Description
Haudi!Please! Do not copy, alter, Distribude or use any other ways as your own!
Amaterasu rushes to defeat twin demons Lechku & Nechku and to prevent Ezofuji from freezing.
I'm almost done with one of the biggest commissions I have and for celebrate that, I finished Okami fanart that has been sitting in my files for sometime now. Also it is nice to draw some Okami fanart again. I also found Original soundtrack of the game (again) so you can kind of blame it too.
I really loved working with this althought it was about 10 min for a day xD at the begin that is.... I didn't forgot Issun this time so no complaining anymore! btw __ I have always loved thunder edge so__finally i got to draw (failure) one EDIT: So... From the critique I resived I read that there was some serious mistakes in this image, so thanks to , and , I have done some fixing here and there.
Example:
- snow is now flowing fom left to right, to make it look more like Amaterasu is running.
- Amatearsu isn't "attacking" issun anymore.
- Amaterasu's right front leg fixed.
- Sun is now smaller
- Amaterasus Tail fixed
- Trees in the BG have now more details on them.
Done mostly with Paint Tool Sai. Edited in Photoshop CS3

Before I do my brief speech about this, I want to say this is an amazing piece of art. The flow of the snow is perfect to show the desirable running look. Now for a little minor details that aren't of any real importance, but just what I've noticed. I think the back left leg is a little too far behind the right leg since it is running and they could be a little closer together. Also the tree on the side of the hill is bugging me a little. It looks like you've put the main trunk at an angle, with a little too much root showing. Also what I believe is a tree behind the sun in the corner could be a little more outlined to show some significant object there. Overall this is an amazing piece, I love the shading on the body and the pattern of fur, it's more realistic then many other pictures I've seen.

I have to say, I spent over 140 hours in this game with my first run-through (*shot*), and this piece fits in wonderfully! The way Amaterasu is jumping out at you with that fierce pose is simply and truly amazing. The aggressive expression that she has on her face screams 'BACK OFF!' and it really does look like she just killed those twins (: The added moon in the background really ties it together as well. Nothing is ever truly original, but this one scores nicely. I've never seen a wolf in this pose before, let alone a god. So points for that! The way you color things is amazing (: Especially the shading in the back part of Amaterasu. Though, most of the light seems to be directed at the front, and I see the light source would be mostly in the back. Even though this is probably for effectiveness, and made the most sense when drawing to create a center on Amaterasu, could there have been another way to present the elements with a little more sense? But, if I am missing something, or looking too deeply, please forgive me e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/a⦠" width="19" height="19" alt="
Hope I could be of any help! Most of this seems like I'm just gawking at your art, eh? Well, a little love isn't that bad *shot*

Snow is a good excuse
And no problem! I'm not near your standards as an artist, but I certainly do know wonderful art when I see it

I love anything Okami, so this caught my eye straight away. I adore your cell shading skills on the fur and I like how you've drawn one of Ammy's other weapons instead of the solar retribution one.
Without reading the artist description I first thought Ammy was trying to eat Issun or something. Perhaps I'm stupid for assuming that, but I think it lies in her pose.
It's not clear to me that she's running, I think back foot should be flicking up and it would be better if her tail was flicking out behind her. It would better give the impression that she's running full speed after something.
Also if her head was up I think it would tell us she's focused on something more distant, to me it looks like she's looking at Issun.
Her ankle swirly things are supposed to much smaller and it seems her other front foot is missing it.
The trees bother me a little. In comparison to the rest of your artwork, the trees looked very rushed and the second one hasn't even got detailing.
I really like how you've done the snow. But just a suggestion- if the snowfall were angled the opposite way it would also better give the impression she's running fast. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="
I know whenever I recieve a critique, sometimes it comes across as very harsh, I hope you don't feel discouraged or hurt in any way and I'll be going through your gallery now to check out the rest of your brillant work. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="
Well done. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/c/c⦠" width="20" height="20" alt="

Wow! The trees really 'pop' now.
Moving Issun higher was a good idea as well.
It looks fantastic.

That I must say is fantastic, it's like I can feel the intense atmosphere just by looking at this picture; you've really caught the scene well, I remember playing through the game this part was probably one of the scariest, since those owls scare the crap outta me, but also most intense.
I find your way of creating snow particularly amazing, especially around Amaterasu's paws, you've done a great job creating a real snow-effect, so to speak, that makes it look more real.
Also I'm really impressed by the colouring; Issun and the moon especially is very eye-catching with the glow-effects that make them much outstanding, as well as the lighting bolts you've created around the sword.
Ammy, I can't find words to describe it; the fur looks so detailed, both with the ink and the tattoos. And I gotta say her expression is very fitting! I know for certain you'd be my number one choice, as creator, if there ever was to be created an Okami cartoon e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="
I don't want to seem like a complete and utter ass-kisser but I have to say I can't find one bad word to say about this piece, I've yet to see anyone create such fine work despite you begging to differ. It's also very original, as far as I'm concerned nobody has created this particular scene before. You have my respect and thanks, I'll hope to see more Okami-art from you in the future.
Keep up the incredible work! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="
