#shield 6

it just occured to me that i rarely post finished art of my ocs on this blog, i just dump them on my a03. So anyway here's a bunch of my Yakuza/RGG ocs, in some of my fav finished pieces!! Some are majorish charas, some are minor. They all appear in my Hurtcember 2024 series from part 4 onward (not all at once! they're intoduced gradually), but I didn't start illustrating the series until uhhh I think part 13 or 14.

The majority of them are Majima Family x I affectionately call them my majiboys! But some aren't, and they're affiliated to HQ.

This is NOT all of them btw ^^;;; Also all of these are their 2012 designs, because that's when the fic is set. On my pinned @ my main @tatteredgod you can see links to some oc pages which have their updated 2025 designs! *not finalised

I love making yakuza ocs, talking about them, and I'd love to see yours too! Please @ me if you want to talk about your ocs/making ocs! My inbox is open, but I think my DMs are followers only, for spam reasons.

some of my rejected artwork for my ongoing hurtcember series. ;o; not that it matters I still have like...7 arts left

top: some of Daigo's original bodyguard team, inc Morinaga, Aizawa, + 2 yakuza ocs, Hodai and Kenshi. Hodai had a complete redesign at the last minute so into the trash this goes!!! (weeping)

This was a really fun end to the first story arc for Shield. I enjoyed that it was both episodic, but also built over time. It built in a way that you didn't realize it was building, till its already been built. Like, for weeks you've been seeing construction equipment and thinking nothing of it, but then one day you're like, "Where'd this building come from?"

Also I really like how they used d-list heroes and they were actually really helpful. Its cool that they can just use people like: Simon Garth, The Living Mummy, Man-Thing,  and Frankenstein’s Monster and have them actually be important. I like that.
