This is a character of mine for an anime series I've been writing in my head for the past couple years now. If he looks familiar... and you'd have to be stretching pretty far back for him to be familiar... then you may notice that I used a variation of his character for the "Final Boss" in the CCI Competition comic series I was doing when I first arrived at FA.

I was compelled, after much time without doing anything artwise with the series, to try drawing up his forms. The top left is his normal form with four tails(he only has three at the start of the series, but since I was thinking of coloring these I went ahead and drew the four tail version to simplify the project later).

The top right image is his demon form as it appears the very first time he transforms into it. (A traumatic, near-death incident forces his survival instincts to take over and he goes on a bloody rampage. His third tail splits into a fourth during this transformation and results in a huge boost to his power level. The fourth tail remains with him permanently after the transformation finally ends.)

The bottom image is of his final form, which appears only in the final 2-3 episodes. It is an ascended state of the demon transformation that results in an explosive increase in power and the development of a full nine tails. This is the only instance of the transformation in which Tsutsumi remains in control of his demon form.

His character was designed as a reflection of myself, so that may give you an idea of how he thinks and acts in general. Basically he's a quirky little faggot with a knack for getting himself into trouble, can find humor in anything, and generally seems to enjoy violence.

I hope to color these sometime... but since that could be forever, I decided to go ahead and post these to scraps.
