Lovely lacquer and sculpture works with raden zaiku (mother of pearl inlay) and makie (gold dust lacquer) by Hariya Hiroyuki.
The snail title [デコでん] is a fun pun as “dendenmushi” is a word for snail, while “deco-den” (=decorated phone) designates kawaii bejewelled cell phones cases:
A.K.I. in the bathtub. Street Fighter 6 arcade mode art illustration.
The first time I saw this art of A.K.I. after finishing her Arcade mode many months ago, I was automatically reminded of a much earlier fanart of F.A.N.G by the phenomenal Hideaki. This is the art :
F.A.N.G under M. Bison’s red cloak.
Similar pose, similar colors, similar lighting. But the FANG one exudes strong sensual energy whereas the official AKI art has a more contemplative tone to it. Or at least, it seems that way to me lol.
Anyway, I’m perhaps the only person in the world who automatically thought about that gorgeous FANG Art when I first saw that AKI pic. 💜💜
実はグレタ・ガルボさんにインスパイアされて描かれた作品があります。 鶴田一郎の作品に大きな影響を与えているアール・デコ。アール・デコが流行したその時代に活躍したのが伝説的大女優であるグレタ・ガルボさんです。強く自立した女性を象徴させるような細い眉にシャープな顔立ちはまさに先生の描くクールビューティーそのものでした。是非彼女のような女性の作品を描いてみたいと思ったのだそうですよ

Did you watch the special talk between #V (#BTS) and #MeguroRen (#SnowMan) today on the 21st (Thu)?❣️
The plushies of myself ⏰ in their hands were decorated by the #MezamashiHandicraftClub with their respective puppies (Yeontan and Moko)🐶
They used felt to match the colours of the puppies👏
Thank you to all of you who noticed~ 🥰
This is the .96 Gal Deco, a weapon that's all adorned with rhinestones.
Use your Splash Walls to keep an advantageous distance.
When the time comes, dive in with your Kraken special to turn the tides of battle!
Shelly and Donny are twin tadpole shrimps who run Ammo Knights, a weapon shop that also has a branch in Splatsville.
It seems that after Sheldon's love for weapons imprinted on these two, they became his apprentices.
These little ones will do their best to explain the weapons!
SplatoonNA:
SRL HR dept. with an org-chart update. With Sheldon working in Splatsville, his protégés, Shelly and Donny, now run Ammo Knights in Inkopolis! The little cuties really look up to Sheldon, so don't be surprised if they seem familiar. They clearly share Sheldon's love of weapons!
SplatoonJP:
彼女はイソギンチャクの「アネモ」。
アタマ屋「おかしら堂」のバイトさんだ。
最近ゴシックメタル系のバンドにハマり、服の趣味も少し変わったようだ。
ゲソタウンの運営やブキをデコるバイトなどをかけ持ち、稼いだおカネは全て趣味に使っているらしいぞ。
そばにいるのはクマノミの「クマノ」だ。
SplatoonEng:
Annie, a sea anemone, works part-time at Cooler Heads.
Having gotten into gothic metal music, her fashion sense has changed a bit.
The money she earns goes towards her hobbies, like managing the Splatnet gear shop and decorating weapons.
By her side is Moe, a clownfish.
SplatoonNA:
And here are two familiar faces—Annie and Moe from Cooler Heads, the Inkopolis headgear shop! Annie has leaned into her love of gothic metal and changed her style. She also moonlights as a sysop for SplatNet and adds decals to weapons on the side. As for Moe? Still a clown fish.
