Hi!! I never know how to begin these, so I’ll describe what I want as best I can, to start it off. It’s not super specific. Please take as many artistic liberties with this as you like.

(ALSO IT’S ONLY LIKE THE FIRST PARAGRAPH AND THE PICTURES THAT ARE IMPORTANT … I AM SO SORRY FOR HOW LONG THIS IS LOL. Some people prefer text and some people prefer visual reference so I just — redundantly — added both. You don’t have to read this whole thing. My B.)

I’m looking for a picture of them right after a battle, maybe a little scruffy / banged up — but victorious. The black bodysuit under their armor might have scuffs, burns, or clawmarks in it, revealing a little skin through the tears in the fabric. Smirking or grinning, showing off some inhumanely sharp teeth, lifting their mask halfway up their face to wipe blood / dirt / whatever off of it with the back of their hand. Not all the way off, just enough to show their eyes under the shadow of the mask, you know? Typical fantasy hero stuff.

“I just slayed the beast & now I’m posing as I recover just to demonstrate how utterly, ass-whoopingly cool and sexy I am” vibes.

(You know how Ash Williams looks on the cover of Army of Darkness? That energy.)

POV can either be straight on or have them looking down somewhat towards the ‘camera,’ to emphasize height; they’re 8’9” & muscular, so any nod to them being bigger than most people is loved. (Not necessary, as it’s a solo pic, but loved.)

& a rundown of their physical appearance! My Sakuyamon doesn’t look exactly the same as their canon counterpart. 

Their outfit & body shape is a lot like the images below; hind paws + nine tails included. The hind paws can be replaced with the heels worn by the Sakuyamon in Digimon Tamers, too. Whatever’s more fun to draw!

They wear a dark bodysuit under partial armor. Their outfit is intentionally resemblant of a kitsune. The armor is predominantly royal purple and bright yellow in color, with electric blue and white accents. They are broad-shouldered and wide-hipped, with a thinner waist and thick, muscular limbs. They have visible breasts on their chestplate, but they aren’t especially busty. The armor has Yin & Yang symbols on the shoulders and diaphragm.

(If the armor is too complicated, keeping them in their bodysuit only / removing parts that are difficult to draw and just drawing bare skin instead / using their hair to cover up whatever you don’t feel like drawing is all fine by me. Sakuyamon’s armor changes between games and seasons anyway; do whatever you want here. I’ll add a picture of them in just the bodysuit.)

(Canon armor + bodysuit.)

Their face is delicate, yet androgynous. They wear dark purple lipstick. Their ears are long + pointed, like an elf’s. The way they wear their makeup is something like this; casual goth.

My Sakuyamon has the same eyes as Renamon and Taomon, their prior evolutions: black sclera, slightly glowing irises somewhere between sapphire & electric blue. Their pupils are small and vertical, but they dilate when Sakuyamon is focused or happy, like a cat. (Whatever looks better in the picture!) They have monolidded eyes and long, dark eyelashes.

(This, but, like, on a humanish face.)

They wear their hair long and down. Their hair is platinum white & curly, around a 3A-3B curl type.

(like this! except white at the roots as well — and long as in ‘down to their butt.’)

Their jaw is square, and they have a very negligible amount of stubble on their upper lip and chin. The stubble is also grey/white. It’s more like a few scruffs of stiff hair that they don’t shave than it is a beard.

Sakuyamon is middle aged. Their face is distinctly pretty; they have crow’s feet and faint worry lines.

Their skin color is a medium toned brown; they are Black and Japanese.

(If it helps, my closest real-person-reference for them is Crystal Kay!)

(& here’s an overall rundown of everything that’s different, for visual shorthand!)

… & that’s all I got! Thank you for sitting through this unnecessarily longwinded explanation. I tend to be overly thorough 😗 but. Please let me know if there are any other questions!!
