I really love the soft peach and tan design @scrawly. Shinigami Boy has a beautifully shaped and shaded face ~ The triangle on his face could look like 'war paint' but it also has the quality of light radiating outwards with the 'third eye' at the top. Maybe Shinigami Boy is caught between the light and the dark: good and evil? Or maybe he's in balance with them.
Also love the streams of double lines ~ Shades of indigenous art. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Shinigami is a death god, but he is not an evil boy. More like trying to do good with the power that is given to him by birth, so your interpretation is pretty apt.
Thank you Ally, you are always wonderful :).
