Description Guilty Gear Furrified continues with my rendition of Zato-1 now officially Eddie.

I chose Eddie (Though it's really Zato-1) to be a panther simply because he is associated with shadows. Panthers have their place in myth as being shadows. Plus they are specialists in ambush; which Eddie is also a specialist in. (Zato is an assassin after all.)

Oh boy..this one was a real trial. Everything is freaking black!! Eddie and Zato are both black. That's the downside of sticking with a panther. It's really hard contrasting zato from Eddie. Both kinda melded together.

In Eddie you'll notice (I hope you do anyway) some human skulls forming from out of the shadow. Now even though I am furiffying the Guilty Gear group; there are traces of human in them. Believe it or not; one character in the entire series I am furifying remained human. Somehow the idea of humans being an enemy of the Guilty Gear furs sounds intriguing.

The human is: That Man. Yes he remained human. And Eddie here is a result of a Gear experiment. The human skulls I think could have stuck out better. This is an example of trying hard to make two shades of black contrast from one another.

Quite a nightmare IMO. Hope the next character I do does better.

Zato-1/Eddie is (c) to Sammy.

WOW! This is just amazing! I know how difficult black can be, I'm a pixel artist. XD I've tried to pixel something black [hair, I think it was?] against black clothing....Did NOT work out well. XP You did a better job than me, though!! <3

Learning how to cope with different shapes of black is all about trial and error. I've seen people do far superiors jobs to my pic here; and it's all all earning process.

Oh, I think this is my favorite one, yet! ;D I really like the human skulls, they look very creepy yet, somehow, in despair. At least, to me they do. A panther really suits him, too.

shinragod In reply to ficetee [2009-02-09 05:14:47 +0000 UTC]

You're pretty right on about the skulls. Eddie is a sort of Gear that feeds on sorrow. No doubt despair is what I had in mind.
Glad you ended up liking it. I didn't at first as much as my previous one. But lookint at it again; I can see how well it turned out in the end. ^_^ Thank you.

Even without knowing the real character I can say the panther suits him damn fine, based on this alone! XD

Gotta love your passion for keeping it real with the animal-picks for each GG-character!

Thank you Silversis. My goal is to make sure that even if you are not familiar with the series; the snimal form can sum up the character well enough.
And apparently, I did my work. ^^
