Description
Fanart of Ardyn Izunia from Final Fantasy XV, aka my fictional husbando I imagined him to be chilling at Galdin Quay, enjoying a curaçao/tequila/blackberry cocktail while distributing some Oracle Ascension Coins to random tourists.

This picture of Ardyn is really lovely! You did a great job on his expression too! and the atmosphere -coulours, light and all little lively details- look awesome! I think that the background don't need to be more detailed, after all, that way we can totally focus on the character and what is just in the close surrounding area.
Oh, I agree, he has way too much layers of clothes... >< but you did well painting them all!
I kind of find Ardyn really interesting to... he's one of the most interesting characters in this game for sure! I think he need even more.. oh, no sorry, I want to know more about him (and them all!).
Nicely done.

Thank you very much for your nice comment!
I'd like to know more about Ardyn too... Both the game and the official guide give too little info about him - and the few we get is contradictory.

That was a pleasure. I really enjoy your work!
About Ardyn, I still wonder if we'll know more someday..? It seems that we have some surprises to come with FFXV... Ther is still a little chance..?

I really don't know, but I honestly wish we could have a DLC fully involving him or something... I mean, a glitch revealed he was initially programmed in a way so he could fight alongside the player as a party guest, just like Aranea does, so... Maybe there's still hope

Have you read/watched videos of theories about Ardyn's story? It's really interesting... and an other theory make me think that we could have a chance to have a DLC with some surprises, I Think we won't have major surprises with Prompto's and Ignis' just some explanations about their own way in the game events. But I read that we'll hopefully have an other 'surprising' one..? Oh, whatever... we have our imagination for now. and there is style hopefully indeed.

This is done really well! Ardyn is my favorite FF villian and one of my favorite FF characters.

I think he's one of the best Square Enix has made in a long time, I know a lot of people will hate me or disagree with me on this but he is a much better enemy than Sephiroth.

Blunell In reply to KamakazeRonin75 [2017-02-11 19:20:54 +0000 UTC]
Indeed, it seems that many FF fans don't want anyone to top their precious Sephiroth I'm new to FF and never played any games before, so I'm not in a right position to judge who's the best villain. (I can just say I've never been impressed by Sephiroth in all the cutscenes and the film I saw, while Ardyn left a great impact on me in only two cutscenes. Maybe FFVII's remake will change this.)

Oh my, what a wonderful drawing of this asshole!
I'm in love with all the little details and his facial expression. FF character designers tend to over-design characters sometimes, but I think Ardyn wears too many layers even by Final Fantasy standards.
To be honest, I thought his head looked a tad bit too big compared to the rest of his body at first glance, but it's probably just the pose. Anyway, amazing artwork! I wish I could do digital painting as beautifully as you do~

Blunell In reply to Amarevia [2017-01-29 23:55:00 +0000 UTC]
Wow, thank you very much for this amazing comment, it made my day!
You're totally right actually: his head is bigger than it should be - and it was even bigger on the early stage of the drawing! (I'm indeed used to draw people with big heads as compared to their size and shoulder width, probably because many people around me are built with these proportions ^^). So I fixed the size at some point, but couldn't adjust it that much because unfortunately, in the program I use, there is a significant loss of quality when I resize something. Blurriness and noise, essentially; and the more I resize, the worst it becomes ;___;

I appreciate the compliment but I cannot answer because I personally don't consider myself an artist, and I still have a lot to learn

He looks totally amazing in your style
I just love how this came out. The shading looks fantastic. Everything about him looks great, his face, his hair, all the detail of his clothes.
I also love the little chocobo thing in his drink.

You're welcome.
I'm still playing it actually. (I keep getting side tracked and just go exploring and stuff instead of finishing the story. XD; )
(I agree!)

Heyyy, so do I (Still haven't beaten the game, and yet I have something like 50 hours of gameplay that were essentially spent on hunts and sidequests.)

Coraleana In reply to Blunell [2017-01-28 08:42:41 +0000 UTC]
Me too! XD I'm also in the 50+ hours and about 90% of that is hunts, sidequests, exploring and riding my Chocobo. X3
