Description
So much for not drawing other people's characters... anyways, this is Gambit from the X-Men.Why Gambit? Well a few reasons
1)He's one of my favourite X-Men (along with Wolverine and Angel/Arch Angel)
2)He's one of Borderline's favourite X-Men
3)He's one of Laura's favourite X-Men
4)He throws cards that explode
5)He has a crazy accent
6)He has a staff
7)He started the "I'm a guy; I wear Pink; I'm not gay" trend.
I'm actually very happy with how this turned out. His mask proved very difficult to draw and his hair was much easier than I originally anticipated. I love how his body and I think the cards were a nice touch. (Fear the pink Outer Glow layer style... ooooh)

Gambit kicks all kinds of ass. And this is a really cute lil pic of him. to be honest I think it would have been cooler though if he had a bit of a meaner look on his face, and maybe had his staff in there too. But whatever, it rocks anyway.

Ah, Gambit with a rather large, bulbous head. What can be better? Well, Gambit is alright, although he is nothing compared to the Askani'Son, Cable. Anyway, lemme point out quickly that Gambit has red eyes, not black. If you wanna fix that, it's pretty easy.

Yes, I realize that Gambit has FLAMING red eyes (which was why all the little orphaned children were scared of him as a little boy) but I do all my eyes in black regardless. Thanks for the comment though

Yes, i know, he can set anything on fire by "tapping into its kinetic energy" oooooh. Haha, I love gambit and since I'm your hero, I think I've done a damn good job then.

I just added a small edit to the picture... I got rid of the sides of his face to make his head a little more angular and less round. I think it looks better this way.

GAMBIT ROCKS. That is an awesome picture. Although my favourite part has to be the ace of spades. It's just...so cool.
But see? You did his hair without problem AND you didn't lego-fy it. (Thank god) All in all, I give him a fucking amazing outta ten. Nice.
Now I have to go. Ho hum.

haha... nice pic and after the whole explanation you gave me about him i actually kinda get who he is. But i mean if his cards explode you wouldn't really want to be in a poker game with him would you cause then BAM you're dead! hehe But seriously the best comic character is definately batman he has such cool gadgets and hello the batmobile!!

Well unfortunately, you're not Mine, Borderline nor Laura's favourite X-Men (nor are you part of the X-Men as far as I'm aware of) so NO DICE!
