Description Character I've created two years ago. She is pretty much inspired by Akeginu (Basilisk), and Hajime Saito (rurouni Kenshin). I want her to have a cross personnality between these two. I think her name would be Ohatsu.
She is a kunoichi at ease with weapons like Naginata. I have some story ideas about her but nothing very interesting. All can say is that she is neither a prostitue nor a geisha.
If you have any idea about the way to improve the background, you would be welcome.

It's been so much time I haven't uploaded anything new, but I have lost my inspiration these days. I hope it will get better later. I don't know why, but I don't like to show my characters. However I have nothing else to display for the moment.

No, that's only pencil and I used a stump for her dress mainly, and thank you
But I like working with charcoal too.

Aw thats pretty cool. By the way I didnt know you watch Rurouni Kenshin... its the shit!!! Anyways the drawings pretty damn nice... I dont know why but I did find it kinda funny that you said that she's neither a prostitute or a geisha. - it never cross my mind until I read it... I was just thinking along the lines of a kunoichi as well.

May I ask what made you chose Saito of Rurouni Kenshin...? - I would comment on the other person that inspire her but I have no clue about it. ... Seems like it could be an interesting character.

I don't watch Kenshin, I read kenshin, I have the complete maga series
And yes, it is a great manga.
I talk about protitue or geisha, because kunoichi often hide their identity to approach their target and kill thm easier (with poison for example). A,d geisha, I don't really know why I mentionned them.

Saito has got so much class and he never loses his time with futilities. I'm not really sure of the way I want her to be.

O really? Im envious cuz I would like to read it as well. The manga way better than the anime. Curse you! LOL JK

Yeah thats true but its not like they engage in the act. The target would usually be dead before all the clothes comes off.

I see... hmm that makes me wonder then who your favorite character from R.K.

Fav characters, I love Kenshin and Aoshi. Saito and Shishio have so much class. I also like Kyosato very much, his death were so sad!

Its very hard to choose cuz theyre all cool in their own way but mine would definitely be Shishio & Sanosuke. Saito pretty badass as well & I kinda really like Soujiro. - haha just notice all the name haves start with a S.

Hanoko In reply to Blood-Banker-J [2009-03-15 07:24:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah there are so many badass characters.
But it is pity that the female are not as cool. Misao is funny but she shouts very much while she is not strong. Kaoru were amusing at the very begining but she got weird after. Megumi, has a good personnality but she is not very useful in the story. Yumi, nothing special about her. Tomoe did not moved me. Nothing else to say about them.

I like Yumi the best cuz that Shishio's girl & she understand him a badguy so she cool in my eye. Yeah I do agree with what you said too.

Pas mal la pose. Elle est aveugle ou elle ferme juste les yeux comme ca?
Bravo sur la lumiere sur le kimono, j'aime bien le obi aussi.
Sinon j'aime bien la teinte jaunatre du dessin, ca fait vieux truc, un peu parchemin.

PS: j'aime bien la précision: "c'est ni une pute, ni une geisha"

Hanoko In reply to Manwe-Varda [2009-03-06 19:18:52 +0000 UTC]

Nan elle n'est pas aveugle c'est juste qu'elle a été prise au moment où elle clignait des yeux (j'ai un appareil photo terrible)

Hum hum bon bref. C'est en augmentant les contrastes que c'est apparu, ca rje l'ai fait sur mon carnet à dessin dont le papier n'est pas tout à fait blanc.

Remarque que je fais bien la distinction entre pute et geisha contrairement à beaucoup u_u

Je vais le lire bientot. Je te conseil quand mm le bouquin de Mineko Iwasaki, c'est elle qui a été "interviewé" pour Memoires d'une Geisha. Les 2 livre sont assez proche mais elle dois corriger certains truc puisque le livre parle de sa vrai vie, c'est donc moins romancé je pense.

I have so many unfinished, under-construction, characters as well. I should go back and contribute more to their back stories and such. Ah, whenever there is time...

I really like this character, though I can't say I was ever familiar enough with the Rurouni Kenshin and Basilisk series to know what you mean of her personality. I like her overall design though. Keep up the great job and I hope to see more of this character in the future!

Hanoko In reply to DRa90NBoi [2009-03-06 09:06:11 +0000 UTC]

Akeginu is both a kunoichi able to kill heartlessly and woman very thoughtful towards her close relation. What I particulary love is her demonic face expressions.
Saito is also someone able to murder coldly and he is able to do anything to reach his goal. He has no reliance in the government of his time so he can do anything he wants.

That's a very short summarise of these characters but it gives an ideau of them.

Thank you for the interest, I might draw her more.
