I love how you didn’t ignore the aspect of him being a rabbit, and actually made the armor look like something a humanoid rabbit would wear, while still making it samurai armor. It’s clear you put a lot of thought into it, and it’s paid off! This looks great!

Samurai Commando

Quick color sketch done between comic pages. One of the Colonel's men, obviously inspired by Usagi Yojimbo.

hey thanks! Concept design isn't my super strong point so costuming stuff like this takes me a long time to figure out. Really means a lot to hear it seems to be clicking with people.
Why commando?
reaganlodge responds:
No big reason, it's just cooler sounding than 'soldier' or 'operator' I think. Has more of an 80s action connotation that I like.
This somehow reminds me of " Alice is Dead " series
reaganlodge responds:
Never seen it, I'll check it out tho!
Aw man something about masks with thin eye holes like that are so cool. This aesthetic of yours is top tier. Other than a comic series I'm wondering where else this would be great in. A stylized Mad Max + open world game?
reaganlodge responds:
Hey thanks Johnnyism, glad you like it! I actually got the idea from looking at old snowmasks used by Inuit hunters, then added some metallic bolts n' stuff to make it look more like something you might wear in a world with swords and guns.
Very creative work!!!

Hey thanks!
