As my magazine features various Dupstep/ rave artists and its bright vivid colours would appeal to the Ravers but with the whole hand drawn design theme this could ideally appeal to the craft kid group.
When placed side by side with a genuine anime Artist such as Miku Hatsune it is clear that I still have a long way to go before I reach that level of anime design, But when they are placed together my inspirations from her are more visible, for example; her proud pop star-like stance, the bright neon hair colours or the implementation of electronics on their costume and props. But on the other hand my DJ has major differences to Miku in other ways that just design e.g. my DJ is more mysterious as most of her face and skin is covered and my DJ appears more masculine whilst slouching and by wearing jeans instead of a dress.
As a character Miku Hatsune is represented as an upbeat and energetic character whilst my DJ 'Luna' is seen as easy going partyer with a laid back view on reality a typical raver. I have challenged the anime costume by creating my DJ with a more casual uniform as the more conventional artist like Miku are seen in bizzare and electronic apparel like her digital display across her armband.
I have incorporated a luminous and rainbow esque colour scheme to her design to recreate the bright neon element of a raver, I have also made her hair and accessories more vibrant and brighter to compliment the starry background and have made her goggles more effective by applying gradients and colour tints.
