This is a personal fanart project which is a shoutout to my love and respect for Visual Kei, which is a subculture of Japanese Rock.
2018 was a nostalgic year for me, i listened my favorite Japanese rock bands and musicians again after 10+ years. Finding out that most of them continue their musical career, I wanted to support them with my art. Through this project called V KEI ZODIAC , even i wasn’t able to go to their concerts. And also, i want to share the beauties and passion of Visual Kei.
It was hard to choose the musicians because i had so many favorites. I tried to choose among my all-time favorites and, their birthdays to suit as well. The project includes two version: A normal and their chibi versions.

🌹 Normal Versions 🌹
In this version, i mostly draw the old styles which i liked most in the past. And i chose among their previous styles which i thought suites them most on their zodiacs and my taste. I also got inspired by Ukiyo-e paintings, Japanese calligraphy Shodou and fantasy.
🌹 Chibi Versions 🌹
I got inspired by Japanese game cards called "Hanafuda" for this version. And used their japanese names with their zodiac signs.
