Behind the scenes + process: Akyuu
This post documents the process of an experimental piece done this year.InspirationI am a fan of the video game series called TouhouProject. When I was in junior high school, I had the thought of making an illustration of Akyuu. At that time, the idea I had was for Akyuu to hold a book while listening to music from a gramophone; complete with a scene of Gensokyo in the background.However, I felt that such a complex layout was too challenging for my skill set back then—not to mention the characters and phonograph in the foreground.
