Description My newest OC, Yuuga Yomi. Done Amano style. Kind of...

Damn, the colours here are stronger, but the real-life one is still way better.

He doesn't really have that much hair, but it is that long.
And he should look a bit manlier, but Amano's guys are too pretty not to emulate.

I SUCK at cloth folds. -_-

So for the whole 'super original character' bit, he's a king who is pretty much a tyrant. Yay.

Origins of name: Well I went onto a japanese-english translating site and got 'Yuuga' when I searched 'elegance'.

And Yomi, apparently, is the land of darkness and death in japanese mythology.

Please, I beg you, don't think along the lines of, "Oh my god an OC. I can't possibly say anything constructive seeing as I don't know this character."

I LOVE it, this hybrid style looks both like Amano and yours.
Amazing colour combination.

Oh yeah, he could oppress my civilisation any day of the week
His name is so very fitting, he's elegant to the max.
And I want his HAIR! So flowing and sofffft.

I fear there is nothing constructive I can say, nothing needs to be said.

I love it! The kimono is beautiful. The tops of the white part look stained with ink. And I love red+blaaack.

You are an artist of many, many, perhaps too many talents.

Totally thought he was a lady from far off. Like, oh shit. Those are not boobs. XD

Try giving them short hair and pants.

But no, seriously, he is LOVE.

Goodness a amano style work surely I love it. I would like to see you experiment with different line pigments though. Faded pigments alongside semifaded colour. Like this - [link]
Though he does use several dark tones throughout his work I would love to see you experiment more with light colours with your amano works.
Though don't get me wrong I adore the strength in this image. You really do get a feeling that beneath his lovely exterior he's bubbling with evil intent. :]

Thank you so much!
Yeah I'll definitely have to try those lighter tones. I love that technique. ONE DAY. When I feel I can tackle it well enough. XD

Not a problem. I'm a Amano fan myself so I love to see people try his style. :3 that pic I linked you to is my wallpaper. I love it.

like the kimono and how he wear it. also the colors you couse are nice for the picture.
I saw also your OC on the Arte Meme ..there he have a bit nicer hair. maybe it is the difference with pen and pencil.. sometimes a pen is difficult gave structure and fine line details.

Yeah, in the meme he had straight hair, but now I'm not so sure I liked it as much. Also I probably have too many characters with straight hair, so now I guess he's breaking my mould. XD

I really like his outfit. And his pretty shiny hair. But mostly his outfit...the ink makes it look very silken.
The bit of pink on his shoulders and around his eyes is also a nice touch. <3

that is one awesome OC * 0 *
I love the colors.. they're really stark and work well with the fact that he's a tyrant (in my mind at least..)
it reminds me of blood and ink >: )

french-teapot In reply to prismchan [2008-08-25 18:34:04 +0000 UTC]

lol That's great 'cause I did do it with ink. No blood though, unfortunately, since it would have been very apt.

Thank you!
