“009 Ryū no Miko” Public Wall Art by Freakyfir x Anastasia Catharina

Concept Artist & Illustrator Muhammad Firdaus (@freakyfir) takes his art from desktop to the public wall with this splendid piece, made in collaboration with fellow illustrator Anastasia Catharina (@anacathie).

The character is their interpretation of “Ryūjin no Miko” (龍神の神子 Priestess of the Dragon God) from the video game “Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 2” (遙かなる時空の中で2 / In a Distant Time 2). This mural was completed in 12 hours split across 2 days.

Not your “traditional” urban art/street graffiti aesthetic, with uber heavy doses of anime inspiration - “009 Ryū no Miko” can be found somewhere at Aliwal Arts Centre! #LOVELY

Progress shot of the wall with @anacathie . Sketching is the best part of the entire process. Fill-in? Not so much. Wishing for a real-life lasso and paint bucket tool. 📷: @memelchristina ・・・・・・・・・ #loopcolors #spraydaily #urbanarts #sggraffiti #aliwalartscentre #arthabit #graffitiart #spraypainting #streetart #electricdragon #dragongirl #anime #dragon #maiden #shrinemaiden
