Artist's Comments

Fanart art is my way of paying tribute to a deserving series. The result My own rendition of Youshi or Youko from The Twelve Kingdoms.

It started out as a simple line drawing after which I decided that it was a perfect candidate for photoshop modefication. I worked very hard to portray Youko's character. I wanted for her to appear both masculine and femminen as she often does in the series. I hope I was successful in doing so.

Very nicely done. I like the pose and the expression on Youko's face. It would be cool if you added a background to it. Look forward to more 12k fanarts.

I think you captured the m/f sides of her very well. I really like this picture!

One Piece is life.

98% of the teenage population does or has tried smoking pot. If you're one of the 2% who hasn't, copy & paste this in your signature. <-- look, I'm COOL! I copy-pasted! go me!

Ooooh, this is a nice drawing of Youko!

I like the expression on her face - she looks very fierce and determined. She seems very tense, too, as if she senses an enemy behind her. Her bright red hair stands out very well, too.

I think you've done a good job portraying both her masculine and feminine sides. Youko is such a complex character who truly grows throughout the series, and I feel that your picture of her does her great justice. :)

I really like your renddition of Yoko Nakajima, and yes Twelve Kingdoms really is a deserving series of good fanart. It's just a shame that there isn't very much of it out there.
