Description First assignment for my Character Creation class, which was essentially "do whatever you want." I tried to portray some sort of Ganesh/Dionysus-like demigod of merriment from another universe. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Cool design, he reminds me of a tardigrade. I'm definitely seeing the Ganesh influence in him, you've definitely got that jolly Saturnalia-personified look to him.

Is it an anthro waterbear? Looks like it. It would be a god if one was human size. Surviving in space for hundreds of years? Sounds pretty godlike

looks like influenced by the radish spirit from spirited away. but, hey, you gonna get influence, get influence by the best, right?

i love the happiness gods, all religions. they are my faves. there's just so much peace and serenity with them. and i love the idea that this one is saying "want some?" so inviting.

wow, he's awsome. it is a he, right? ah well, irelevant.
i love the whole continual eating concept, it think that sounds like an amazing concept for a god, like a god devoted to indulgence or something (i'd join that religion!). the ribbons add a really great touch, their liveliness and own directionality make him look more ethereal and important, rather than just looking like a seriously scary fat thing! it's really confusing how alone he is such an intimidating image, but the soft tones and colours that you have used on him really make you have a double take, and now i don't know wether he's an all loving god af abundance or an all consuming god of... consumerism? either way, i think he's an amazing crteation, well done!

i'm scared that if i put this in my pipe and smoke it then i'm going to have a very strange and hallucenatory few days!

I'm firmly in the "gods should look strange" camp. I love this. It is not easy to design things that look complitely alien yet feasible and cool, but you sir, you pull it of perfectly.

*tries to smoke but dies* Kinda reminds me of the radish god from Spirited Away. That thing is bizarre. But still very good. Creative too. I like the pudgy arms with the skinny fingers. Neat contrast like that. Nice work!

It could be a Final Fantasy character.

Of course, the character on screen would look only vaguely like it, in the Final Fantasy tradition (at least when using Amano's designs)...
