Here's the final toy design that I submitted to Patchtogether. His hat comes off as another monster that flies around and his arms are removable so you can do your own tattoo design. He needs your votes!

Shenami Tattoo
While I wait for approval, here's the tattoo that will go on the cutie little monster's arm. Clearly inspired by Hokusai's waves.

Psyche's Chest Piece
A more detailed study of a possible chest tattoo for Psyche. As a jilted lover, I think the Hanya mask theme works well.
Psyche's Side Piece
Tattoo design for Psyche's side and chest pieces inspired by a lot of Japanese imagery.

Psyche
My take on Cupid's ex-wife, Psyche. Okay, so in the myth they kind of live happily ever after depending on the version. But in my version, she divorces him. I really like the wave tattoo on her right side. Gonna have to spend some time really designing that.
Dee Dee
More studies of Cupid, Elite Tactical Love Commando and DeeDee, my version of Aphrodite. Cupid's shirt has a cute monkey, Luv Mun, that will make the same expression as he is. I think.
I was going to do more studies of DeeDee, but I really love her aloof expression.
Cupid, Elite Tactical Love Commando
One of the many crazy ideas I've been kicking around on the subway. These are some pretty horrible character studies for a crazy, Shonen-style take on Cupid. See, instead of using arrows to make people fall in love, he kinda just chucks them at each other. Love can be messy and painful. Whubam!

Cutie Tattoo WIP
Clearly, the cutie has yet to get inked. But this is a design I'm working on that I'm hoping to submit to Patch Together. Ideally, his arms would move and the hat would come off to be its own monster. All that's left is to design the tattoo and he'll be ready to go.

Go NaGundam Pinup
So here's what I came up with. No fun action lines. My friends have this awesome idea to create a convention style guide for their wedding and are including some of their favorite artists based on a theme of giant robots, Japanese maples, and girls with glasses.
Might do a color version when I have more time.

Go NaGundam
This is my attempt to draw a Gundam in the style of Go Nagai, the creator of Mazinger Z. It's a study for a piece for a friend's wedding. Hope I have time to finish.
