I could go on further about my intentions for this character but I ranted enough. Next up: The Dog.

the inspiration of this design came from his sculpts and artwork. Looking through his portfolio, He had got that "silicon-based-organism-look" that I was looking for and tried to create something like that myself. Regardless, I'm satisfied with this design.

Some of these examples I really liked, too. Until I was inspired by a certain artist and took things to a different direction.

I really thought out of the box for this one, keeping in mind what a silicon-based being would look like. Like I said, balance between the uncanny valley of human and alien were important.

this form would reveal the true mystery of the womb of Wu Zetian. The idea follows that the ambitious nun augmented her body to create an artificial womb that could generate enough power to simulate as to what looks like a black hole, is instead, which created her next vessel to emerge out of.

tried to push for more of an uncanny valley for this one. These are development ideas for the next birth of Guan Yin. I wanted to explore something that had a balance of human looking but yet, seemingly alien too.

many bizarre rituals were performed over the years with the Disciples and many acolytes involved, linked into the Taiji-NET under deep meditation. Led by Wu Zetian, her body went through more changes, making her look more "alien" with womb looking more defined as a black hole.

These mysterious modifications have also led to the drastic biological changes that,of one which allows her being pregnant, despite claiming virginity, with Wu claims it is proof of the succession of her faith.

With her specially made "Amitabha crown", the further modifications she made to her own body allows her to able generate gravitational forces to her own will.

After a mtf gender change, she became a buddhist nun under her own led sect. With her past discipline of cybernetics, Wu Zetian now aims to combine transhumanist and religious beliefs to create a new group, The 12 Disciples of Guan Yin.

A male ex-scientist who, one day, had an epiphany, with the experience that which led him to believe he was the reincarnation of the Buddhisatva, Guan Yin.

the setting of this Disciple are more or less the same. The Goat (or in certain cases the Sheep) a.k.a Wu Zetian, the secret leader and rebellious antagonist of the Disciples to Xin Mei Wong.

to uphold this all female principle, the ex- scientist underwent a transition to MtoF and even further changes from there.... (more later)

The idea here would be that The Goat-the supposed antagonist with high ambitions, would start out to make an all female-cyborg-group with the idealistic aim to bring prosperity to china.

The supposed secret boss of the group, The Sheep or The G.O.A.T. (GOD-OF-All-TIME). The oldest member of the group and the one who started the 12 Disciples super hero group in the first place that managed to take over not just china , but all of eastern asia.

Though, an occasional drawback would leave her with some catatonic mental episode. Also equipped with some surgical precision gadgets herself, shes a foe you never want to meet.

I've want to include some "Ouroboros" symbolism as part of the new design. The Quantum Mind would be my example of this. The would-be first portable supercomputer surgically installed on her head helps her think far ahead of anything else on earth. #sketches #anime #manga #illustration #comics

from financial, education, military, social, pharmaceutical and entertainment industries and everything in-between. Problems never need to be discussed because a thousand contingencies already been made in advanced. All thanks to her headpiece attached to her head, The Quantum Mind.

The faux "Leader" of the 12 Disciples, The Snake runs everything behind and manages everything behind the scenes of all of china. #sketches #anime #manga #illustration #concept #concept #comics #rkgk #らくがき #pencil #sciencefiction

thought these initial designs were too simple and generic. So, an overhaul was needed.

The Idea: For the Snake, I wanted somebody who was the brains for the group. Super intelligent, classy but was always behind the scenes cunningly running everything behind the scenes.
