Description This is my first offering for this year's Big Bang Challenge on lj: [link]

The image is intended to be a cover piece for LadyNorbert's story Triumvirate: [link] . This story is a fill-in-the-gaps story for the period around the Ishval war with Royai and Maes/Gracia. It's a very well written fiction and I would suggest giving it a read.

The other artist on our team was and she did this piece for the story: [link]

I actually worked on this one for a very long while, and while I enjoyed the way the lines turned out I do wish I was a little bit less like a colourblind rat when it came to blending and adding colour. I may post the line work itself and see if anyone else could do a better job colouring! (Which I'm sure someone could...)

But, anyway, it was a pleasure working on this year's big bang challenge, I was very lucky to be working with two dedicated and talented people I hope I've made this is easy on them as they have made it on me.

Hey, I just started this fic today! Cool coincidence. ^_^

I really like the way you drew the characters here. If I had a critique, however, it'd be that the picture is REALLY dark; the ground, the sky, and the title are very hard to distinguish from each other, and the characters kind of blend in.

Nice! You did a great job on this - you totally 'got' all the characters both in looks and body language. I'm still impressed how you can do this right on the computer. It came out really well and I know Lady Norbert will love it.

You'll have to give me a tutorial on how I get your user icon into my description on that picture. I can't seem to get it to work!

Thank you, I'm very pleased that you think so :>

The icon thing is actually quite easy once you've got it down! You simply put :icon seeinblackandwhite: using my name as an example, just delete the space I put between 'icon' and the used name and it should work :>
