for the okami contest. this might need a tad bit explaining as it's sort of a visual pun for sumi... uhh. well, the deep part of an inkstone is referred to as the 'umi' or ocean, and it's where most of the ink resides. i think with that you can get the rest of the picture. i've never actually been able to play the game [though i really really really hella wish i could, thus why i'm entering this contest] so i'm not actually sure if amaterasu uses her tail as a brush. but whatevs!

this was done entirely in photoshop elements so that's a first for me. it's also entry one of god knows how many. yes, i'm working on more.

press download for the officially sized entry!

Ammy looks a lot younger than in the game, but I love it! The way you made the background so sparse really adds to the emphasis on Amaterasu, especially the flames on the mirror and her markings, way to go!
(I always thought she does use her tail. ;D)
I really like it. I think you've doneAmaterasu perfectly. Good luck >w<

She does actually use her tail for the brush, which many people, even avid fans of the game, haven't seemed to realise!

I really like how much you thought about this, and the fantastic perspective. She really does look like she's running at quite some speed!
Contrary to what a previous commenter said, I actually really LIKE the blacked out eyes and the glowing flames. The ink-splat paw prints leading up to the mountains look excellent, that's actually one of my favourite parts of this :3 (and the paws, you draw animal anatomy so well!)
