Ichigo by Relotixke on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

So does anyone else hate it when people use the name Shiroichi, Ogihci, or even Hichigo in a fanfiction? Especially Ogihci, since not only is that not a Japanese name, or even a word, it isn't even PRONOUNCEABLE. I mean have any of those names ever been in the manga? No of course not, they're just fan monikers. Oh well, I guess you can't expect very much when you read fanfiction.

So I found a hot picture of James Marsden on google image search and I was gonna use him as reference for a character of my own, but I'd spent like the last two hours looking at bleach fanart and I guess it was still on my mind. When the drawing began to look irrevocably like Ichigo (or at least some bleach character) I gave up the ghost and just went with it.

I've seen plenty of drawings people have done of the badass horned mask form, and a few of long-haired Ichigo without the mask, but I've yet to see him made into an actual arrancar, with the broken mask pieces and white clothes and stuff. So that's hot, and I drew it.

There are some problems with this picture but I'm going to choose to attribute them to artistic license.

If you're wondering why poor arrancar ichigo is without anything but a pair of pants that are not staying up all that well, well............yeah it's fanservice. Or maybe Aizen couldn't find a shirt that fit over his fur/fire/whatever shoulder things. Maybe the other arrancar are hazing him, and stole all his shirts? I dunno, whatever. Use your imagination.
