Description As I said previously, I've been working on catching up with the artwork I owe people. I promised Abi ( ) a piece of birthday art almost a year ago. And, though she asked for something else, this came to me instead. x3 (I hope you don't mind, m'dear. And I'll need your address to send this to ya.)

This is Squall Leonhart from Final Fantasy VIII. He's one of her all-time favorite characters so I decided to pull out some inspiration.

No direct reference used beyond looking up Squall's markings, so it took me a bit longer to get this to appear normal.

I noticed there's not a lot of Squall "realism" out there. I wanted to give this piece a very Advent Children feel to it and I hope I succeeded. I wanted it to look like Squall had just stepped out of the movie.

I used Bristol, 0.05 lead, tissue for smudging, kneaded eraser, a mirror, and an 8B pencil.

Thank you for looking and I hope you enjoy!

Ffff, thanks love. :3 The hair was one of the easier parts. I don't know why hair is easier for me but everything else is HARD.

Haha, same thing tends to happen to me too. Things like hair and feet are fun for me, but other things like hands are not so much. xD You're welcooome~
