Description Some of you may recognize this from Gackt's Moon and Crecent album inserts. I've had the sketch sitting in an old book for months now and something the other day possesed me to finally get around to finishing it.

And before anyone who knows me well makes a comment about it being purple, so was the inspiration.

I don't normally say this, but please full view. Even at that size, a lot of detail is sadly lost.

Detail of the upper body - [link]

Medium - Photoshop CS

AWESOME!
When I first saw it the background reminded me of Naraku's miasma.
I think the purple give the picture a really cool effect!.

Awesome! It's been a while since I've gone on here and checked out your art, and I say that you've gotten better. o_o Everything looks so smooth n___n

shuu-bunni [2005-05-12 20:07:53 +0000 UTC]

Very nice. The purple hue makes it really stand out, especially with the red blood and the golden eyes. The way you half-covered his face also adds another nice effect. The only thing that kind of looks off is how the sword is shaded. Metal should be shaded a bit more smoothly then jaggedy, or else it'll look somewhat like fabric or something. Unless, of course, you've meant to make it look indented, but the jagged strokes would need to be a lot shorter then they are here.

man, I dont know what I'm talking about. <3

Actually, I was shooting more for the fang look on it, since it really is supposed to be made from a tooth. The movies tend to make it look more metalic, but the series has kept it more of a tooth color, so that was the look I shot for.

Ah, I see ^^ It's an interesting approach to it. Most people just stick with the bladeish thing( I know I would)

fala1385 [2005-05-12 11:54:11 +0000 UTC]

You made his ears fuzzy! XD *pets fuzzy ears*
I really like his eye as well
Only complaint I would have is his sword looks kind of round? (that may not be the right word, but I hope you know what I mean )
But it's awesome still

dusks-witch [2005-05-12 11:34:28 +0000 UTC]

Wooooo~~~ Very pretty!! I think the purple accentuates the image very well, giving it a dark, surreal look. His eyes glow. And I love the expression and position. Gorgeous work!
