Description
Drew it a bit ago. Nihil found treasure in an RP a few months ago, now he's going to Skylessia's version of Las Vegas to party with her. Oh, a womanizing treasure hunter who likes to cross dress is with them, too. Him and Nihil are fighting over the girl, of course.Used a picture of the tux for reference, and it came out pretty well, since I only had a dull pencil to use.

So is this his new hairstyle?
/me is looking for hair refs. XD

Well, his hair was like that before, just shorter.
The other pic you commented on is actually really inaccurate in terms of the face, though it gets the clothes pretty well.

Is it possible to get a good face ref, then? 3/4s view, facing right?

Well, I think I could try to draw one, but I've been out of the drawin' mood. I normally draw him facing left or forward, since it wasn't intuitive to cover up the marking on his cheek.

Well, the right-facing business is because player characters generally face towards the left of the screen. I'd rather not have to ruin the details of the mark myself, but FE hack constraints are annoying like that.

There's also characters on both sides of the screen. You can face Nihil whatever direction works better for you, though since you already started the body facing that direction, I guess I'll have to get the drawing in.
Is it really that hard to guess from looking at him facing forward? *genuine curiosity*

No, but your hairstyles aren't very consistent throughout your artwork. That, and you haven't many pictures of his newer design to boot. I'm also terribly anal about getting hair done right. My theory is that at least the hair should look good on a mug, even if the rest is utter crap on a roof tile.

Right. I suppose I just generally go for what I have on this picture right up here. This picture, while hastily done, gets his face pretty much how I see it, so just go with this.

So, yeah(veryeah *shot*).
Here's another preview. Anything wrong so far? (other than missing XII)

That looks awesome.
Well, there's the swords' hilts, of course, that are around his shoulders. Just something to add in later. On the bare spot in his neck, a half-obscured X would be showing. And his eyebrows... the expression is more determined than I would like. Just make him look more sad, since that's kinda how he looks at any given moment. The hair looks pretty cool, and the clothes are pretty awesome.
I have to say, it feels odd to tell you to change something that looks so cooool :E

Hm, for the sake of hack-insertion, I might have to omit the swords in the final product, but I'll definitely add them in for fun's sake. I'm loathe to remove them from the hack-insertable version, though. d: I'll see if I can find a way to make both swords fit without looking awkward. I'll mess with the eyes, too.
d: It's your request. How you want it is how I'll sprite it (to the best of my ability, anyway XD).
