This piece is very old. I hadn't planned on posting it, but decided to post it as a part of Traditional Day.

The piece is 5x5" and is made from 1 ply white museum board. The image is of Kaneda on his motorcycle from Akira. I did this piece not too long after completing the Priss sculpture ([link]).

I was still learning and there are many things I would change if I did this piece over (primarily, I think I would do it in color and I would have done some texture on the tire.), but I do like it and loved the movie as well. I'm not sure if it can be seen, but I did put a wind shield on the bike. It is plastic and may not show up well in the photo.

Character and original art by Katsuhiro Otomo

Thank you. I keep meaning to redo this in color one of these days, but there never seems to be enough time.

Just watched the movie, and wanted to look up Akira artwork on deviantart. Yours caught my eyes. It's really amazing at first I thought it was stone, but i caught a closer glance. I love the dimension the paper gives kaneda and his bike

Thanks very much. This image provided some challenges because of the foreshortening of the bike and I'm glad it reads as well as it does, based on the feedback I have received.

Thank you! Having my work share a space with Jeff Nishinaka is a huge compliment.
