Description Happy Belated Birthday, !
Happy Birthday to Squall, too!

Sorry I was so late. I knew I said June, and I was so sure I could do it. Didn't expect that said month and the next two were the worst time I'd ever had in my life and I couldn't bring myself out of depression quickly enough.

Anyway. In case you've forgotten about it (understandably), this is the challenge from the last Leon chapter. This is how I envision Eden from your description. Hope one or two parts manage to fit what you have in mind. Oh, and congrats on finishing BCD. Didn't expect that ending. Your toture on Squalleon knows no bounds. Ah well, still looking for more of that in Shadow of the Day. XD

Oh dear God, this is beautiful! Thank you SO much!

So sorry to hear that June was horrible for you. Wish I could do something to assist - a little cheerful pick-you-up. Maybe I'll work on something to that effect.

And Eden looks lovely - but SHIVA... Insert some massive lust here! And Leon! AWWWWGH... so beautiful! Love the details with the Heartless being flung everywhere.

Thank you so much once again! This was WELL worth the wait.

Thank you! I'm very happy you like it. This one was insanely fun to work on, or maybe I just missed drawing for so long. See the decapitated heartless? That was on the spur of the moment, fun. XD Anyway, there is a bigger version I keep on my PC. Available whenever you want it, since it is for you.

PS: Might I ask about Shadow of the Day? How's it going? Can we get a debut soon?
I think there's gonna be a change to how I draw. Less stilled, more actions. Hope Shadow of the Day will provide me with inspirations to accomplish said intent. XD

Wends In reply to thiencna [2011-08-25 22:14:20 +0000 UTC]

I did notice the decapitated heartless! And they're aweeeeesome! It's such a sweet drawing - I'd love to have the larger version, if I might - my desktop antiquated beast of a machine needs a new desktop picture.

IRT Shadow of the Day: I don't have a FF7 guy to really help me hash out my Cloud characterization, and it's ending up being a challenge due to the point in both characters' lives that I'm starting from. The first few chapters are guaranteed to be utterly dull, as they're setting up the environment. But it should have plenty of action in it later (I can't stay away from the stuff) due to my propensity for character mangling. In fact, Zell will probably be our first provider of an action scene, as sad as that is, outside of a dream sequence. But I am working on it - the prelude chapter's just about done.

Just kinda wish I had one of those 'Cloud-expert' characters to do some previewing. Oh well - guess I can post without one. Guess I'll spend a couple days cleaning it up and starting to beat on the first real chapter with a very, very large stick. XD

thiencna In reply to Wends [2011-08-26 04:52:23 +0000 UTC]

Sure. Just give me an email address to send to. Why, I'm running out of places to find it. XD

Zell starting up the actions is quite alright. While Zell and romance is not a combination I usually look for, Zell kicking ass, on the other hand, is awesome in my book. Nothing beats Selphie and her rocket launcher, though. I'm having a mental image of her attacking Sephiroth with that. XD

Mmmn. I'm so excited for it~~~

Mailing linky!



Mwahahahaha. That's an awesome mental picture, by the way. Selphie + rocket launcher = true love. (flings Irvine right outta the picture, much against his will)

Zell's only romantic prospects in my ever so humble opinion are the library girl and a plate of hot dogs. XD

Thank you very much! I take a look at your vectors. Love the Boxer Dog the most. Drawing animals is still a very alien territory for me.

I still can't believe you draw such details with a mouse T_T I seem to have forgotten how to work with one!

This whole picture is epic, but I especially like the poses of squall and shiva. So powerfull!

thiencna In reply to Zolaida [2011-08-24 10:49:56 +0000 UTC]

No small thanks to your part, to be quite honest. You've been making impressive progress lately. There is such a big difference between your recent works and your older ones (tablet or no), and it encouraged me to try to draw better. I remember thinking of your works when drawing the characters' eyes. Wanted them to be half as expressive as yours. XD
