Thought I would start this since I get home from school a bit late tomorrow.  Went with a lighter color Kimono since our tribe color is yellow and the symbol on the right abdomen area means strong. Cause we're a strong tribe  |

Explanations
Marcus' Explanation from the Tiger (copied from the other thread): The tiger It's a symbol of might and power that shows up in a lot of Japanese mythology But its stripes camouflage it and make it hard to see so Kanishi (or whatever the hell their name is) aren't gonna be able to see us coming, and we'll pounce and devour them.
My explanation for the Neishi bit: I put our tribe name on the cuffs of the sleeves, so that when our tribe practices our uber karate moves on the hapless Kansai tribe, the last thing they'll see before getting a fist to the face is a giant vengeful "NEISHI" hurtling toward them.

 I turned it to a yellow, from the light and with both combined it gives us our tribe color. I also added a tea set to show some of the culture, and add some extra creativity. |

 Hey Guys!! This is what i did. I just took everything you guys did and made a ''cleaner'' version of it. Also Tyrone, i couldnt find the symbol you had so i just used 1 (the one on the kimono left) that means the same: ''power''. The other one (right one) means ''indomitable; unyielding'' cus thats what we are! We rock!! Lol. For the names thing, i took pictures of us and kinda ''sewed it'' on the kimono and added the names under each face. Its not that big of a deal but i think it looks cool. Also, i added the Tiger Monica had but with a better img. John, im sorry but i couldnt find characters to form our names and im not sure if ''chinese'' is allowed when we are talking about Japan. Hope there's no problem there boy. Same goes for the tea cups. I think is correct to do it this way, |

Season 2 was build a snowman. The losing tribe had an original snowman. The winning was like laptops in it and ipods and out of the ordinary things... I think it needs to be majorly spiced up to win... Just saying.. I dont want to step on toes.

And i already talked to the host about the Chinese Symbols and he said it's fine Again, my kimono was just an idea, whatever you guys wanted to add it was ok for me. I didnt know you talk to the host and he told you it was fine to use chinese symbols in a japanese challenge so i apologize for that. |
