Gallery Update: Tohno Sakuya Primary Sketch

Another character sketch for Touhouhime is now up in the Gallery. This time, the protagonist takes up the stage!

Tohno Sakuya: Ordinary middle-schooler gifted with the power of the Lunar Eyes of Time Perception.

Meet Tohno Sakuya. She’s the elder sister of Tohno Remilia, friend to Patchouli Eltnam Atlasia, lover to Ran Brunestud, Master to Chen, and student to Aozaki Eirin. Further elaboration about her powers and relationships with certain people will come out when Another Dream 4 launches out, so I won’t spoil. About character design, I pretty much tried to canonically pattern Sakuya’s uniform to the ones used in Tsukihime, which worked out pretty well. Everything went into place afterwards, glasses, knife, and all. I forgot to draw Nanaya Sakuya, but I presume a new facade and style will come out, so I didn’t include it here. It might graze another primary sketch instead.

Again, you’ll also have to pardon the crappy scan.

HELP ME, EIRIN!!!

たすけって、エーリン!!!

Whoever did this Eirin supershopped mod of Mikuru deserves a WIN for the idea, and a MEH for the lameness of said mod. I’ll be a prick, so listen up as I enumerate the ways this has phailed:

  1. Frills on skirt was obviously shopped
  2. Hair color change was obviously shopped
  3. Eirin’s hair is braided, not laid down, and it’s super long

Other than that, cheers for outcome. If this was done for real, I’d vomit money to buy it.
