'Your Warm Arms' - Maiko

Hello everyone! ^__^ I present to you my very first Maiko fanart. The title is from the song "Set the Fire to the Third Bar" because a) that song inspired this drawing, b) it is an amazing song that fits Maiko perfectly (which was pointed out to me by Rawles), and c) I'm just not good at thinking up my own titles.

This piece was made specifically so that I could use it to make a banner for the Flaming Knives banner competition. If you're a Maiko fan and haven't been to Flaming Knives, you should definitely check it out!

Drawn, as always, with my mouse in MSPaint. Background and cleanup done in GIMP. Poses inspired by a "Love, Love" promo shot I've always adored.

PLEASE NO SHIP WARS IN MY COMMENTS, THANKS. ^__^
