Gift Art 1

A gift art for Kai Raito (username) cosplaying as the Medicine Seller in Mononoke.

My first manganized version of him was supposed to be his cosplay of Ciel Phantomhive but I had habit of leaving my unfinished drafts, sketches, or drawings on the table near a window. It must have been blown by the wind as next I found it ---- in several pieces ---- was on the floor with our dogs. TT^TT

So, this is like 2 years overdue. He requested for this first time I knew of him and when the cosplay era was just starting to grow in Bacolod. That's when I met a lot of the cosplayers.

Other versions SlackerLord tried out:

The first one was my suggestion. The second and third were her ideas.^^;

Uploaded the lineart and first thumb in our DA gallery. A higher resolution of the lineart can be downloaded HERE.

Commission 1

My very first commission in cash! So happy!!! XD

Got the request from a local cosplayer who goes by the name Banazure (I'm not gonna reveal his real name) who went to POTO-CON (Pearl of the Orient) as Sesshomaru. Fan girls were going crazy after him. I watched how he stood there while his family and friends helped him put on his costume bit by bit..... and it was a lot of bits for the character he went to portray.^^;

He won anyway~

Reference pic for the request.

The step-by-step process (in a way):

Started with the head and hair.

Next, went on to do the killer fur. xp

After the fur (which took me more than 2 hours) I proceeded to do the rest of the body.

And, voila~ Done!

Scroll up for the final output, its the very first image.

Afterwards, SlackerLord and I decided to do something with all that white space.... we butchered it. It looked like this:

We were never good with colors. And digitally ---- well, it always spells D-I-S-A-S-T-E-R. We're going to learn how to...................... eventually.^^;
