Happy 29th Birthday to Ohno Satoshi

the incredibly cute artist ^^ Ohchan – and everything about him – never fail to surprise. Oldest in Arashi yet blessed with a *grumpy* baby face; he’s such an enigma. I love the way he dances so perfectly, sings with a beautiful and distinct voice, makes all sorts of expressions that tugs at heartstrings, spaces out way too often and has a vocabulary limited to one word when made to comment on food, and the fact that his brain is filled with awesomely weird ideas. <3

“Ehhhhhh—-?”…
Any idea why he’s making that awfully funny face? Comment and share your thoughts!
何でリーダがそのおかしい顔をしているの？面白いアイデアをここでコメントしてください〜

The digital painting took 2 days, based on Ochan’s figurine idea from his FREESTYLE art exhibition series. What’s unlike his personal image is that he seems to have been strongly influenced by the African-American culture and music, which can be seen throughout his entire collection of artwork. Looking through his artbook, inspiration hit and at the spur of a moment, I turned Ohno into one of his figurines.

I’ve actually a more elaborate plan for this thing 8D Let’s just wait and see how it will turn out.
