Description Here's Basch in his old Captain of the Guard uniform, riding a chocobo. Oh feel the angst!

The chocobo was hard to do XP What started out as a quick doodle turned into 2 days worth of work because of it. I drew Basch in 2 minutes though @_@

Done in OC4Plus and PSP7.

It's meant to be scribbly. Thinking of turning this into a wallpaper.

Love the sketch feel to this image although I wouldnt say it's opne of your best. It kinda reminds me of that character in metal gear solid, cant remember what he's called though (not 'Snake' - one of the other guys on Playstation) hmm...

Thanks so much! This was more of a feeling picture than getting too bogged down in details.

For some reason, I found the image very powerful accompanied by the words. Your sketches have a lot of feeling in them, even when they're relatively simple. I really admire that ability.

Thanks! I really try to get a good solid idea with a lot of emotion in them before I can really flesh it out in a drawing. Partly why I'm not a very prolific artist. XP

Glad you like it though!

Wooooowww. I love it. The colors and "scribbly" feel to it make the picture quite striking. I think it /should/ be made into a wallpaper. It's quite lovely.

Well the size that you see there is the original size, so it's a bit small for a wall XP

It was just meant to be a sketch XDD Glad it turned out right.

Aheh... well, not really unless you made it a point to...

I just wanted to work on my lighting. It's usually weird in the pictures I do. And I also wanted to work from building the volumes then adding some lines, instead of the other way around.

Well I think it looks great. I like the style of the chocobo and Basch, how its not clean line-art or anything. It adds to the scene effect I think.

Yey! Thanks! I was inspired by the loose style of and the general sketchiness of the official concept art.

Haha, um, it's not black really. Just that the light is coming from behind them, so everything seems dark in front?
