Own Stuff110
Started this project a little while ago, feeling inspired to create something Samurai-esque, but my mind was kind of on demons. Figured I'd combine the two. Started with just a character and later imagined the background around it. Wanted to mix futuristic neon with some classic features and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Not an environment artist, by a long shot, but I figure this is passable! Also; this guy started out with just two arms, but for some reason I kept imagining him with four arms. So I decided to add the left most arm with the glowing marks, as well as the arm across his stomach grabbing the dagger.
The Finished Art.
The Line-art for the art. I hadn't created line-art for the blossoms.
The first sketch for the character. Still only had the two arms in this sketch.
The Line-art for the character. I started with this character first and added the BG in hindsight.
The colored and shaded version of just the character.
