*drags Tsurugi by the handcuffs* So I spun a wheel, and it landed on our favorite boy, the Ultimate Police Officer himself, Tsurugi Kinjoooo.
So, the first thing I wanted to mention was Tsurugi's skin tone. Obviously, when you compare his DRA sprite with his SDRA2 sprite, he is FAR paler than his younger self which can be an...odd choice to make. You can probably handwave it as Kinjo simply looking like that cause he's sickly, but with LINUJ's 2022 winter illustration, it's pretty much canon that he was always suppose to be pale. Honestly, the DRA sprites have their saturation turned all the way up to eleven, and in Tsurugi's case it makes his skin tone look darker than what seems to be intended. I used to turn up the saturation up a lot back in middle school while drawing, too, so I won't harp too much about it. Anyway, since this is Tsurugi from DRA before he, uh, got sick, so to say, I decided to try and strike a balance with his skin tone: pale but clearly very healthy (for now). Aside from that, Tsurugi's design was pretty much fine? When you're told that he's the Ultimate Police Officer, you can understand where LINUJ was going with his design, a simple police uniform but it doesn't exactly scream...authority, you know? So I decided to the push the Police Officer theme a bit more by giving him a vest, a radio, and even some gloves! It's also a nice callback to his friend, Kouhei Sasaki, who also wore gloves before he...well, died. Moving on from his Lore(TM), I rolled up his sleeves, rolled up his pants but still have it so long that it covers his ankles, and changed his loafers to sneakers. I don't know, there's something appealing about a serious, no-nonsense Tsurugi taking his job very seriously...while still wearing jeans and sneakers on the job. It kinda shows that he's still a teenager despite being a police officer even though he's so damn young. Kinda fucked up when you stop and think about that. I also gave him a few scars, not many, but mostly cause they're probably hidden underneath his clothes. Tsurugi has mentioned being in some pretty hostile situations (especially the one that involved Kouhei's death) and I doubt he always got out unscathed, so I decided to put one on each arm: a thin scar from a knife, and a star-shaped scar from a bullet. From there, I toned down the saturation of his color palette, and added more black and gold. Fun fact: the color gold can symbolize reputation, which is hilarious considering how much Tsurugi's reputation sinks during DRA, and how controversial he gets in-universe in SDRA2.
Anyways, Tsurugi is going to start a lot of shit, time to run.

Hi Breezy!
I would like to request you a drawing, and a big one!
It is DRA Yuki, Akane, Tsurugi, Teruya and Rei meeting SDRA2 Yuki, Sora, Tsurugi, Teruya and Rei!
So basically the DRA students meeting their older selves drawing. XD
I want to see how they would react to their future/past selves!
Good luck!
been awhile since i've done a request, but here's one i've worked on passively for awhile now that i finally finished.
with there being so many characters here, i didn't really get caught up on the details, so it's probably messier than the other requests...! probably won't do another request with this many characters haha
but anyways, here! (some of these aren't technically the same people, but the idea was fun to draw anyways!)

Beware of the Clowns.
Sorry this one took a while to post. This has been done for awhile now but I was struggling to decide which patterns looked best on Satsuki and stuff. Even after talking with friends, I'm not sure which versions I like best, which I'll share under read more. I've also just been busy with work and school at the same time. Nonetheless, Satsuki's was an interesting one to tackle as her design was pretty good and made sense for an Ultimate Clown, if a bit plain. I'll admit, I kinda struggled on what direction I wanted to go for her since, you know, she's a clown. Trying to figure out a clown design for her that's unique and isn't just her OG design in a new paint was kinda hard. Still, I tried my best to come up with something that I liked. Her one piece clown suit was changed to one with a skirt instead, with the buttons being replaced with puffy ones, and kept the sleeves big and puffy. Since she's no longer wearing pants, I gave her stockings with a polka dot pattern to match her suit, and changed her pointy jester shoes with big clown shoes. Although I'll admit, they don't look very big so I'll have to adjust that in future drawings. Her hair and hat weren't change all that much in style, I just adjusted them to look a bit more interesting and the star and moon symbols were no longer on strings and are just attached to the ends of the hat. I also gave her clown makeup to really put emphasize on her Ultimate talent. I stuck to the pink, blue, and bits of gold color palette, but I had the idea of switching which side had blue and pink with each piece of clothing. To make her feel a little bit silly and wacky with the asymmetry in colors, you know? With that, I made a version of her without the hair and makeup and we're essentially done.
Haru, your girlfriend is here to pick you up, tiny clown car and all-
(Also, here's the other pattern versions that I made under read more.)

Version 2.0
