Heaven has no taste. And not one single Burger Barn, let alone a soba shop...

Good Omens AU Blackmadhi! Character design symbolism and also a very old original version of this under the cut, if anyone wants to see how much progress practice makes

Symbolism/significance for Nahyuta's design: Since Khura'inism seems to draw a lot from Buddhism as its basis, I picked elements from South Asian/Indian Buddhism and some from Hinduism as part of Nahyuta's design. The clothing is similar to what many Buddhas wear in art, and instead of a Western style halo, they have a prabhamandala, which was originally from Hindu depictions of deities and was later sometimes used in Buddhism.

They're also doing two mudras, the abhaya mudra (protection) with and the chin mudra (peace). The floating scarf is a carryover from canon, but is also featured in a lot of Buddhist art, though I see it more in East Asian buddhist art

Symbolism/significance for Simon's design: In Japanese mythology, the most similar thing to a "demon" in the Christian sense of the term is an oni; they torment sinners in hell and, if they are wicked enough, a person can turn into an oni in life. Typically oni are red, blue, yellow, green, or black; wear loincloths; and carry clubs, but I chose to dress Simon in a Samurai's kamishimo and not give him a traditional oni's coloration to better match the vibe I wanted the piece to have. I kept the yellow horns that an oni usually has, as well as the tusk-like teeth.

In order to give Simon the same amount of otherworldly gravitas as Nahyuta, I drew flames around him in a similar style to traditional Japanese paintings depicting oni and youkai.

Last but not least: The poster I based this on and the old version of this drawing from two years ago. Practice makes progress!
