Description Talk about something old with a fresh coat of paint. This is an old inked sketch of a couple of characters that I created/drew a couple of years ago.

4 years ago, late 2008 to be exact. Wherein' I drew this straight after I drew this one...

... Ah, the good old days when I actually drew things back to back.

None the less, allow me to introduce you to the old; Heckle, Jekyll, and Clyde.
Each of these guys was remnants or fragments of Hyde, in a similar fashion to the three chaps from Final Fantasy: Advent Children. Along with that each of their masks took a fragment of Hyde's; Clyde’s had the teeth, Heckle's the breather slits, and Jekyll's has an eye.
But these where just their initial designs, as further down the line I made Clyde Bigger and bulkier, and Heckle into a woman.

To begin with they all wielded these Keyblades:

But after a while I decided on giving them their own Keyblade and speciality. Clyde wielded a large bulky version (that could transform into a flail) and used earth and fire type attacks. Heckle used a long Rapier type of Keyblade that dwarfed Clyde’s (and could transform into a whip), and he used ice and water attacks. At first I was going to have Jekyll duel wield but then I thought it would be more interesting if he were to wield three at a time (in the arrangement of clock hands, allowing him to bend time) and he used wind and electrical spells.

But as time went on I just had this picture sitting on my desk and I didn’t have much gusto to finish it, as by then even my interests in Kingdom Hearts was wanning. I also felt that they felt too much like the guys from Advent Children to a point.
But with my abandonment of the KH mythos and reinventing my characters and doing a complete rewrite, I decided that I’m going to bring them back in.
But not in this format; more likely they'll be acting as Logan's/Hyde's assistants and/or military contacts, but more on all that fun stuff in due time.

with bladed weapons they would have been scary. but you're putting them in the military, and with guns they'd be terrifying. this is just based off appearance, of course... and the fact that hyde, or logan, as you said youd start calling him, is involved.

Mark-MrHiDE-Patten In reply to BloodyFatalis [2011-07-31 13:15:54 +0000 UTC]

Well they're more like hired mercs with their own special traits. Clyde I figured would be more of a pyro and explosives expert, preferring raw chaos to precision, and Heckle would be his opposite as an assassin type who would do things rather quietly. Jekyll would be the thinker of the operation more like, not getting his hands dirty unless the case called for it.

Ah, good ol'retro Patten art! We kind of miss the ultra-spiky, hardcore style you used back in the day, so it's a breath of nostalgic air for us to see this trio. It's also an interesting juxtaposition, combining your old lineart style with your new colouring and shading ability, and the result is very interesting. The naming conventions are also somewhat clever (Jekyll is obvious, but we see what you did with Heckle and Clyde, and we kind of like it), and the masks are a neat explanation of their "remnant" style.

And if you don't mind our saying, they're a heck of a lot cooler-looking than Kadaj, Loz, and Yazoo.

Mark-MrHiDE-Patten In reply to SliverEmperor [2011-07-31 13:11:18 +0000 UTC]

Really goes to show how subtly style can change over the years without me noticing much.
The names come from what my mother called me and my sisters; my little sisters were Heckle and Jeckle, and my older sister and I were Clyde and Hyde.

Well they didn’t get the greatest air time, the movie mainly focused on Kadaj and let Loz and Yazoo to the side a bit.

SliverEmperor In reply to Mark-MrHiDE-Patten [2011-07-31 16:18:33 +0000 UTC]

...Oh, THAT's where you got the whole naming convention from! We just thought Heckle and Clyde were components of "Hyde" separated into two derivatives, but that's a cool way of referencing your siblings...and much less embarrassing than being named after the ghosts in Pac-Man.

True that...although one does wonder what would've happened if all three remnants were able to absorb Jenova's cells. Would there be three Sephiroths, or just one really powerful one? Aaah, the mystery!

man that is fucking awesome. i'm a big fan of Kingdom Hearts and just recently Final Fantasy. i'm not a fanboy though, i am able to accept change very easily because change is good right. i like it when someone like u adds an interesting twist on it all. so yeah i've always admired ur artwork ever since i found it.
