Karasu's chin

[yagimazaki.livejournal.com]

I have recently come to a bit of a problem in a project of mine--that being that I have to paint Kankuro's puppet's chin, and I don't have any good pictures of the symbol on it, nor do I know what symbol it is in the first place.

Does anyone have any idea what it says on Karasu's chin, and would you know where to get a picture of said symbol?




Any help would be extremely appreciated.

It looks like it says bird. I could be wrong though, I was never fly at the kanji.

It supposedly says crow, and I found a good reference picture of the symbol--so I guess I'll go with that!
Thanks for your help. : D

It's the symbol for Karasu which means crow or raven.

You're right! I never realized they looked so similar until now.

its his name: KARASU

its a ten stroke kanji, and you can see the stroke order in the image i linked easily, since you're trying to reproduce it

It's kanji for bird. I can probably find a link with a better picture of the character. It's a fairly simple character to write, so once I find a picture, you should be able to paint it fine.
