inspired after coming back from Japan trip...
it's a god that holds a cloth bag in which it draws wind from, it pairs up with thunder god to guard gates (usually found around Japanese old shrine door ways)

    the feet totally remind me of nightmare......
    the lighting is a little confusing though. It looks like the light is coming from directly above, but he's lit from behind?

      three lights in total, a directional light that lights the overall, the strong light in the back is the rim light, as well as the blue light from the bottom, just to outline him better lol

        no, I understand why it's there, it just feels like the location of those lights in the background is wrong is what I'm saying :) for how he's lit.

          o yah? u think? hmph i donno, coming from the top left right? that's how i perceived it, hence the rim light around the top left of the character?

    I like the rough brush work in your bg adds a best balance in the whole character texture!

    yeah looks cool.  The top sunlight thing could be better rendered though.
