The style combines traditional ink wash with a touch of modern fantasy illustration. created using various kind of inks and ink techniques. The techniques used include: a Japanese calligraphy brush, a fountain pen, a gel pen, a ballpoint pen, and a liner. The artwork features all types of ink (in terms of their physical properties regarding ink spots, absorption into the paper, and ability to reflect light).

A highly detailed digital painting of a tortoise, facing right, with its head and neck extended outwards. The tortoise's shell is predominantly blue and brown with hexagonal scutes, featuring intricate patterns and varied shades with black outlines. Some scutes have a lighter, almost iridescent quality with hints of purple and gold. The tortoise's skin on its legs and head is textured, appearing armored and scaly, in shades of grey, blue, and brown. Its eyes are dark and prominent. The tortoise is depicted in a walking posture with its legs visible. The background is a stark white, with dynamic black and gray ink wash splatters and strokes beneath and around the tortoise, suggesting movement and an artistic, almost calligraphic style. There is a small yellow dot on the left side of its shell and another between its front leg and shell.
