Hatsune Miku

Doyora, NM's son, is a very talented computer game artist who is currently studying in California. He has left behind many character models which he uses to help develop ideas and draw on for inspiration.

Many feature in Japanese graphic novels, comics and cartoons. Doyora has had some of his work featured in this genre.

This young lady is Hatsune Miku a pop singer who started life as the marketing mascot for a maker of virtual instrument software. The company makes music for commercials and video games. The company engaged an illustrator of graphic comics to come up with the concept for the character. From what I understand she is big in Japan. She appears as a hologram alongside a live band at sell out concerts and there is a whole sub-culture among her fans.

It is all a great mystery to me.
