Final artpiece by Acotama for their youkai project, based here on Utagawa Kuniyoshi's The Origin Story of the Cat Stone at Okabe. You can find here the presentation of this piece and here the WIP of the big nekomata.

I already share two of those doll monsters (depressed pumpkin ghost / fox-deer-faced discarded hakama), but Acotama made 140 of those creatures, and some will be sold this Winter, so be sure to follow their page if you are interested :D

Once again, Crowley spies the sumo Kinoshin-zeki who happened to be distracted by a nightingale.

This one is based on "Sumo Wrestler Wearing Genji Crests" by Utagawa Kuniyoshi. Your girl did NOT have it in her to do vignettes on the kimono.

If you know kanji, please forgive my atrocious calligraphy.
