Description
Finally! Months and months after I first did the lineart, the whole thing is put together!Apparently the Saiyuki boys finished their quest and decided to try their hands at the whole music thing. Until it all fell apart one night after Goku got carried away and destroyed his drum kit as well as half the lighting rig, Gojyo smashed his guitar at the end of an impassioned solo, Sanzo got thoroughly drunk and insulted the club owner, the owner's girlfriend, the security goons and most of the audience, and Hakkai, sick of tidying the dressing room and tour bus everyday, never showed back up on stage after the break and was, indeed, never seen again.
Inked traditionally, colored in Painter IX.

Just the other day, Icommented to my mom (who is rapidly becoming a major Saiyuki fan) On the fact that Gojyo looks like he belongs in a rock band! Awesome picture, I love it!

THAT'S FUNNY!
Not funny ha-ha, but funny amusing, seeing as how when I have my feverish little daydreams about me being a rock star, Goku is always the drummer. XD

Somehow, I got this feeling Sanzo's singing will be horrible as hell.
But I love this!

I figure he's one of those guys who vaguely mumbles along in time with the music, then screams insults at the audience and walks off the stage. XD

wooo ive always pictured the sanzo boys in a band and you have the parts perfectly though i think hakkai might be more of a keyborder. still love it and i think their number one song will be "shut the f*** up!" lol since sanzo is singing.

uuu larvely XD
I take it Hakkai pursued a distant solo career only to re-emerge many years later, together with a dubious pop-funk album complete with heart-rending solos of his quest to find love through isolation and rehab.
yeah. fav.

Marvelous! XD
Sanzo keep his cigaret while he's singing? o.O
Ah, of course, my dear gojyo's the guitarist...
Hey, wait a minut?!
WTF? I don't see any microphone on this telecaster? O.O
By the way, I love the coloring...
Keep it up! ^^

SWOOOOOOON!!! I love it *adds to faves* that is one band I'd give anything to see LOL

each instrument os actually perfect for them. Hakkai is the steady bass. The backbeat of the music, keeping everything in tune. Gojyo is the loud and wild, guitar. Sanzo is the overpowering but sometimes beautiful melody of the group. And Goku is the loud and annoying drums, annoying everyone but waking them up to the realities of life. You must have put some thought into it. Kudos for you hard work!

oh hell yea! would I go to see THAT band! but I think Hakkai would be a hotter singer...anyways! it's awsome and i just added it! I love it!

Very good work and good shading. Keep up the great work.

This is so great! Goyjo is really hot in this picture. And Goku is such a drummer. And the little story about the band was really funny to read. Like the color scheme, way to go!

Awesome pic! And it totally works. It probably shouldn't, but it does - especially with your little story!

Awesome awesome..*squeals* You just made the already-obsessed-over-saiyuki me to be obsess-er with them/ and I dun think I get what I am saying.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Wowsies... O_.; I had a dream like this a few months ago... Gojyo reminds me of when I got hyper in band and went on an air guitar rampage... Then picked up a real one and "accidentally" broke it at the end of my "Still Time" Solo...

good. very very good. but heres what i think the lineup should be;
goku: vocals
gojyo: stay on guitar
sanzo: bass
hakkai: drums
simply coz goku has a better singing voice and bass doesnt suit hakkai.
anyway. v/good. *faves*

Oh my goodness! I love it! Very well done. I like the 'montage feel' that it has, each boy is in his own
moment, but each one makes up the whole composition! Very nice. Colors are awesome and I can't wait
to try my hand at digital art myself!

Woah *is speech-less*
You know, I've been thinking about something like that since I first read Saiyuki *laughs* I've always been sure they would make a great rock band, together XD
Your work is really beautiful-- I love both the colours and the different ways you've potrayed each character <3

hahahahah awesome.................
you should write a song 4 them 
you got their roles/ characters just right too!!!
sanzo looks like the angsty singer xD

omfg. ^^ I love this image. The idea is amazing too~ I can hear them sing one of Seki-sama's song too

It's actually kinda funny, I was thinking about this very same concept about four seconds before I read a note from a friend telling me to check this stuff out. So, bully to you for beating me to the punch.
P.S. Gojyo's pose is the best. Looks sort of like Gene Simmons going to town on that thing.

Woah *_*... one day I imagined them exactly as you drew 'em! Sanzo voice, Goku drums, Gojyo guitar and Hakkai bass... just fantastic!
