Sketchbook of a Ninja [more added Sep 8]

Scroll down for newest.

For those who don't know, sometimes the (fail)ninja Kinsha draws. Not that often, but he does sketch. Normally he wouldn't show his drawings to just anyone, but I managed to snatch a few. X] I think they're in order of date...

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img001.jpg
Seems to be a bunch of little sketches. Those symbols are Japanese hiragana. From what I remember, it says "Kinsha".

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img002.jpg
Hmm. Gotta be some symbolism to this.

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img003.jpg
It's..glowing?

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img004.jpg
Ah. I think Kin has a thing for drawing his friends like animals. Pretty sure I know who this is.
I think the glowing horse is someone too.

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img005.jpg
Bunny! =D

Now this is really different from the rest. Very abstract, but full of emotion maybe?

Now I better put these back before he finds ou--
What are you doing with those?
--crap!

.
Ok, if you couldn't figure it out, I made an attempt at changing my drawing style a little, to mimic how Kinsha might draw. I think I failed miserably, cuz you can still tell it's my style. |D But yea, these would be by him.

Snatched a few more to post.

Another glowing horse. This one says "Toukan" this time.

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img008.jpg
The bird appears again.

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img009.jpg
*snickers* I know what this says, but he'd kill me if I told.

The writing on top says "Suiren".

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img011.jpg
"Kinsha, Suiren, Toukan" is what's carved into the tree.

July 22
It's been awhile since this was updated. The last sort of "Kin-sketch" I posted was on June 8. Y'know...that leopard with one of those dramatic birds? Didn't fit in here since it's a digital sketch. Kinsha would never sketch digitally I'm sure, but it's pretty much the style I've been using for his drawings.
Anyway, I'm finally posting another drawing of his, but this one is a bit different from the rest.

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b296/Pegasicorn/Other/img016.jpg
It's meant to be an abstract version of a Great Argus, flying into shining light, with poppies trailing behind. If you're aware of recent events, you can guess why this was drawn.
The katakana on top says "fenkuaa".

---
NEW September 8
Yet again it's been awhile, though not quite as long as last time. There's one drawing to add this time.

Anyone care to guess who these 2 might be?
I'd translate the hiragana, but that would give it away. It says "chichihaha" though.
(I failed big time trying to draw in Kinsha's style. It looks too much like mine. XD; Cuz it's human-faced deer. Just..pretend the anatomy is more off or something..)

The bird reminds me of Sil,

The bird reminds me of Sil, while she's probably the dolphin/whale. Or not anything at all, only clue I see are the peacock feathers.

Sil: I'M NOT THAT FA-

SHUSH.

Anyway, Sil has always reminded me of a bird. I wanted to explain my symbolism for that in a drawing myself, but it still has to come. XD

Nice sketches Kinsha! <3 (I dun get the dragonfly symbolism, sorry D:)

PEPPA BUNNY.

EDIT: Just noticed the bird has magpie coating XD *getting curious now*

@Seed: I think he's my only one that draws. But only the human version would draw like this. Deer could only really draw in dirt, trees, and maybe rock.

@@Dannii: Thanks. =D

@Avani: ;D She's not the whale, which is an orca with peacock feather markings. *hint* But yesh, Peppa bunny. 8D
And the dragonflies have to do with my deer being the "dragonfly deer". I guess I'll spill some of the symbolism. Kinsha thinks of himself as like a leopard, hence the leopard drawings thrown in, and the leopard spots on the dragonfly with the lowered wings. The "hyper"-looking dragonfly has peacock feather marks on its wings, to be Richter. And the biggest one has black feather-edged wings with a few spots to them. It's a nod to his uncle finding him and learning of his sister being alright. =]

Okay, I was brainstorming

Okay, I was brainstorming about the symbolism in the last drawing. Laughing out loud Forgive, I'll spill it here:

I think it refers to Kinsha saving Silvery's life, that one time at the lake when she tried to commit suicide. I always saw Silvery as a bird, a foolish blinded bird that flew straight at something that caught her eye. But unfortunately, the bird did not see that the subject of attraction was behind glass. So she hit it hard and broke her wing(s). <-- (Her situation really reminded me of a bird that accidentally flies straight at your window. I've had a few of those, poor things XD)

So yeah... maybe Kinsha refers to that OR the lethal wound she had. 8D

I wish I could explain my theory better XD

@Avani: *shrug* I dunno. But

@Avani: *shrug* I dunno. But the theory makes sense. XD It's more like his emotions sometimes show themselves in his drawings, even if he doesn't know about or understand them yet. =B All I know is drawing the bird all abstract and graceful like that seemed right.

@Rai: XD Bunny! And don't worry; he doesn't consider himself a leopard in the predator sense. =B Just the loner and tree-dwelling sense.

Speckled leaf that is. =B Remember the leopard spots... ;D *ducks a shuriken*

The Japanese is "Kinsha" cuz he signs like that, and the writing on the wing...literally says "Shirubari". X] It's katakana, used to write out non-Japanese words. So it's a little off to what the English is. ;]

And Radeon...would be as in the ATI graphics card. |D Choose a name that sounds red, find out it's your graphics card model. Who knew? Laughing out loud
