Description: What's really awesome about browsing/watching Nakamura games, is that 1. they make sense, 2. they're hilarious. Both are qualities that transform the game from cryptic and difficult, to understandable and charming. I began this one as a break from other projects that are so slowmoving and I wanted to practice some new stuff about technique, like hair and skin since it's been amazing me lately how many colours are present in both. The white, black, red, blue and yellow colour scheme is an old comfort zone of mine, and I've been wondering for perhaps 2 years now if I'm overdependant on it, but I can't seem to break the habit. :D Is it really necessary to include other dominant colours? Can't all my future drawings be kept in these shades as well? I love the strong contrast they create together!
