"Anyplace but those I know by heart"
I swear I will cut this out any day now (mind, probably when Professor Layton arrives and I have something to distract me) - having run out of non-spoiler fanart ideas for WEWY, I decided to finish off a piece for its sister-franchise, Kingdom Hearts. This one's been sitting around as a half-finished piece of line-art since, hrm . . . October 2006?

It's been a while.



Why I keep thinking that watercolours are an appropriate media for something I intend to distribute digitally I have no idea. I know my scanner's less than kind to the stuff.

Sora's outfit, by the way, is vastly simplified. I can't match Nomura in the insane level of detailing he's capable of so Sora got divested of a few collars and belts so he wouldn't make the other two look too plain.

Non-mathematical perspective is my new best friend.

You see, it's just bad all over that you imply that we ought to encourage you to buckle down to your dissertation instead of drawing. We're bloody weak-willed and would rather look at the pretties. ♥

My dissertation involves invisible light displays and the high chance of electrocuting myself and teaching small children how to electrocute themselves. You got to admit you sorta want to see that too, right?

In relational order:

Yes, because I'm perverse,
Only if I was exceedingly annoyed with you,
It depends on the child, of course.

If you kludge them all together into a mega-event, I'm willing to make fresh popcorn and caramel apples. ♥

STORY OF MY LIFE.

Also, this is great. I love the tophat held on by a big frilly ribbon.

I keep thinking 'when I upgrade my scanner it'll be better' but no, no it won't, because it's still going to be a flat scan on textured paper and it really doesn't like that sort of thing.

Kairi looks so happy! You just want to smoosh her. Also I love her top hat :3

The thing I keep thinking about Kairi's outfit is "it's a good thing she's incorporeal right now or she'd never get that thing through doors".

I love the outfits for all of them, especially the little spirit whispies around Kairi.

Much love, and I know what you mean about Nomura's love for excessive details. >0_o< It would be interesting to see what he would come up with if he was forced to go back to simpler designs again, after he's been left to his own devices for so long.

What's worse is his style's spreading. Apparently Akihiko Yoshida decided to try and copy his style for FF12, hence the surprising amount of random clothing item combinations some characters were wandering around wearing (I AM LOOKING AT YOU, BASCH FON RONSENBURG).

I've had this open for a few days now to comment, and occasionally just grin at it for a few minutes. I love Kairi's dress, I love Riku's little tail and how Sora and Kairi are grinning like idiots and Riku is just kind of smirking along. With fangs.

Hee, Riku has fingerless gloves. ♥
