This is my last minute entry for the "Otaku Fashion" challenge hosted by byakuyarox1.
What you see is a drawing of myself, as an anime character. I am dressed as Judai Yuki, as he appears in Season 4 of Yu-Gi-Oh GX.
To be honest, it took me awhile to decide on what my pose should be. I decided to use Sailor Mars as an inspiration, thus achieving my goal of a dynamic portrait.
The weapon is a flame bow and arrow attack, based on Sailor Mars' "Mars Flare Sniper". The background effects are a combination of gradients and textures to enhance the visual impact.
It took me awhile to do this. I drew in pencil at first, then traced it out in pen to outline the pose. Finally, using colored pencils, I was able to complete it.
Hope you guys enjoy the drawing. I had fun drawing it!
Dedicated to MilanaMill who is a talented artist here on theO and a good friend of mine.
