This nice piece of music, made by the reference of electronics
Maritumi-san is my little gem of a comission.
Originally I got difficulties to know what I was searching for
but the music itself helped me a ton. It became one of the song
of my "imaginary blender movies".
This part would be the second part after my all time favorite
music which is "Stargazer" from Liz Triangle.
First music would feature a broken robot and Tsukasa searching
for solution in a mysterious and beautiful desert with a sad
ending of the robot falling and dying
Then this piece would be the "rebound" of her trying her best to
get out of this world (which is in truth a test tube of Ran)
The hope of this piece is really straightfoward and intense.
Maritumi's drum&bass is like the good old vanilla ice cream, it
just works and hit well each time.
The Tengu Gathering! I love this piece because of the Touhou
mentality that is shares
A good drink and eat out with friends. We can say they are
collegues
but they seems quite friendly here. It is just a warm and cozy
ambiance and the
pen of Doggo-san bring lively organic lines. He changes all the
characters' cloths to modern ones too.
The colors are warm and nice and the characters are respected,
the angle of the camera gives us a global vision of the scene
Hotpot is the way to go, always go well with sake!
The Mystias!!! Who doesnot LOVE the Mystias?? As you can see I
am a HUGE fans of Mystia!
It took a while but it is my favorite chracter for lot of
reason, from a little idiotic bird, she became a good
hardworker, full of great values
She even learn to play guitar and not sing for her group
"Choujuu Gigaku", punk music. Which is pretty funny to see her
schred guitar about Gensokyo "society" is rotten!
Baekban-san, from South Korea, accepted my commercial comission,
because it is the logo of my futur café! A touhou related café
with others passion licences.
I love them so much that I made them in PVC keyholders for my
futur clients. They are 100% awesome and represent what I strive
for.
I even made "VIP" one, shiny ones, so I can offer for very good
clients.I think having multiples logos for a café can be a dumb
decision, but it can works if it's one character, like the
"Mystia coffee"^^!
It's funny how Dojin culture is totally ignored outside of
Japan, I want a café presenting all this insane culture to
others. The blue one is my best favorite.
Naufal's art! A reference to the West. Man got a loose style
that is so cool to see, however he doesn't mean he is bad with
fundamental, by far.
This piece would have been the cover of my second book, when my
own version of Gensokyo breaks and chaos explose everywhere. It
is darkgrim, to the point Suika got destroyed. That is scary.
Tsukasa, as the main character of the first book, is still is in
this book. But while a main character can have the story unfold
for her tribulations (nice word), here the character is trying
to survive
The pose of her running of this picture is freaking awesome, the
hues of red are cleannn and the composition is flowing. The
focus is on their faces and worry.
And a little reference to doom behind, who ask for more? Doom
and touhou are like bread and butter, right?
Very nice piece for a cover of a book, makes you wonder and
change opinions of characters and does a complete 180 to the
cover of the first book.
Well, this piece is kinda special. It was originally the cover
of my book 4
A Reimu, stranded, trapped, her head, stuck into a special box.
At all costs, she should never be free again.
It's not enemies, but friendly. The Yakumos did this to her? But
why? We don't know. But perhaps to play chess against a bigger
enemy.
I wanted this book to be the "final battle" before the last book
that would have been the most creative one. But this book could
shown the pure wickness of the Yakumos to a level readers would
have never expected.
Reimu is conscious on the painting and it's the arm of Chen
silencing her.
This painting have been made with lot of email with Zzyma, it's
better to use emails for very compelx pieces.
The piece represent all the "canon" main games in order; There
is others secrets in the painting for the trained eyes.
And the suprise to it is this : I gifted this huge oil painting
to... ZUN-san! I did not receive news for a while, but one day
during one of his beer streams, he actually shown it as "one of
his best fan piece".
it is quite exceptionnal since he prefer not to show fan works
for reasons : no autorisation of the fans and not profiting a
circle to not disadvantage others.
He said it himself before, he prefers to stay neutral about all
of it. But this painting (and my fan letter) were made in the
idea to show it to a lot of people, West or East.
If lot of people enjoy my comissions, it's great because this
piece is for celebrating Touhou for its 19th game. I can't wait
the 20th demo release and swim into its music again.
I am extremely grateful he appreciated this piece that, I
actually got the picture while you are almost sleeping but not
quite. This state is fantastic for imagination. I remember to
get up, note on the paper and went to bed again.
I think Zzyma art is quite specific but works perfectly with oil
painting and symbolism. I actually have a Momiji from them on my
desk and it is a great front portrait of her.
Now we are talking the Momiji's specialist. He is probably one
of the few artists that spend years and years only drawing her
like a madman.
This comission was a character sheet for a 3D model. The 3D
model would have been used for my first ever 3D blender movie.
Well, when I finished part 1 of minusT's tutorial of blender,
after 3 months, I decided that it would be way harder than
expected.
The problem is : Blender is really hard. It is the photoshop of
3D and can be too powerful for the beginner.
The other problem is : the course is in...korean. So you must
gets it with...english subtitles.
While watching a movie, it is fine. But for learnign a
high-level new skill, it is hell to stop again and again.
That's a big shame if you ask me because minusT is a good
teacher with a superbe patience to show everything from the
ground. If you are korean and wants to get into 3D, it's 100%
worth its price.
