Yuko's Tiger

Character designs for yet another one of my unfinished doujinshi strips. The girl in this picture is Yuko Tamagawa, a fifteen year-old schoolgirl from the Shibuya district. At first glance, Yuko appears to be your stereotypical Tokyo 'kogaru,' spending most of her free time clubbing with friends, talking on the cel-phone and battling extradimensional demons. <br />
<br />
Unknown to anyone, even her adoptive parents, Yuko is actually a magical princess who was hidden on Earth after her family was wiped out during a revolution years before. The stuffed toy she's owned since early childhodd is (of course) a powerful talisman capable of transforming into a man-eating carnivore whenever her life is threatened.<br />
