I am so proud of this piece
Anyway this is my submission for osy057s contest, thank god I got it done in time. Here is her bio. CHARACTERS FULL NAME: Fuuma, Akumu GENDER: Female DOB: Unknown AGE: Unknown RACE: Human-ish HAIR: Black, very long. Normally hidden inside her hood. EYES: Rinnegan, keeps them hidden due to the fact that she can either kill or possess someone by looking at them (uses up at least 10% of her chakra) HEIGHT/WEIGHT: Unknown/Varies (She can change her form as and when she chooses and she can change into whatever or whoever she desires.) BODY TYPE: Half human/snake (normal form) Her true form is a large humanoid being made up from hundreds of snakes (unless she comes dangerously close to using up all of her chakra she cannot be defeated in this form, as any limbs that are dismembered can either be reattached or regenerated within minutes.) Various other forms (Human, animal etc.) SPECIAL FEATURES: No matter what form shes in she has fangs and her eyes remain the same dark blue-ish grey colour of the rinnegan. Also look at the picture, what screams special feature 0.o PERSONALITY: Cruel, evil, blood thirsty, that pretty much sums her up. She likes to play with her food and torment her enemys in cruel and barbaric ways such as using genjutsu to turn allies against each other. Whenever she catches prey that seem interesting to her, shell torture them into submission and make them join her ever growing legion of ninja, even going as far as to rip limbs off and then reattach them with a forbidden jutsu, only to do the same thing all over again whenever she grows bored. Her idea of fun is watching past comrades fight each other to the death for no other reason than to potentially live for a few more hours or torture war criminals. CHARACTER FLAWS: Highly blood thirsty, can drive her into a bloodlust craze. No real loyalties to anyone. Uses and abuses people to her whims. TALENTS: Seduction, tactics and advanced healing abilities. FAMILY Parents; Unknown Siblings; Twin brother Fuuma, Isamu (deceased) Other Relatives; Clan (deceased mostly) HOMETOWN: Unknown, possibly Yugakure. HISTORY: Akumu was the twin sister to one of co-founders of the Fuuma clan, Fuuma, Isamu. She was looked down on by her brother and other clansmen and was only seen as being a valuable asset to her village whenever they were given a mission where seduction was one of the main aims. When they attacked there rival clan the Kuroshi she was mortally wounded during the battle where her clansmen left her to die. However she didnt die from her wounds, when she awoke she was filled with an unimaginable rage towards her clan but knew that she couldnt exact any revenge without the help from a certain man. The Rikudou Sennin. She seduced the Rikudou and with his help attacked the Fuuma village killing most of its people. She finally killed her brother and exacted her revenge but found that it wasnt enough satiate the feeling of bloodlust. Again with the Rikudous help she went on a rampage through the land killing anything that appeared in front of her. The two were finally stopped when the twin deities/siblings from the Kuroshi village defeated them in battle. She escaped the battle though yet again mortally wounded and missing her right arm but found that her body regenerated the missing limb and healed all of her wounds. Knowing she has this almost permanent immortality she set her sights on conquering the Kuroshi clan and then later every other village she lay her eyes on, but being a strategist she knew she would need an army to succeed. She travelled until she found a small village on the border of two feuding nations, the village now known as Yugakure. Once there she amazed the then godless people with her abilities, making herself known as the self proclaimed God of the new religion Jashinism. She amassed many followers all of whom frequently made sacrifices to her at her temple in Yugakure and made offerings ranging from obscene amounts of money to ornate clothing and jewellery. She then rewarded her followers by giving them the sacred scrolls that graned them a similar immortality as long as they kept on killing. All the blood that was spilt with the Jutsu granted Akumu the ability to absorb the Jutsus the ninja knew and gain their knowledge. After amassing a large army of both her followers and prisoners she now has set her sights on throwing the land into chaos once again. ---- Fuuma, Akumu/Fuuma, Isamu(c) Me Now I need to go and nurse my wrist, it sounds like a cement mixer every time I move it 0.o Comments
That's some imagination you have! One of the most spectacular parts is her lower body, and how you have really made it extend from the piece and then curl back into it. The lighting also helps greatly achieving this, but just as you used dark and light to show what parts of her snake body are most forward, I feel the same could perhaps be done with her body, in relation to the stone throne she is sitting on. If you were to add some shadows to the throne, it would help tie her more to the setting. Great profile on her though, she really is quite worldly and thus powerful.

And you're right about the throne and her skin, I would've done more shading but the deadline snuck up on me, you can really see where I started rushing can't you lol. Still it was my first attempt at proper painting in photoshop so I'm still pleased with it, even if I did mess up on the shading. -- Help find Madeleine McCann [link] --------------------------------------------------------- No, I don't think I can tell where you started rushing, because it does look really good.
And you didn't mess up on the shading -- Read Itachi vs Orochimaru here! Pretty much, I'm still working on her character but that part of her is going to stay the same.
