I spent a great deal of my energy on these MEIKO submissions, so I thought I'd make a post commenting about the designs I made for this contest! 初音ミク×グッスマ イラストコンテスト　3rd

The theme's "Vacation" and I had a lot of fun imagining different MEIKO's throughout the scenarios.

crunchy layer breakdown gif + explanation + process vid under the cut if you wanna watch me ink and flat for like 4 hours but sped up 50x speed

i feel like this is the kind of illustration (perspective, detail and bg heavy, lots of light sources and tiny parts) which people can feel really intimidated by...at least its something I definitely used to feel intimidated by when I was a more green artist. but i want to show that its really not so complicated when you break it down into its parts...! hope this helps someone.

Persona 2 character design guide:

As a companion guide to my P2 Persona guides:

http://artemis-maia.tumblr.com/post/94942075683/here-comes-the-second-part-of-the-p2-design-guide

So here are the people who influenced or possibly influenced the P2 characters (I also added three Be Your True Mind characters with Brown, Yuka and Yukino two of them did return after all).

Maya Amano – Miho Nakayama They look very similar (in fact the right picture of her looks exactly like Maya in the EP opening) and Nakayama is a classic beautiful Japanese woman who acts, is a model, sings etc. Maya was certainly influenced by women like her.

Lisa Silverman – Olivia Lufkin Since Muses are basically like D&D Lisa was probably influenced by Olivia especially since Olivia is half-american. In this picture Olivia has a similar hair style to Lisa and she was also the main vocalist.

Eriko Kirishima – Sayoko Yamaguchi This is pretty much confirmed since Sayoko was also a model (one of the first asian models to be featured in top fashion shows) and has exactly the same face and hair style.

Eikichi Mishina – Visual Kei style in general

Ginji Sasaki- Tetsuya Komuro Same backstory (one hit wonder who became a manager). Komuro also managed hitomi who sang the IS ending song and also worked with Olivia Lufkin.

Daisuke Todoroki – Akira Nakao Nakao not only looks like Todoroki. He also played Kosuke Kindaichi (famous fictional Japanese detective created by Seishi Yokomizo, also mentioned in Meitantei Conan) in the movie Death at an Old Mansion (Honjin satsujin jike).

Tamaki Uchida – Yuki Uchida Same hair style, face and last name. Tadashi also liked her a lot so Tamaki was designed after her.

Steven Silverman – Steven Seagal Also obvious. Seagal also lived in Japan for years.

Chikalin – Tomoe Shinohara Tomoe is known for her flamboyant fashion sense and she is an actress and fashion designer. She is said to be a goofball.

Baofu – Ozzy When I saw Baofu for the first time and saw the hair style and shades I immediately thought of Ozzy.

Brown – Tsunku Tsunku is a song writer and producer and Brown kinda resembles him.

Yuka Ayase – Gyaru /Kogals in general Since Amuro Namie promoted the style I included her in the picture. Namie also became pregnant with 20 years and is said to have “increased the amount of shot gun weddings” in Japan. This explains why Yuka is absent in P2 and why she became a houswife (and probably pregnant quite quickly).

Yukino Mayuzumi - yanki Yukino was a former yanki (delinquent youth). I chose a picture of the yanki Ichiko/Ichigo played by Tsuchiya Anna in Shimotsuma Monogatari (one of my favorite movies, I laughed so hard XD)
