Walk on the Topside

Here you go, DA, your daily dose of 411. u.u
*feeds and kindles and encourages teh lurve*

My creativity had kind of ground to a halt (no new art for, what, 2,3 days? D: ) and none of the projects I had scattered about really caught my fancy, so I decided to just draw some wanton 411 to kick my muse into action. Also did this entirely in Photoshop, which is still a very new program for me; I always use Corel Photopaint otherwise.

I decided to actually look up Vexen's and Marluxia's official 3D-models for reference, which I hadn't done before - I usually base Vexen of off his CoM sprites (because they are so darling) and, er, I hadn't actually looked up Marluxia's refs at all before. (No one will tell! Put a fluffy pink mop on top, and it'll be a Marluxia! 8D )

So this was mostly an excercise in trying to get them to look like themselves, no fancy composition or anything. Also, ph34r the scribbly Castle Oblivion setting! I didn't just slap textures on the background for once!

...
I... really need to stop sitting up all night like this. It's so late it's not even early anymore. ;_;
