Shiryu (aka Dragon Saint Shiryu) is a character from the anime/manga series "Saint Seiya" created by the brilliant artist Masami Kurumada circa 1987. The chara in Saint Seiya are very distinctive (usually cloaked in colorful armor) and I wanted to break them out of their molds, so I sketched a few in attire that is out of the ordinary for them, but still befitting their personalities. I felt Shiryu would make an excellent pirate! Medium used: a simple mechanical pencil and a sheet of white all-purpose paper.