For the piece, it is a SUPERBE revisited Momiji. Please try to
see her jumping on flying Tengus machine at 100meters high-level
Then with 50 others Wolf Tengus, they all jump on a gigantic
floating plateform and fight goes insane.
The culmination happens when the music explode like the big
flying thing
Momiji got ejected and hurt badly, losing her armor
Now imagine a struggling, a one-on-one, BLOODY hand-to-hand
combat with a strong "Thing", stronger than her.
By sheer luck, Nitori with a jetpack comes, give 2 or 3
futuristic shotgun shots, then surcharge her "energy cell" on
her back
Then she save her friend while jumping, camera upwards looking
at a red maple explosion. Full hollywood copium.
it's the direct awesome action injected into the veins. The
design here really define the whole tone of my series.
This little movie in my head actually started my passion in all
the others....9 others movies.
I would need a whole life to make them, art can be so
frustrating T_T
If you want a nice Momiji, that is not the moe one, and not the
agressive one, but a the awesome/realistic one, don't search
more, it is Ramnik-san.
He did a manga too that is short and pretty good too, check it,
it's about yokais. https://ramnik5.com/
There is never enough Momiji !!!
But this one is the dangerous one, the moe, the cute, the
addictive Momiji.
Collecting "super-deformed" or "chibi" Momiji is a dangerous
adventure, because it will take you multiples days.
And more so if you commission it from the best artist to draw
the chibi momiji.
You can't hate her, it's impossible, it's physically impossible.
Giving her a toast was the best thing I did, and look at her,
LOOK AT HER, she is SO happy. With her little antenna on her
head.
The chibis are actually a weapon, a dangerous one to weak
hearts. Be cautious to not take too much Siever-Miji with her
art.
Hikanyan-san is a Master of making others saying "GNHHHH!!" She
always use the good classic emotes too, a person with real
taste.

Commentary
Another one!
Mystia and Kyouko having a nice refreshing iced beer.
Like a lot of people playing Mystia Izakaya, thoses 2 are one of
my favorites.
They are hardworking but silly too.
A mug of beer is so good after a hard day of work.
They are well detailed even for chibies.
Hikanyan-san did a wonderful work in record time like before.
She is the Mike Tyson of cuteness (ง ͠° ͟ل͜ ͡°)ง̲
This piece was commissionned for thanking the biggest
commissioner of Nazrin (prononciation is "Nazurin")
The generous man is Louisdesnow As of today the 24/04/2025, he
sended 675 comissions.(!!!!)
It is a world record, right?
So I added ANOTHER Nazrin to his quite insane collection.
So, yea I think a comission as a gift is a minimum for his
generosity.
I got the art from Lily, my favorite singer and she made a nice
cute Nazrin, with a timid twist.
Who doesn't like a timid, summer-dressed, rat girl, with shiny
eyes?
It can be a modest cover of one of their CDs, and the music
would be a relaxing one, right?
This piece was more spontanious and a personnal guilty pleasure.
While I am a fan of Momiji, I am a fan of Nitori too.
I kinda relate to this smart kappa, because I was a technicien
in industry.
I found one of Evenomist-san art like but it was erotic, while
the piece was fantastic, I wanted a piece without the erotic
part
This artist delivered with so much more, all the details are
great. The cloth fold(!!!), the detail on the boots, the
background.
It is a great piece that satisfy my inner techy nerd in me. The
big key tool in her hands is absurd but credible too!
That composition and pose, camera angle are hmmmm~~~, really
good. I love her pose, it keeps a bit of her feminity without
showing more.
There is a little fish-eye too, and it's well done. just light
enough to reinforce the position of the camera and show the
background.
Sometimes a serious piece like this one is the best.
This art should have been the background of a Twitch channel I
should have made.
Numenoko is a person of mysteries on twitter.
He/she always poses mysteries as games, and sometimes if you
win, you got a comission as a gift.
The art is definitly into the cute category, but more into the
goofy one.
Actually the interactions with the artist are never serious, and
rarely, he/she go VERY serious in heavy subject, it is actually
so funny.
Cute art with incredible consistancy, I love the 4-koma/little
stories with Koishi that have ZERO sense too
Besides the skilled craft, this artist show that your behavior
can art itself, even if you are completly goofy and out of your
mind.
That's pretty interesting to keep in mind.
I kept the art little like that,
I don't think it was the original piece, but it makes it
funnier.
The Chibis Tsukasas! It was intended to decorate the bars of
descriptions below the stream.
I wanted very high quality to make the difference and Ikeda-san
doesn't do chibis a lot. But she nailed it.
They are absolutly adorable cookies and i would eat them if I
could.
i don't have the original pieces since I didn't need it, so I
heard fellow fans in Japan got them.
It gives me good feelings to know others people enjoy the same
chibies!
Then, there is the BIG painting. A masterpiece I guess?
This painting is the cover of my first book and the one in front
of my desk.
It is the true and most sincere definition of a Kuda-Gitsune,
the black mixed with white. And the gold are there to keep your
precious attention.
The piece was so good that it helped finish my book.
Tsukasa is still one my favorite touhou, but after writing a
book of 300 pages, you can guess it's not so much anymore.
But the painting is still full of energy and wickness. This fox
is absolutly evil.
While I can describe the piece, It's preferable to let you enjoy
it yourself.
The name of the piece given by the artist is "Control me"!
