Commission request
for Isajii
I'd like to commission a full color, Animé style, digital
illustration of one of my characters, with a very simple background.
If you decide to take this commission, please have fun, and enjoy!
Isajii (pronunciation:
ee-sah-JEE) is an original character by Paltiel.
His name means "Too much tea".
Thank you!
Character
intro
At a quick glance, Isajii could pass as a teenager, although anyone
standing close would quickly note he's not human. If the quartz blue
skin and hamstery feet weren't enough of a give away, then the
crystal-chime voice would cinch it. (Let's not forget those long, pointed ears, either.)
He's inquisitive, polite, knowledgable, and often helpful. The boy-machine
is proudly quirky, in an "I have more
bells, features, and whistles than the latest laptop, luxury
sports car, and starship- COMBINED," way.
He tries to act positive, and avoids damaging things, if
possible. This is complicated by his ridiculously heavy,
nuclear-fusion powered body. He's not alive as you or I would
be, but still passes himself off as a person. It helps that he
has enough computing power to run a small country. That gives
him a knack at predicting peoples' behavior, most of the time.
Albeit, when it doesn't work, entertaining mayhem usually
ensues. The little guy was built as a scout golem by a
psychopathic, space-based, mega-corporation. Fortunately, none
of their evil rubbed off on him. He's currently on the lam
from his creators.
What
he
looks like
He's five foot nine (~175cm) tall and his skin color is sky
blue. His body itself is crystal; light passes through it,
reflecting less and less as it gets deeper. He doesn't
sparkle, but the facets of his shape play with light not unlike a
gemstone.
His eyes are peaceful, and have a light wisdom about them. If
anyone familiar with him were asked how he looks, they'd answer that
he's a cheerful, beautiful, living, crystal statue. He'll
typically sport an amiable grin, or a wistful grin if
embarrassed. The poor guy doesn't smile nearly enough, because
his designer had a twisted sense of humor. She fashioned his
teeth like a shark's; There are three concentric rows of
overlapping, triangular chompers inside his mouth.
They're transparent, and iridescent like opal. Regrettably,
too many people have been shocked by that toothy smile. It's
since left him anxious about displaying anything bigger than a grin.
His body is made up of lots of straight lines. Now, this is
not to say that he doesn't have curves; he does have curved bits,
but rather than normal curves, straight lines link together to form
curved areas of his anatomy. The reference image
below does a great job of capturing this.
The old Turner TV Cartoon, Captain
Planet had a character with a similar body style, although
Captain Planet was a lot less sharp-looking than Isajii, and much,
much older.
The major differences between Isajii and a normal human are that he
has blue skin, four fingered hands, digitigrade's feet with four
toes, long spiky hair that defies gravity, long pointed ears, and a
shape that's overall very angular. The tips of his fingers and
toes should come to a sharp point. Apart from his ears and
nose, he doesn't have any anatomical features that protrude.
This means that he doesn't have nipples, nails, or a belly button.
He has well toned muscles, with more lower body strength than
upper. His skin has the same color all
over - a slightly reflective, light shade of blue. The shade
alternates depending on how the light hits it. (Please see CallousVixen's illustration
directly below, as an example.)

Another bishounen? What, can't you spray for those things?
Drawing
details
Please picture Isajii in any pose you're comfortable with.
You're the artist, and you know what looks good, so I'll go with
your input. ^_^ There should be no nudity, but sexiness
is fine.
Eyes,
eyebrows,
and facial expression
He has two light grey,
reflective eyes, with vertical oval pupils that are a slightly
darker shade of grey than his iris. Eyebrows
covered by his hair should be drawn silhouetted. There's a
peaceful look in his eyes, and on his face. He's cute, in
an otherworldly fashion.
The eyes in Cokuruscana's
image below are similar to what I'd like.

Body
proportions
and musculature
Isajii has the chiseled proportions of a young athlete: An upper
body that displays a "V" shape, solid looking joints, well defined
muscles, etc.
Please try to capture a gem-like, angular, but smooth look.
The calf, tibialis, and ankle muscles in his lower legs are
large. His upper legs' quadriceps and hamstrings are equally
strong.
Ears
and
position
His ears are a simple geometric shape: A three sided spike.
They're very long and end in a sharp point. The base of the
ears should be at the same height as his eyebrows, positioned at the
side of his head.
Their length is 1½' (~45 cm). They sweep back and point
upwards, out from his hair, when he's standing or walking. If
he's in a flying pose, then they should point away from the
direction he's travelling, like an airplane's wings.

Hair
He frequently flies around, at high
speed, so his hair has a swept-back look to it. Please steal
the hair color and shape from CallousVixen's
illustration, 'cause it's perfect. =^ω^=
V-shaped
upper
body
Please note, Isajii is less
muscular than ArkTheFury's Hurick.

Digit
shape
His toes end in sharp points, without incorporating separate nails.
Please disregard stuff outside the cyan bounding box.

Legs and feet
His legs are muscular, faceted, and
somewhat mechanical-looking. They're also
digitigrade.
Additionally, aerodynamic "wings" point upwards from his calves.
His feet have four toes (they all touch the ground), plus a
single spike jutting straight down from the heel. The
heelspike doesn't touch the ground.
Ahh~ Nothing beats a giant robot with a gatling gun

If possible, please use the Colonel's upper and
lower leg, and foot proportions for Isajii's digitigrade lower
anatomy.
(kaazi did a great job
of drawing a man on his toes- this is a great reference)

Reference Images
blue rainbow triangle by
Seraphiczero
Here's a good crystal
reference. There's lots of angularity, with complexity
visible just beneath the surface. Transparency, too.
Clothes
He wears a pair of white jean
shorts, with pockets in front. The shorts cut off,
raggedly, four inches below the crotch. They stay up
thanks to an elastic waistband, but are otherwise comfortably
loose. The rest of his body should be unclothed, to show
off his manry shape. ^_~
Background
A shadow is fine. It shouldn't be anything complex.
Thank you again!
P.S.: Some images will expand if clicked.
