Yamagami no Aokigahara is an invention of mine, not a part of Japanese mythology or the Shinto pantheon. Which is to say, that the Aokigahara Forest doesn’t have a god that I am aware of, and even if it did I doubt this is what they think it looks like
That having been said, I hope it does have the look and feel of a Shinto forest god. Please tell me what you think about the many treatments I have given this imaginary creature…
Carol stole my Wow lol.
Ya gotta get up pretty early in the morning to beat Carol
well 2 wows are better than one lol
neither am I picky about the order in which I receive them…
I might even try a few more variants
Loose didn’t poll so well, I will most likely see which one has the best numbers and expand on that design…
I don’t need a poll to do what I like
Would she be a forest goddess? Those horns are very useful for the over all effect of a forest goddess.
I am trying to invent a Japanese forest god. I was inspired by Mononoke Hime
Manga? And, America manga? I am blurred now.
Manga is the Japanese word for comic books. American manga would be a manga style done in the states…
She gets my vote for “Shinto Forest God Of The Week”…
That really should be a thing
Absolutely. Maybe the countdown for it would get a corner box on CNN…
Aoi-chan is the goddess of Aokigahara. She likes moonlit walks and soul crushing despair. She has the power to induce hallucinations and dementia, also she is horny all night long…
Let’s have a big round of applause for Yamagami no Aokigahara!
Where do I start, wow! I love the textures in the piece. The sun is perfectly situated to shine on her “horns” and seem to highlight her incredible eyes. Love her long black hair and how it is draped over her horns. Love it all.
I would like to make that more of a halo effect…
I don’t know much about the genre, but I wish I had drawn that! It is just gorgeous. I fool around with something I call American Manga, but it is nowhere as dramatic as your work.
I call it domestic manga. You say tomato…
