SciFi and Fantasy Art: Manga Xepher

This's Xepher, Xicanti's twin brother. He began as a picture of Squall Leonhart, from Final Fantasy VIII, but I decided to change my goal as soon as I had the face done. It didn't look too much like Squall, I decided, but give a little more hair... it's Xeph! And so, it became Xeph. As I've already mentioned, Xepher and Xicanti are twins, so this is essentially what Xic looks like, too. The only real difference is that his eyes have slitted pupils, like a cat's. He's also not as evil looking. Granted, Xeph isn't either, but that's how the picture turned out, so I guess I'm stuck with it now! Just think of it as being Xeph on a *really* bad day. I also have a version of this picture with just the eyes colored in green, which I may post at a later date. For now, I'll just leave you with this one.

Actually, Lin, most of it's from imagination! It's another one of those armature type things. Squall gave me the face shape and the eye position; the rest is me. ;-) Well, my pencil, actually. It did all the actually drawing... I was just the one on the end telling it where to go...

Ya see! I told you you could do manga! Ok, maybe not from imagination yet, but work on it, and you will be able too. 2

Yup, Anj, this's. He looks less girlie in 'real life', tho. The style makes him look more feminine than he actually is. The nose's also a little off, but not as much as it has been during previous attempts!

Of course it is me the guy you love Anja! Are I not handsom?! J/K-ing! Very Very Awasome pic Em. Exactly how I saw him too!

THAT'S the guy I've fallen for?! Kewl! ~*~Anja

*to Em* Ok! The more male the better! 12 *to Xeph* Funny, you're not quite this open on the RPG! 10 ~*~Anja

It sure is, Anja! 'Specially the nice, big ones, with good muscles and long hair! ;-) BTW, does anyone who might want to comment on this picture see a resemblance between Xepher and Leo? It's NOT something that I want, but I've been going paranoid lately in thinking there is. Lini insists there's not, but I'm still not sure. Does anyone else see it, or am I just ultra-paranoid? I'm desperately hoping it's the latter...

No, its ok your not going paranoid, it doesnt look anything like Leo to me. Releaved? I hope so! Well this is wonderful art, i would so love to be able to colour, but i am obsessed with shading in pencil or my trusted fountian pen, the best in the world!
