Description Lineart I did today within a few hours. And as usual... Reference used!


----this is not for the collab with *emmil because we're going to draw something else!---

And for the record, it's just a work in progress. I know there are mistakes and you definitely shouldn't go hyper on faving this because it's not done yet. Thank you. (:


So here you go! W.I.P. 2 coming soon (???).

----------------------------------------


Now I need your help with something, so please read this!

I'm planning to draw a background but yet I'm not exactly sure what to draw, so... what shall I do?

Do I have to add a single color background?
A detailed background perhaps?
Or add some clouds? And I don't mean friend-of-Zack Clouds, but just like... sky clouds.

Lemme know what your ideas are (:

----------------------------------------


Coming up soon (I hope):
- 4 new Original characters
- 2 commissions
- right & left hand sketches (I can draw with both )


Enough rambling, this has nothing to do with the lineart anymore. I talk a lot, don't I?


So yeah, Zack Fair from Final Fantasy: Crisis Core.
He is awesome. Or... was. ):


Zack Fair / FF:CC is so totally copyrighted to Square Enix.

I would go with lost of foes around him, so hes you know, checking them out and preparing to strike but nothing to details just outlines/blurry.
Love you

looks pretty good so far. As for the background... *thinks* ... hmm... *it's starting to smoke* ... maybe.. a mix of two suggestions I already read here: a cloudy background with a beam of sunlight shining through and some angel feathers slowly drifting to the ground.

I'm trying to do some fanart at the moment, too. I'm drawing cloud. It will never be as good as yours but at the moment I'm quite proud of myself ^^... but it will take some time to be finished.

Veiz In reply to ??? [2008-05-08 07:02:34 +0000 UTC]

I'd probably put in a grey background with some fog ore misty clouds, as I usually do in my backgrounds. Sometimes a simple background is best 'cause it doesn't take away the focus on the main caracter.

MissGirl27 In reply to ??? [2008-05-08 06:43:13 +0000 UTC]

cool, can't wait to see how it develops. As far as background, it would be cool to see him in a field of flowers, or in the church in the flower garden--something with bright flowers & sky in the background, those seemed to be a theme with him in crisis core XD

Oh, Zack! I adore him! Maybe for the background you could draw something slightly out of focus, to draw more attention to his amazing form!

lol, sky-clouds XD

I'malways all for background, however, make the background detailed in terms of shading, but don't overcrowd it. Let the focus stay on Zack.

Have fun with it, it already looks nice

oh, i'd love to see like a broken brick kind of backround, like all the memories are breaking through or somthing. or burning paper, that would be cool. Whatever you decide...I'm sure it will be beautiful/

witchsayian In reply to ??? [2008-05-08 06:08:11 +0000 UTC]

For the background i was think that in the dark, forest like are with a moon light shining from the corner/side that or verser. Also a lake/pond (don't know why but i think you might need more background for that '>.>

Memo90 [2008-05-08 06:08:04 +0000 UTC]

Hmm... A dark background where there's light around Zack would be cool. You know, that he'd sorta glow. x3'

But what I thought would perhpas be really cool is if you'd do that swirly stuff that's on the cover of the FF VII AC dvd. I mean this stuff [link] which is on Cloud's right side. But put behind Zack.
Sorry for not finding a better reference, but - you being a fan and all I could bet money on the fact that you OWN AC so... xD It's that whatever-stuff between Cloud and Sephiroth in the dvd's coverrrr!

Hope I helped. xD'

Intellectual-vixen In reply to ??? [2008-05-08 06:07:05 +0000 UTC]

As much as it is unoriginal, I'd say stick to a plain background, or one similar to the original pic, because that really emphasises all the damn details that square put into zack and his costume [and by virtue, you will be putting into the drawing 8DD].
Is awesome! Is awesome! He still kinda lives on through Cloud (the legacy of the legacy).

I was grinning like crazy when I saw this WIP of zack in my devwatch <3 I'm so happy :'D

I think a background of clouds will really do well, and maybe to make it a little more exciting either draw those wretched shinra soldiers a bit in the background. D: or maybe just draw a few buildings from the slums <3

Either way anything with Zack in it would be super so finish this quickly 8D I can't hold the temptation to fave any longer ;_;

THEPiNKDiNOSAUR [2008-05-08 05:23:24 +0000 UTC]

awesome I can't wait.
I think a nice blue sky with a couple of cloud are nice. They should part though and have a nice light shinning through and either a single or a couple of feathers floating down like it's heavenly.

kuromeru-no-yochi [2008-05-08 04:58:46 +0000 UTC]

ZACK! I was wondering whenever you're going to draw him
For backround I think cloud sky or storm sky would be good

camera-eyez In reply to ??? [2008-05-08 04:50:24 +0000 UTC]

Personally, Zack Fair is considerably my favorite Final Fantasy VII character. I just adore him and completely admire everything he comes to represent through out the story. So, to know that he is to be one of your projects is just beyond awesome.

As for the question pertaining to the background, how about a reference to the scene of the Banora trees and/or the burning 'dumbapple'. There seemed to be a lot of symbolism in that on instant.



-A-

lol I've been watching "Lost Order: FF7" so yay! Zack!

As for the BG, I think that his grave (is that what it is?) in Advent Children would be good. You know where Kadaj kicks the Buster Sword and Cloud rights it. Or Midgar...

Or perhaps, some stormy clouds in the background; he looks like he's anguishing.

Or stormy clouds over Midgar ^-^

MagicoffMusic [2008-05-08 04:12:38 +0000 UTC]

excellent drawing. i don't know where the scene plays off. but if it is night. You might can do a sky what looks like the night.
if it is sunset than a sunset.
or on the beach.
awww well that are the only ideas i have now .

Vivache In reply to ??? [2008-05-08 03:31:12 +0000 UTC]

I'd say that he looks like he needs to be stepping through something. A portal, something. I've never played FF, so I couldn't say anything related to the games.
Hope I helped!

Zack was an awesome character from what I've heard of him.
Never got the chance to play FFVII and working on getting Crisis Core right now...
But he seems awesome.

Your fanart is amazing...
Background? I'm not sure...
Maybe a scape similar to where the sword is in Advent Children?
That would be amazing, I think.
