Description Back when I first played through Fire Emblem Rekka no Ken, before I finished the game and saw the ending, I imagined a scene of Eliwood putting Ninian's remains to rest in a water temple built by the dragons to show respect for what she was, a scene somewhat inspired by Final Fantasy VII I'll admit.

I am extremely proud of how this turned out. This is my first full drawing that has a real background colored completely in photoshop. Normally I do quick abstract backgrounds. The drawing has over a dozen of layers and uses a lot of Adobe photoshop 7's filter effects such as ripple and different textures.

I would imagine someone making a Megaman X4 parody with Eliwood yelling "What am I fighting for?" Or a Devil May Cry parody with him saying "I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with LIGHT!!!"

Ah yes, cheesy scripted deaths in video games. Where would we be without them? XD

This picture is not okay in so many ways *crawls into a corner*
(Really good, though!)

Beautiful, the texture is lovely and the design I'd utterly fantastic. And the background is so elegant.

Oh wow, this is so gorgeous! You should totally be proud of it. Those reflections in the water, the colors, the sadness...every little detail is impressive. I want to point out every single thing in it and say "I love that part."So I'll spare you the fangirl rant and just say this is a really beautiful piece and I'm so glad I'm seeing it. I love these twoΒ  together.

I really appreciate your comment with your compliments and encouragement. From now on I hope in my future artwork to match the standard that I've set with this drawing. The time and effort is well-spent.
