My new Soom girl getting into character. This is a kumadori, a specific kabuki makeup design, meaning that the actor is playing a yokai or other supernatural creature.
Yokai and Uju(うじゅ）appeared in Daiei street, kyoto.
Uju is a character of Uzumasa Sengoku Festival at Kyoto Uzumasa Movie Studio.
Suzu is a round and hollow Japanese Shinto Bell that contains pellets that sound when agitated.
Tengu (heavenly dogs) are a class of supernatural creatures found in Japanese folklore, art, theater, and literature. They are one of the best known yōkai (monster-spirits) and are sometimes worshipped as Shinto kami (revered spirits or gods). Although they take their name from a dog-like Chinese demon (Tiangou), the tengu were originally thought to take the forms of birds of prey, and they are traditionally depicted with both human and avian characteristics.

Processed (from not much to way overboard) image I took several years ago of a toy I bought in Japan of a lantern with a human face (and big mouth). Rendered as a stained glass window and then turned into a circle (all by the same filter).

Heavily processed ukiyo-e print (part of a print, anyway) of a Japanese yokai (monster or demon) nekomata (demon cat).
In Japanese mythology, there is a yōkai (spirit or demon) named Amabie (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amabie). This yōkai helps with harvests and if you show its (hers?) picture to those afflicted with disease, the sick person should get better. Amabie has become very popular since the pandemic started and you can see variations of this image in many places (as well as more modern interpretations).
This image is from the Kyoto University Digital Archive of Rare Materials and the source can be found at rmda.kulib.kyoto-u.ac.jp/item/rb00000122.
Severely cropped variant with background elements removed.

More or less completed! He is fitted for my face but not really wearable as there are no breathing holes and it's a little heavy (3 lbs). The mane is made from wool that i dyed and shaped. The teeth will get a satin sheen.
I'm really happy with this and will be making more yokai (japanese monsters) and some others....

This yōkai Tengu looks quite normal bird, somehow I drew it like that… Tengu can take a human-like form, or part human, part bird, usually it has a long, red nose…Tengu is a joker, they are troublesome opponents of Buddhism, misleading monks, possessing people. There are lots of stories about Tengu, earliest from the Heian period (794-1185).
Edited Wikipedia image (originally from the Princeton University Library) of ukiyo-e by Kuniyoshi Utagawa of illustrations from Bakemono Chūshingura, or The Monster's Chūshingura, which is a setting of the story of the 47 Ronin, with the characters played by yokai or monsters.
