welcome back my interest in shining nikki.

My fan art of Caprico from Shining Nikki.

Shining Nikki is a gacha dress up game and Caprico is one of the summonable "designers" who gives cyber/goth/punk themed clothes.

He's like this weirdo who experiments on himself with the cybernetic things. He's one of my fav characters from SN.

I think I might've made him a bit beefier than he is in the game. Whoops.

I took some liberties with his clothes and cybernetic parts.

I'm displeased with his hand but I already redrew it once and I'm done with this picture now... I spent so much time drawing details and correcting things over and over, especially those damn abs! 😂

I used Clip Studio Paint and Ibis paint

(edit: I think I will touch up on the colors at some point because my laptop screen sucks, and I think his skin just looks kind of ashy or something... but I didn't want to make him so pale, but I'll see what I'll do... maybe... )

why Caprico is a cool and interesting character

this post is…. don't take it too seriously. I really don't know.

First of all he's one of the envoys which automatically makes him cool (or sexy, if you will). There are maybe six characters who have met the ACTUAL God of Styling and Beauty (not [player] like the god who sacrificed themself to save civilization because they loved it sm.) This puts him on the same playing field as Leonid, the guy who created a false prophecy to see if it would bring S&B back. Insane levels of characters basically.

Second! His character arc is super interesting: loved machines and making things so much he was invited to THE technology island as a lead scientist. He was passionate, easily impressed by the shiny high tech, imagine it - shining sparkling eyes as he gazes in wonder at a literal paradise (in his eyes). While he's here he invents new tech that even impresses the technology people. But then! A tragedy! He tests one of his new inventions on himself, illegal not allowed. They exile our poor Capri from his paradise forever. He changes his name to Caprico, becoming more withdrawn and secluded. People will only let him down, they can't see the cool inventions he makes as cool inventions and only see the violation of the rules (everyone knows that cool people break rules.) He joins the Justiciars and Zoey becomes cooler by associating with him.

THIRD, we need to talk about Phyllis. BEcuase wdym he sheltered a poor girl and gave her new legs just becasue she was outside his door looking like a poor wet dog. And then realizing that it was his inventions that made her lose those legs in the first place?? AND THEN SAVING HER FROM A GANG??? "Oh she was just annoying me" "I only gave her legs because she was a better test subject." uh huh, sure bestie i see what you're doing you cannot hide.

Still doubting me? He listens to Dodora's songs while he works. You can't tell me that isn't the most gap moe cutest thing. (lets just ignore the everything surrounding Dodora I'm still sad about it ｡°(°¯᷄◠¯᷅°)°｡

Caprico comes off as a cold and uncaring guy but as his core he still just a man who thinks technology is cool and wants to show it off like a kid who got a new toy. He's the envoy of sexy styles, the sluttiest man in Miraland, and yet he can't help but reach out his hand when he sees he can help someone.
