Tobihachi Artworks – Nikoge no Tsudoi

The animals drawn by Tobihachi are clad in classic attire such as armor, kimono, and medieval European dresses.

The detailed, realistic portrayals are subtly deformed, sometimes appearing stern and sometimes adorable, fully showcasing their charm as characters.

The title “Nikoge” (soft fur in Japanese) refers to the soft fur of birds and animals, which could be described in modern terms as “fluffy.”

This collection allows one to thoroughly enjoy a world of anthropomorphized animals where the stylistic beauty of traditional Japanese and Western clothing merges with “fluffy.”
