I'm Kazeshini - Concepts and garbage

I'm Kazeshini

Hey guys, I don't know how to close my previous thread so I will be posting here from now...

Here's my last version of a Windrunner (GTFO Windranger!) based on some ninja stuff:



And here's my last job (that I finished a couple of minutes ago)... It's a Meepo set based on a hobo:



(Totally forgot about the sack perspective from the front view... Forgive meeee!! XD)

Definitely, drawing in a rough way it's much easier... Not focusing on details and more

Hope you guys like it... BTW, I'm not working with anyone. So I'm looking for a kind soul. Haha!

See ya Polycounters!

That is waaaay too new school for dota mate. Try to think of dota as medieval times or something like that, typical fantasy world and such. There is no place for soda cans and cardboard mate.

My main concern with your WR set is that the symbol you're using seems to be based on this one



which is based in Chinese culture, not Japanese!

i think it's important to be aware of and research the cultures that you're drawing inspiration from otherwise it ends up being insensitive and also confusing aesthetically. However i do like the shape of the cape and the detailing of the shoulders, but would def suggest a little more research!

I'm not sure I see your point about it not being Japanese. Sure ninjas are known to be Japanese in popular culture but there is nothing to say similar styles of clothing were not worn in China. In any case, this is the Dota 2 world, not the real world and it allows it to fit into the China/Spring event.

I'm just saying that the theme of the set could be more on point with CNY and chinese culture! Cottonwings' thread has some really helpful ideas for themes, symbols, etc

I'm back!

Reworked the Meepo concept and now I think he's a "Garbage Collector"... XD



About the symbol, I said on my previous thread that I found it searching for "Japanese Design" on Google Images... This is where the concept die



I'll be waiting for more feedback about Meepo... See ya!

Just passing by to throw this head here... Let me know what you think and I will try to make a full set



(Yeah, pretty low resolution... I know XD)
