Description A WIP quickie I did on a whim after re-watching the arrancar and Hueco Mundo arc recently [I was so f***ing bored, and felt too fatigued/drained in a way to even draw anything].

Originally intended to just draw him with his hair long (just for the fun of it to see how he looks like with it --and so, I don't wanna hear whether you like his hollowfied long hair style or not). But for some reason I added his new hollow mask, on the side of his face akin to one of Kubo Tite's illustrations (the one with him, Renji, Hitsugaya and Ikkaku charging at Ulquiorra, Grimmjow, Wonderwince and Yammy). Heck I've always wanted to try out drawing his new mask since reading the latest chapter [350], so...

Anyway....it still needs a lot of tweaking to do (such as debating whether to keep his shinigami attire [whatsoever the top's called] or leave him bare chested with a hollow hole, marking, and 'mane' ). But for now.....*feels suddenly disinterested to finish it*....I'll finish it later -__-;

[Will chuck this to the Scraps once its finished and uploaded]

*lol* Working on digitally inking it on photoshop right now (partly 'coz I'm too lazy to clean it up properly and all) -the swamp of +favs I got from this pathetic unfinished scrap appalls me so much I decided to try finishing it XD I might colour it, though. Not too sure...

You know, I was thinking about his new Hollow mask and transformation, and it suddenly occurred to me:

what if his hollow is evolving inside him? What if Hichigo is moving up in the ranks of hollows to become an Arrancar? Maybe that's why Ichigo looks different; he now has not just a high-level hollow, but an Arrancar inside of him?

Food for thought.

blackstorm In reply to foreversea [2009-03-22 16:55:02 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it got me wondering too when he surprisingly didn't really change into that hollow form back in chapter 222, and looking more Arrancar-like than anything else close instead, although his mask fully covers his face and not part of it like most of the arrancars (even in their release form) *scratches her head in confusion* I hope Tite would clear that up for us next chapter or later when his fight with Ulquiorra is over

foreversea In reply to blackstorm [2009-03-22 17:05:52 +0000 UTC]

Well, there is that one guy, the executioner with the (lame) tree-related release fighting Rukia right now. As far as I can tell, his mask is still intact. Which i've always though was odd, actually.
gah! man, I hope Tite explains! Though he usually is pretty good at explaining things like that. Which is nice, since if he wasn't, the entire Bleach fanbase would be permanently confused.
After Ichigo whoops Ulquiorra's butt, of course.

Ah, Rudobon you mean? Yeah, though I've no idea what makes me think that it isn't actually his mask

*lol* True, but he sometimes lead us on a guessing game on certain things. Like the Vasto Lorde, and a few other things....

Yup yup, I got the calendar too. I kinda wish they put more illustrations in it, like one illustration each month in the year instead of one for two months each.

Yeah, and it was that cover that made thought it contains new illustrations that I've never seen before, oh well at least I'm content enough with the March-April and Nov-Dec illustration.
