Description
Amaterasu (天照, Amaterasu?), Amaterasu-ōmikami (天照大神 / 天照大御神, Amaterasu-ōmikami?) or Ōhiru-menomuchi-no-kami (大日孁貴神, Ōhiru-menomuchi-no-kami?) is in Japanese mythology a sun goddess and perhaps the most important Shinto deity (神, kami?). Her name, Amaterasu, means literally "(that which) illuminates Heaven". She was born from the left eye of Izanagi as he purified himself in a river and went on to become the ruler of the Higher Celestial Plain (Takamagahara). -WikipediaSO im working on a series of designs under the title of KAMI(Personal Project) [link]
Ameterasu is the first character i worked on and this is only a first draft of her

She is wonderfully beautiful and the face reminds me of Zeiram from the anime Iria! O.o Yep Amaterasu's built to destroy...destroy *puts 2 n 2 together*...umm...*flees*
Amazing!

I love the contrast between the delicate looking mask and the her harder looking mechanical body.

Totally! That one always reminds me of Shirow's wild Appleseed cyborgs.
Especially the mercenary and terrorist guys.
But I love the Japanese style graphics this guy added.
He apparently did it using traditional media... most impressive.
Would be sooo much easier to do these patterns w/ a custom PS brush or something.
I'm rambling.... !

Tsukiyomi, Susanoou, and perhaps Orochi would make a fine addition as well...

I really love this one dude, the face and body gives for excellent contrasts, seen this kinda thing done before but i like how you did yours. Nice how your designs look like a mix of medieval/traditional elements with a futuristic twist.

Heey..really glad you like it man. Some ppl told me that the body is missing traditional elements. I have to agree lol.

This really looks like a Protoss from the game Starcraft. Anyways, it's well done.

Oh, I'm not a big StarCraft fan. Just look at the Zealot or dark Templar. More apparent on the cinematics. It's mostly lookalike beacause of the bracers on the wrists.
