I recently saw Speed Grapher.
Before I continue, Let me say this - GO AND SEE IT. It is seriously awesome and needs to be seen.
Back to the picture. I wondered for a bit what I myself would look like if I was a 'Euphoric' from that series.It was a bit tricky, since one's Euphoric form is determined by their innermost desires. and psyche.
I finally settled on one thing: A Mannequin.
-I enjoy both controlling and being controlled (mostly the second)
-I am physically male, but mentally female (neither gender matches really)
-I also have a severe fixation on the structure of dolls. Not barbie dolls - Ball-Jointed dolls, porcelain dolls, mannequins, etc.
With that in mind, this spawned in my mind. There were a few tricky things about making this bash though:
1: Getting the body just right. The body came from a dryad base, so there was a lot of wood grain designs to get rid of.
2: Smoothing over some spots. I can still see a bit of it, but the dryad body was originally very angular in some places. I purposely left some of the other spots looking angular and odd to essentially make the body look strange and a tad off-putting.
3: Deciding on the gender. Naturally, like all of the original artist's work, a lot of his lineart images have a female subject - this was no exception. But, I couldn't decide if I wanted the final product to be decidedly female, or decidedly male. In the end, I settled for the look of Androgyny you see before you. Perfectly flat chest, coupled with graceful features.
Oh, and if you're wondering about the finger thing, all Euphorics need a method of attack. In this case, with a flick of a wrist, those fingers are wrapped around someone's neck, pulled in towards the hand, and then cleanly snapped in two. And of course, no fingerprints would be left behind.
Not marked as mature since there's nothing showing.
