For this submission I have used actual Sumi-e strokes from the Kanji alphabet to represent an iconic figurine. I have also elected to use more gradients in my design to provide more depth, dynamics and interest.
To me, the interesting aspect of the icon is that it is representative of the figurine yet has a traditional Asian feel to it. Some may see a Kanji-like character while others may see a figure performing a martial arts movement. Some may see both.
I look forward to your feedback.
