Freestyling on Tibetan Exquisite Adornments (and A Spoonful of Procrastination)

So, I started this project back in the beginning of 2013, as my contribution for Anti Denim 666 Frames. Once again, being highly influenced by ancient heritage I planned to create an illustration based on Tibetan traditional culture. Now let me show you how gorgeous these people are:

Those are the women and brides from Khampa, they live at Himalayan mountains and ridges on the western-side of Tibet, next to Sichuan province of China. The reason why they sport those heavy looking of adornments on their attires (besides marriage and other ceremonies) is because they are nomadic people, every winter they have to move somewhere else warmer or to more adaptable places, so they invest their wealth on precious stones (mostly ambers) an have their possessions being as mobile as they are. Their men also sport the same appearance, with fur hats and traditional handwoven fabrics.
