Description Epiphany
A Poet. A Mother. A Romantic fool.
Epiphany is the mother of epitaph. And she is famous for her romantic poetries. She was first established her career as a geisha, and managed a group of beautiful women serving the finest food and wine for those seeking company of heavenly female presences. Though, it changed everything when she fell in love with an anonymous ninja who had great smile, and became a mother of a child.
Epiphany becomes only intangible memories among ninja of old school, who ever touched and moved by her charisma. She became a legend among the Romanists.


Story of "KEEN," A Ninja Talkshow concept.
Concept and Lineart By HOON
color palette and Painted by JUJI

NINJA TALKSHOW (part of Project KEEN) (C)MESS STUDIO
-----------------------

this particular character design concept was the first of its collection. which now have grown into more than what you can count with two hands.
Me and talented Juji have evolved its style so drastically on each piece, one of the most recent pieces are quite advanced now, and constituted our own formula.
We are also in early process of develping sequentials using these characters, we are hopful that we can bring the comic book by early next year, in association with Dark horse comics. (im a firm believer that DH is the best comic publisher in the US)
here this is one of a few sneak peek i can offer you, and Im Happy to show you little bit of what we are working on right now. i hope you like it. please look out for whats to come in the future!

Very cool... reminds me of Lone Wolf and Cub, completely flipped and inverted, like an alternate universe / take. That has to be the coolest staffs I've ever seen... love the flower on top, awesome touch. The tribal design in the bg is amazing as well. You are definitely a master... I must this.

Wow! This is awesome. The shading the attention to detail is just on point. I like the use of color in how it gives a warm sense of the character. Color give the impression that even though its a drawing the character feels very much alive. I'm also diggin the tiger and dragon background. Great work keep it up.
