🌸🗡️ It’s been ages since I really drew the character of Mulan. Much like with my drawings of Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, and Young Simba, I refer to drawings of Mulan by Mark Henn. What I find fascinating about the movie “Mulan” is the that it was the first animated movie produced primarily at Disney’s animation studio in Florida. “Lilo & Stitch” and “Brother Bear” were also produced there as well. 🐲🗡️
In 1784, a solid gold seal was found on Shikanoshima Island in Fukuoka Prefecture. It's believed that the seal was created in China and bestowed upon the then-king of Na (an ancient kingdom/state within ancient Japan). The handle/knob of this gold seal is in the shape of a snake and is engraved with Chinese characters. Currently, the King of Na gold seal has been designated by Japan as a National Treasure.

Your tags on my post are so true. They dont care for any asian cc or content thats not animeified east asian sims and its sickening
yknow what's even more sickening? the gorgeous cultures of just southeast asia alone, not yet including the rest of asia
disclaimer: im a malay person from singapore, but that does not mean i am knowledgeable in every asean country and their respective cultures. im very open to learning about them however! please, please correct me if im wrong.
additional note: all of these countries have multiple cultures which means multiple traditional dressings. not to mention colonization also places a huge impact on traditional clothing. i cant put all of them bc... i can only put 10 pictures per post on mobile...
(countries named are above pictures)
thailand
myanmar
malaysia and the natives of singapore (baju kurung or baju melayu)
indonesia (the general kebaya and balinese culture's wedding outfits)
cambodia – the khmer people specifically, correct me if im wrong
