I lost a lot of my drawing time because I was too busy with my thesis, and this is the latest character design After a long period of not holding a pencil and pen for drawing. I accept constructive criticism and suggestions.
bit biography of na zha from wikipedia : Nezha or Na Zha (Chinese: ; pinyin: Nézhā or Núozhā; Japanese: Nataku or Nata) is a Taoist protection deity, the trickster, originally of Chinese Buddhist mythology. His official Taoist name is Zhongtan Yuanshuai. He was then given the title "Third Lotus Prince" after he became a deity.
According to Fengshen Yanyi, Nezha was born during the Shang Dynasty in a military fortress at Chentang Pass. His father was a military commander named Li Jing, who became the "Pagoda-wielding Heavenly King" later. Nezha's mother, Lady Yin, gave birth to a ball of flesh after being pregnant with him for three years and six months. Li Jing thought that his wife had given birth to a demon and he attacked the ball with his sword. The ball split open and Nezha jumped out as a boy instead of an infant. Nezha could speak and walk immediately after birth. He is accepted by the immortal Taiyi Zhenren as a student later. He had two older brothers, Jinzha, a disciple of Manjusri Bodhisattva, and Muzha, a disciple of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.
One day, while playing near the sea, Nezha fought and killed Ao Bing, the third son of the East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang. Ao Guang called for his brothers and confronted Nezha and his family. He threatened to flood Chentang Pass and report Nezha to the Jade Emperor. To save his family, Nezha flayed and disembowled himself to return his body to his parents. The Dragon Kings were moved by his filial piety and spared his family. Nezha was later brought back to life by his teacher, Taiyi Zhenren, who used lotus roots to construct a human body for his soul.
Nezha is often depicted as a youth, instead of an adult. He is often shown flying in the sky riding on the Wind Fire Wheels, a golden hoop around his body (sometimes on his left hand), a red sash around his shoulder and a Fire Spear in his right hand. Sometimes, he is shown having three heads and six arms. He has the ability to spit fire in some legends.
Nezha has frequently appeared in Chinese mythology and ancient Chinese literature such as the Fengshen Yanyi (or Investiture of the Gods), although the story of Nezha conquering the sea is the most famous among Chinese households.
In Journey to the West, Nezha was a general under the leadership of his father Li Jing. He fought the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, when the latter rebelled against the Jade Emperor. They became friends later.
and this is my imagination to na zha, na zha me illustrate with gear for her to fly and also weapons.
