I have really been enjoying doing Okami style arts. They are quick and easy, a nice warm up exercise before I really get into something.
Done freehand with a brushpen, so things look a little wonky.
The first completed drawing of a friend’s character drawn to look like the gods in the game, with his own weapon, a reflector with the fursona’s usual weapon of chouce, baseball bats, attched. The guy also likes dragons, so I did a goofy one on the reflector disk too. AND I used Puffin the cat for a live model. The cats in this house get turned into so much art!
And a gift for Thornwolf. Her australian german shepherd mix character with a glaive weapon, rust and gears for her love of steampunk industrial things, and the iron cross that she wears around her neck, and green tassels because she decorates her place with green everything. I couldn’t find my usual brushpen for this one, so the inking isn’t as nice as I’d like.More to come! Thanks for looking.
You’ve captured the flowing, sumi-e quality of Okami excellently in your work, and adapted it flawlessly to others’ creations. Very well done.
I love the art in Okami, just haven’t gotten around to doing any fanart myself.
These are gorgeous, even if they are simple.
I love the artwork I just have to ask what’s Okami? Is it the style of artwork because I love it. I’ve done a few sumi-e style painting and it has kind of the same look.

It’s a Playstation 2 game with a sumi-e feel–the environments, the characters, all are done in that style and fluidly animated. It’s beautifully mesmerizing and very much ‘traditional’ Japan in its quirks and cultural references.
Yes, you should drag it out again just to play! ^_^ And luckily, it’s a relatively inexpensive buy (might even be a Greatest Hit already).
Sadly, Clover Studio (the game’s maker) is already dissolved and no longer producing games. The members have all gone on to other game projects though.
If you do find it, expect to pay around $40 new for it or I think around $35 used. My friend bought it for me.
Just some incomplete sketches.
I Haven’t seen many drawings of the enemies. The design and story behind each one is amazing. Many are really creepy! This is a wierd multi eyed samurai tengu with fans for wings.
And the last one for a while, one for my friend Balaa (see her awesome art at http://balaa.deviantart.com/).
