Renzo by @musewerx (Quique L.)

Character design/concept I threw together last year...inspired by late 90s and early 2000s Shonen Jump. His name's Renzo (Lorenzo), has a sword called White Heat bound to his soul, which can also turn into a motorcycle because hell yeah. Has a whole universe he resides in and everything, setting is like a weird mix of feudal Japan and 90s NYC, very strong mix of both Japanese mythology and 90s hip hop culture. Other characters with other weird soul weapons, etc. Whole thing's a weird combo of stuff inspired by Samurai Champloo, Bleach, One Piece, Afro Samurai, Cowboy Bebop, MTV's Downtown (lol wildcard), and some other stuff. Renzo himself is like a weird mix of Ichigo and Chad/Sado, Mugen, and Zoro.
