Sup dudes? I don't really draw much NiGHTS artwork, however I do tend to do a lot of non-NiGHTS stuff.

My mascot characters, Kasplatza Red, Firage III and Vengeful (in that order). Drawn at crappy work with a ballpoint *lol*

Vengeful again (I have a reason for drawing her so much damnit!) Also drawn at work with a ballpoint!

The first of about a bajillion sprites of Vengeful for a school project - Imma making a 2D fighting game! =D I've got more done, but I've got about 60 or so to do in the next month e_e yay.

Another character from the fighting game, Katerina. She's one of the main characters (Vengeful and Kas are in it but aren't really main characters - my project manager liked them). I designed KAterina based of my project manager's description of her.

Uh.. I'll dump more stuff here as it comes. =D

IT MOVES.

[The wise Kitsune]

That is really cool! I like the eyes O_o

[Maki Izumii]

Aaand here's an update to the animation!
In other news, I stared working on another assignment of mine - A character for UT!
This is the design (those who know me a little will recognize it as my mascot character, Kas- she got a new outfit for the occasion!)

(She also has her hair in a ponytail. I actually think it's a good look!)


What she looks like at the moment (need to model arms, hair, and accessories). A bajillion things I'm not terribly happy with (ESPECIALLY the head) but I'll be working on fixing them over the week or so!

Bummmmmmping up this topic this *shockhorror* MOAR ARTWORK!
Recently, I've been working on designs for a STEAMPUNK/FANTASY RPGEEEEE. I'm gonna be awesome and do all the sprites myself, too
Anyway: Pics!

My OC/Mascot character, Firage III. He makes a cameo in said steampunk RPG as like, the owner of a resturant/inn the main characters always hang out at (also later becomes a playable characterr) in his main story, he's a FABULOUS DEMON HAIRDRESSER =D

Rich, a random homeless punk kid who's grown some WEIRD attraction to my main Mascot, Kasplatza Red. He's actually pretty cool and also gets a random cameo in Steampunk RPG thingo

Random character - doesn't have a name yet

Same as last one.

ditto.

aaand same.

Need to develop them moooore. I also came up with some other characters, including an engineer who accidentally turned himself into a talking schnautzer (who wears a little labcoat and giant spectacles XD), as well as his lab assistant =D

[Maki Izumii]

mooooore:

[ayamemaiden]

Moar comics plz. O_O
What program did you use?

[Maki Izumii]

Manga Studio 3 EX. Very powerful proggie, I love it

[KiloTango]

I really like the guy drawn in blue with the hat and goggles.

Manga Studio 3 EX. Very powerful proggie, I love it

Awesome. Where'd you get it?

[Maki Izumii]

Awesome. Where'd you get it?

there are two ways, really. Order it off Efrontier's site, or.. acquire it via other means. It's quite an expensive program though (but you can get the Debut version, which isn't as powerful but a lot more affordable).

[Maki Izumii]

moar art!

Reubus, my subgen. Well, she kinda just came out one day.. still might change bits and bobs about her design (Its a mix of the sketch TRiPPY posted up and my own ideas. Also learnt to use copics with this *ahaha*
Uhm, for those playing at home, Rubeus is a free-roaming pink gen who loves performing music. Her realm is (or was, I'll update it when I find out more re: new pink) an almost endless grassy field of flowers - the grass and the flowers both being different shades of pink, and edible. She's got like, a hobbit house - it's carved out of a hill. It's pretty neat and tidy because she's usually roaming around a lot more than she is staying at home. Uhm. Let's see.. she's got multiple guitars, each one of them containing a different weapon - the one she's got here acts as a sword sheath. Uhm, thats all for now.

[MidgitLD]

RASPY! *noms on her leg jinglies* Argh, I so need to design Audie.

[Maki Izumii]

She's also a character in Demonguard (original story) now. Though slightly different, design-wise. I think she's going to become another kinda universal mascot character..

[Maki Izumii]

Prevew of a comission I'm currently working on

[Maki Izumii]

Bookmarks I'm doing for selling at avcon. I was going to do more, but I ran outta time

[TRiPPY]

Hahaha those bookmarks are seriously cute XD Cool idea!

[Maki Izumii]

The designs sold well, too- cept Princess Peach and Rosalina. Bah.


My latest bit of artwork- I'm on the art team for a game called 'Skullgirls', this image was for a banner on the new website they're working on at the moment

[Maki Izumii]

moooar art!


A Comission I did - I like how this turned out

An awesome pixel tree that came out of NO-WHERE and took 3 bloody hours. But I love it anyway :|

[Saifer Dracondrali]

lol this reminds me of Revy XD (I like it )
your very good at these, good use of shadow, great sprite btw (he looks so happy when he jumps )
and great character design especially since no two characters look alike lotsa variation.
I look forward to more artwork AND the game.
peace!

[Maki Izumii]

Demonguard artwork I did a while back!:


More info on the characters can be found at my deviant art website

[Saifer Dracondrali]

If you did it awhile back why didn't you post it here earlier!! O_o
You know I love art... ;_(
btw, NICE!
I love your art style and imagination and how you even pay attention to those subtle details that gives the characters personality all on their own!

[Maki Izumii]

hehehe, I only just uploaded them to DA actually, I've kinda gone into this thing where I show my art to one or two people and just leave it on my photobucket. I had a temporary lapse in this today, for some reason. D: Probably looking at all the new subgens that are popping up - some lovely, some that still need a bit of work.

[Handy Candy]

It looks good, Kas I love love love that pixel tree. XD

[Maki Izumii]

Moar Demonguard art! I'm working o nwriting the story and such at the moment, I'm trying to have the first issue done at least by AVCon this year (which is like, July so I've got plenty of time..)

[ayamemaiden]

Nice work on those profiles! Drawing characters looking to the side is hard. Oo

[Maki Izumii]

Actually, I like drawing side-view pictures of people XD It's a bit weird when I draw Vengeful though (ms. Blue-hair in the above picture) because she has no nose.. or.. chin... or any other defining facial features.. just big hollow eyes and a weird mouth

[Maki Izumii]

A bit of character art of Kas, main character of Demonguard. There's some glaringly wrong anatomy in this, but I don't care, that inking is sexysmooth.

[Maki Izumii]

Ohhhhhhgod it's been like, forever since I posted here, ahahaha!

My latest stuff, I'm trying to generate enough fundage to go to AVCon (an awesome convention in a neighbouring state), so if you want a cute gen chibi.. ;D *god I'm shameless*

[Noctourne Wonderland]

How have I missed this? Your work is amazing!

And there, all in one picture, is my favourite video games/characters. Add Link and it would be MY SOUL.

[Maki Izumii]

Ahaha, I sorta forgot this place existed for a while, so this thread sorta sank to the bottom of the ocean.. or something. With cruskits.

Annnd, Link you say? XD I did these for a convention last year. They sold hella well.

[MidgitLD]

>> Once I get a concept for Audie finalized (ie. after I see the little sketchy commission thingy of her old form so I can redux it), I am totally going to commission you for a chibi of her. <3

[Noctourne Wonderland]

MY LIFE IS COMPLETE! Cute chibis are cute.
