Description Here is a concept drawing, converted to a wallpaper, of a ninja character my lil' bro (aka Exo-Kopaka), named Yoru. Yoru will appear in his own game, titled "Black Silhouette" (currently in production), also made by Exo. I drew this based on an old design my lil' bro showed me some time back. But now, the character design has changed more or less. My brother still constantly bugs me about how wrong I depicted his character, heheh.

Yoru is supposed to be a 21st century ninja, so all the weapons he carries exists within this time period. He is equipt with multi-vision goggles (Starcraft Ghosts/Sam Fisher/Hitman 2 Ninjas inspired), A custom HK-MP5-SD (Though I drew it way off... sorry, I didn't use an actual reference for that...), some smoke/strobe/fragmentation grenades, and a custom Japanese kitana.

Yoru makes a non-canon cameo appearance in my ninja game/comic because he travels back in time for some unknown reason (most likely, to stop an alien invasion in the future, but gets warped back in the wrong time instead). He ends up meeting and battling with Ansatsu.

My lil' bro, "C'mon now, who do you think will win?"

If you're interested, take a look at my 'Ninja Concept: Characters' in my scrap section to see the original designs that I had made before.

Edit: I edited this picture... Took some time before I decided to, but I did, heheh. My brother is still complaining that I drew his character wrong, but I just decided to edit the image and not the drawing... Thanx to ~xx0xNEiTHx0xx 's critique, I darkened the legs some to make the front look more dynamic. My brother also realized that he drew the kanji characters in the logo wrong, so I edited those as well. The kanji are supposed to spell out "kuro (black)" and "kage" (shadow).

Name:
Yoru

Weapons:
Advance-custom Japanese kitana
Custom HK-MP5-SD (with sniper mode)
Smoke/Strobe/Fragmentation grenades

Element Specialty:
Lighting (Also, technological advances)

Background Info:
Yoru is a 21st century ninja. He is a descendent of an ancient ninja clan. Now, he is going up against a terrorist organization, coincidently descentents of a rival ninja clan, on the brink of unleashing a nuclear holocaust upon the world. With the aid of advance modern technology and ninjutsu magic, he will prevail at accomplishing his mission at stopping the deadly terrorists.

Yes, and you call him Yoru, despite the fact that he is obviously Hank J. Wimbleton.

Just letting you know, that's not a complement. Comparing someone's original art to characters from series is usually insulting.

ultranic-comics [2006-01-11 08:28:33 +0000 UTC]

Seems like a character straight from splinter cell, but that could be because of the glowing eyes and obvious armament of guns! Great work!

DRa90NBoi In reply to ultranic-comics [2006-01-12 00:56:47 +0000 UTC]

Yea, glowing eyes and guns, very trademark of Sam Fisher of "Splinter Cell". Thanx for the comment (^-^)!

MariP [2005-12-24 08:24:41 +0000 UTC]

Wow, he's really cool! O.O I love that creepy red glow coming from his goggles, and of course, that red aura around him. He looks very powerful... and futuristic. It's actually quite refreshing to see some futuristic ninjas sometimes.
It's wonderful concept! Keep it up. ^_^

Well, my brother wanted his character to be powerful. Yea, ninjas can't all exist in the feudal times, heheh. Thanx and I will try my best to (^-^)!

Wow, great job! The pose is very dynamic, and the glow just makes the whole picture shine (pun intended, lol!).

Heheh. Thanx (^-^)!

I've always wondered how to get a shiny effect, kinda like those used on animes and such, but I guess this way works too, huh?

A very Cool Ninja Dra90nBoy, why you don't try made a 3d model of him?

DRa90NBoi In reply to XAliaIH [2005-12-14 21:30:34 +0000 UTC]

That's be tight, but unfortunately, I don't have a 3-D rendering program on me... besides Auto-CAD, heheh. I'd be really hard to do, even if I tried. So, for now, only 2-D graphics are what I concentrate on.

Thanx for the comment and suggestion (^-^)!

O_O that is so cool!!!

DRa90NBoi In reply to NinjaKasumi123 [2005-12-14 17:22:01 +0000 UTC]

Nah, my bro didn't force me to draw him. I wanted to draw him... and I made it wallpaper size so I could place it as his wallpaper for a constant reminder to work on his game, heheh. I dunno when he'll ever finish it.

Hm... Idea, idea? Maybe, if I get some extra time, I'll draw some more pictures of Yoru. But I also don't want to piss my lil' bro off if I draw his character incorrectly, heheh.

Thanx for the comment (^-^)!

Ayvie-G [2005-12-14 06:42:51 +0000 UTC]

You know he reminds me a lot of Hunk from RE2/4. I think it's the glowing red eyes. Pretty good work.

Not much to critique. I think you need to emphasize the pose he's in more, cuzz his arms could look monkey-long just a bit. Maybe more shading on the torso to push it further back?

DRa90NBoi In reply to Ayvie-G [2005-12-14 17:17:36 +0000 UTC]

Thanx (^-^)! Yea, this character might be reminescent of a bunch of othe videogame characters out there, I'd say, heheh.

Now that you mention it, yea, I agree. I wasn't really concerned with anatomy too much, just a dynamic pose... So that could have contributed in some way. I also remember redrawing the head 'cuz it looked too big for some reason, heheh. Yea, more shading would've worked too. I really need to practice that and contrast more, definitely.

Thanx for the comment and critiques.
