Gaddamn, you've improved a lot in a relatively short time, seriously if i didn't you posted this i definately would've thought a different artist might've done it.
I don't think a wooden chair would be a great item in a bathhouse. First you get wood rot and then splinters and when you think about it it's probably very painful to use that chair there.
owww....splinters.
You really have improved...though I haven't commit much on pics in a while so i'm being over zealous. Good sport old bean.
Shadow - That pic was indeed inspiring somewhat for this pic. As well, there was one I found on Deviant Art of a girl tied to a chair that I also used for reference.
