    Looks like a stylised version of ? (dai, oki) meaning big, large in Japanese, can't say for Chinese.

    Stroke order is wrong though, looks like a mirror image.

    LOL, yeah, thats what i keep seeing

    meh, i only did it up in paint, im going to a Mauro Picotto gig soon, and he has that bleached into his hair, (or shaved?) and me being kinda sad, thought it might be kinda cool to do the same

    edit, that should work now

    edit again, cheers, i think thats it
    Dai 大 is also a Sino-Japanese morpheme for 'big',

    Moved this to Japanese hoping you might get some more replies.
    If you want it back in art and architecture then let me know.
