@Felix - Sometimes a good 1-2 pixel smudge will return the hairlike qualities. The instances that it works properly are few and far between, but it can still sometimes work.
Not suggesting you change the image. Just a heads up that people might associate you with them. Besides that, I think it's awesome. I dig the pink.

So long as they didn't originally make the art and copyright it, it's free to use by all. If people start complaining their "artwork is stolen" or already used and they didn't make the image, 100%, renders, characters and stains included, tell'm to be more original or look harder. My way anyway.
No, I know that. Like I said, I just didn't want him being unduly associated with the Ghost ships. Like if you paint a British flag on your car when you're from Mississippi. It might cause confusion.

Current Aoi Iseijin Logo redone. Originally made by one of my guys. No one ever claimed "rights" to it though, so I have no clue who. All I did was redo the colours and apply some effects now.
