Description Next in my series of portraits of my beloved characters in Disgaea: Hour of Darkness.
Innnnnnnnnntroducing Miko, the Shogun (highest level of Ronins)! She's currently equipped with an Excaliber sword, but at the time I drew this she was using a.... uh, I think it's a Diabolic sword. My ninja has inherited that sword, and Miko's was upgraded.
Yeah yeah I know the background doesn't really "fit" the cel-shading, but I don't give a f*ck tonight. Too tired and pissed to care, really...

Next Disgaea portrait up: the infamous (and quite adorable, in spite of himself) Overlord of the Netherworld, Laharl! Stay tuned!
...I feel like I'm doing one of Etna's " next mission" annoucements, now...

She looks more like the Shogun! And I love the pic by the way.

The background isn't really screaming 'cel-shaded' or anything, but I think it suits the character. Japanese artwork in the background, with a heavily Japanese-inspired character design and all Good job on the character as well, so it doesn't sound like I forgot about it It just looks a little odd to me because I'm used to seeing the really chibi one you get in battle that doesn't seem to have a nose.

And yay for Ronins! They're probably my favorite Disgaea character class design... erm, not counting uniques like Laharl or anything. Argh, am I even making sense?

Ne, you like the background? I wasn't sure if it really "fit" or not... I had fun making it, though. ^___^

Ah, the splendors of 145K damage a hit.
Great job, especially since Disgaea rocks.

YAAAAY Another Disgaea fan!!

Oh yes, Ronins are just fantastic... But Majin are better. I just unlocked my first Majins!
I just uploaded an artwork of Laharl for Valentine's Day (oh, the irony!!!) I'd love your feedback!

I still like your colouring style! How do you do that? I can never seem to get my shadings right.

Ehhh well, I just study other artist's cel-shaded artworks here at devART and on the 'net, and I always ALWAYS keep my light source/direction in mind.
Dunno if that helps. Let me know if you want more in-depth explainations! I'm happy to help!

Thank you! All of the black on her hair is actually ink, I inked it before I scanned it in. Whew. That ruined one of my pens...

Can't wait to see Laharl!

Isn't Etna hilarious??? I tried drawing her before, but I can't get her silly ponytails hairstyle right. :S Laharl's hairstyle is difficult enough with his two weird sprigs of hair defying gravity...

Yeah, Laharl's hair is weird...
But I prevailed! I just uploaded my pic of him. Yay!

Yummy goodness! This is even better than the last one you posted!
Awe, with her ear down like she looks so so sad and I want to push them ear back up and kiss her cheek to cheer her up.

bishie-keeper In reply to midsummertiger [2004-02-06 17:53:44 +0000 UTC]

^____^ I left her ears "down", sorta, to show how serious she is. She's a great monster-butt-kicking girl who takes crap from no one! She's all about pure damage, baby.
However, I'm sure she'd love a kiss on the cheek before going to battle!

Thank you! I can't take credit for the design. though, as Miko is a character from a game. Disgaea: Hour of Darkness ROCKS.
