Happy 11th birthday DeviantART!
and happy 22nd birthday, myself!

And for everyone who wished me happy birthday,
I can't reply to all of you individually, but don't feel bad cause I'll just address you all right here!
Thank you all so very much for your kind words!

I'll continue to put up my art works for your viewing pleasure as long as I have breath inside my embarrassingly hairless chest! except for my nipples. they're surprisingly and rather unpleasantly hairy. *mental picture* ...I lost my train of thought.

...Okay, enough about my hairy nipples...

-Picture Description-

Ryo of the Aogawa Clan. (Aogawa = "blue river")
My first design of Ryo was a little too boring.
And I was never really happy about the second design. (the popped collars didn't work)
This third design (most likely the final one), I found to be extremely satisfactory.
Gave him a very practical utility sash with the weapon compartments that attach to the pants legs.
His face changed a lot over the years too. I mean, my goodness, there's no continuity at all!

Anyway, he's the main character for my long cancelled Eledia Project.
It was a Naruto fan-manga project which I started in high school and never got around to finish.
If you wanna know why it was cancelled, you can read about the details here -> [link]
If you'd rather hear the short version, then here it is: life happened.

I've been meaning to wrap up the story in a text format with some visual aid (kind of like a picture book instead of a full-on manga) in an all-inclusive download package, but even that isn't as easy as I hoped. I wanna do the project and the fans justice by not making this download package sloppy.

So here's what I'm gonna do. I'll have the [Part 1] of the download package available by the end of year 2011. That's about as reasonable a goal as I can set.
Until then, enjoy Ryo's new design.
Fan arts are totally welcome.

Everyone have a great day!
