#masayoshi tanimura

Wanted to paint a character I haven’t done in awhile and decided on Tanimura! (And our boy Majima haha). I’ve been racking up in my brain who to do next all the time, I end up doing the same characters. XD Mainly because not many are familiar with a lot of them. Part of me wants to do a Koga piece, but then it’d be like “who da f–k is this fool?” Haha so that’s what happens most of the time. Though I’m planning to work on some antagonists next, my favorite. Maybe next year I’ll open requests or something to help with decision making.

A commission for a patron, they requested a remastered Tanimura from Yakuza 4 in a dramatic type lighting ooOoOOoo. Which was perfect since I’ve been trying to do more of these types of paintings.

And now since my queue has finally cleared up I’m pretty much just going to be dedicating myself to personal work for the next couple of weeks. I was thinking of just putting what I’ll do together in some sort of digital sketchbook. Not really doing final pieces since I’ve done nothing but commissions for the past three months haha. So it’s just like a mini vacay?

But my commissions are still open for anyone interested! Portraits, busts, fulls, etc. All the information is located here. If you happen to drop me a line please note that I’ll be starting them up again April 4. Reason being I don’t close my queue cause I figure I doubt I’ll be getting a lot if any haha. So I just leave it open. I’m thinking on doing a sale as well on my b-day. And I still got to update my shop with three prints I’ve been planning. Pretty much it. Yep yep.

Dude streaming is great!!! I’m so productive with an audience lol.

Anyway, a couple stream requests and progress on a drawing I’ve been thinking about for 84 years ahhahghahgls

I’ve been doodling a lot and unfortunately none of it is of real significance ahahahfd;laskfasdlf 

Unfortunately I still have Tanimura brainworms and by extension AkiTani brainworms and I guess it’s terminal and this is how I die aha

Also I finished Yakuza 4 a while back and I am

obsessed

with Tanimura 

Acab and all that but maybe not this one. Well, no, also this one, but in a this dude took all my money in a friendly match of mahjong sort of way, not a this cop is a complicit cog in a deeply abusive systematically flawed and unjust machine sort of way
