Hagoromo Tennyo


It's been a while, but we're finally getting back into this one.  Did the head dress to cover more of that old tattoo, the jewelry, and started the sash and the wings.
The blue and white so far in the wings represent 2 of the five imperial, or auspicious colors.  The others are yellow, red and black.  In doing research into this type of feathered rode, it is stated that the wings are adorned with these five colors, and I have every intention of finishing them out according to tradition and give it that extra symbolic oomph...
I will give a more detailed explanation as to the meaning of each color in another post...
