"The eyes are the window to the soul."


Could "mirror" be a variation or mistranslation?
Tama again. Did some practice with copics.. and added a few digital changes after I scanned. The original is a lot more brighter and colorful, but when I scanned it some of the colors burned my retinas. xx

I like the meaning of this proverb, coupled with the masks that Tama wears (though he wouldn't really wear an Oni mask; it just symbolizes another part of him)

Some of the shadows don't match.. and his eyes look a smidge too far apart, but I'm really happy with how this came out.

Enjoy! :heart:

Oh wow...

I'm really liking how this character is shaping up. Have you ever watched the series Mononoke (and the three episode predecessor, Bakeneko)? It's very short, only about 12-13 episodes. It's very striking and I think it might provide a lot of inspiration for you along this train of thought.
