NiGHTS wouldn't be out of place in ENA
Yeah! I realized it mainly because of both of their home series featuring surreal yet breathtakng landscapes and soundtracks.
why does this remind me of the nightmare sequence from Toy Story 2 where Andy is all like "I don't wanna play with you anymore"
in all seriousness this art kicks ass
Yeah I can see it. I don't entirely remember what the original spark of an idea was other than using scale with Wizeman.
But glad you like it and lots of my other work as well!
love it, I like how it has elements of the poster girl design too (even if it isn't her official design still)
Thank you.
Actually now that you mention the "Evil Eye" thing, I looked on YuugenMagan's page on the Touhou wiki, and in the origin section it mentions this:
"The Judaic angel of death, Sariel, is associated with evil eyes and is said to be able to ward them off. Due to the appearance of Sariel in the game and Makai itself containing numerous references to Abrahamic imagery, YuugenMagan is most likely based off of the Jewish concept of evil eyes."
Makes me wonder if Yuugen and Sariel are enemies. They also have similar health bars, so that's likely the case.
Never actually considered that possibility. It's a fun idea and probably quite likely.
Might be why he had both in there.
YO I LOVE THESE DESIGNS SO MUCH
I posted my HRtP redesigns too but yours are like objectively better. I wanna share my own thoughts on each
Reimu - she looks simple compared to the others but I like how you made her hair black instead of purple
Shingyoku - I wonder why they're koi fish, either way it's neat, kinda wish the male and female forms had their own unique appearances but it's great nontheless
Yuugen - you somehow managed to make them more terrifying lol
Elis - my girl took "turning into a bat" literally, also I like how there's a star on her wing, it's kinda like what I did for my redesign coincidentally enough
Sariel - by far the most terrifying, I love angels and seeing Sariel resemble one of the more eldritch ones makes sense given what she's based on (I believe it's the angel of death and healing?)
Mima - guess this is what happened to her after she got ditched, but in all seriousness she looks neat with the dark aesthetic
Kikuri - I think someone finally remembers she's based off of the Shinto goddess of marriage
Konngara - I love how she's all-red; it's a nice way to contrast Sariel's blue and it shows she's not afraid to whoop ass
I think I hyperfixate on this game too much but I had to type this down because this fucks and I would die for a reskin of the game with your redesigns
ayyy, glad ya like it!
for shingyoku, i was indeed planning on making human forms for both the male and female sides, but i thought it'd be neater if it was just the koi fish posing like a yin-yang
they don't really have much to them in canon anyway, so anything is fair game imo
and i like to take the youkai approach for the characters in the most "non-human" way possible without taking away their identities in the process
I wonder what your thought process for Komachi's limbs were; they remind me of something but idk what exactly
was inspired by the death note shinigamis' looks
but which one is the real nene?
Well never know…
tell me the lore pls
Edited it, there's the lore !
what's better than one Nene?
nothing else obviously
TWO nenes
glad people are finally recognizing this show after years of it getting slandered online
It will always be one of the best to come out of the new era of cartoons!
hyperfixating on the first touhou game like a normal person
