader within the fractal community. With a friendly nature and an inspirational spirit, `TomWilcox can always be found taking time to leave positive and encouraging comments for other artists.

Nice job.
Truth be told about the characters though, Thomas is of Dutch Nationality and a swordsmen, he cannot handle a gun unless its big and bulky.
The military They both serve isn't the JDF, but the Japanese flag is a nice touch seeing as Thomas prefers living in Japan over his home country.
As for Sora, she's more scientist Material then front line soldier. but the military profits from that regardless.
