Oh goood I finished this ages ago, but forgot to upload sorryyy!!
//well my bf is visiting me for the holidays so I was a bit distracted all this time haha ´7` I'll get back to replying in the following days, as well as make a journal to thank everyone for the birthday wishes and presents! And talk about some more things too :3

But back to the drawing now!

Kouji here is an assassin who uses twin daggers. He has them sheathed in a sheath in his back usually, but in order not to hide those nice back muscles, I left the rest out ahem Y///Y
Kouji is also associated with the wind and shadows, especially black feathers, that's why I added a windy night as the bg, and black feathers all around him //I really love it when characters disappear into nothing and in a veil of dark mist and black feathers *q*

Also added the kounais, since the bishie here is a ninja assassin
As for the shape of the background, Kiro suggested to use a diamond shape. I don't get to do these often but I think it worked well with the composition! It gives the picture a more masculine feel?? Or definitely a more "strong" one, compared to a circle shaped bg, in my opinion.

In general, this drawing was really fun to work on and actually very fast as well! Had to change a few things in the end, but the overall working time was faster than I usually take //which I'm very happy about! Maybe I got faster haha, or maybe the abs and muscles were motivating me haha XD

As for the colors, I had great struggle and at the same time incredible fun combining orange and blue But i think I learned something out of it! I hope it looks ok to you guys as well ;7;

Media  Painttool Sai | Photoshop | Wacom Bamboo
Time  ~30 hours
Trivia: I was listening to TED talks while drawing this omg really fun and educational! Give it a go! They talk about many different subjects and it's a good way to see how presentations are being held in various ways and styles.
