Yohio-loid concept final

This is.. my entery for the contest. It's, almost the time when we'll find out who won, and, I'm Really nervous. I must have, done, I did a crap ton of concepts for this guy. I did a poll, and, as you can see, in the end I went, against the popular voted costume. This one, seemed to speak to me, and, I did try to combine the two, most of those where just scrapped kinda just, yeah no. Then, I liked the trench coat, but, it was just too... KAITO. He's Not Kaito!

You don't how how much I was pulling my hair for the color scheme. I called in help. Go Mom. I do have some full concept arts for this, which will be, releaced at later dates. I want to line and apply color. Then you can see the full horsie, thing, on his... shirt? Tunic, thing? XD I wanted to go with what they asked, but I also kinda wanted to stick with the "Monster theme" that PowerFX has going. So.. Yeah. I did a ton of reacharch and junk. I'm going to stop here before I get into too much.

Case in point, I am rather pleased, with how this character design came out in general. I won't like, I DO hope he wins. But if he doesn't, I will, probably be finding some other use for him. Because, I really do like him.
