Description
...Though it doesn't count as privacy when they know you're watching, not that Cloud seems to mindMy tribute to the two most drool-worthy guys in gaming (well there's lots of others, should I should just specify the ones in Final Fantasy at least). I know these guys are very popular, particularly Cloud, and I know there others who like seeing them together as much as I do
This is the first time I've done something like this even though I have loved the stuff for ages now and watch tons of artists who frequently draw this sort of stuff
I decided not to use the Mature Content filter as I did want it to be "safe" to view for a wider audience. So hopefully no-one has a problem (and the fact it's "gay" doesn't count as a valid issue
Cloud and Squall character designs belong to Square-Enix. This artwork was illustrated by myself and is not to be used, modified or sold without my permission

Hah, that may be an adequate and well-holding allegory in terms of numbers, but may easily fall prey to the fangs of sex and -ism.

And they work for this very well I think

Holy smokes. Them boys be lookin' fine.
The lighting's nice, and I like how you got the texture of the leather just right.
Something is a bit off with Cloud's face, I mean it's fine technically but... it just doesn't look like him.
Other than that, much love for this. Good work.

Thanks for the compliments Well at least the face isn't wrong wrong (for once
) But if it looks different it's because I wanted him to look a little more mature and confident here, plus he's smiling for once

Ja, he certainly does look older than he's usually portrayed, so you achieved that.

LOL!!!!
And I was wondering.....what are those two people are up to?
But I think I know now....
Being different isn't that bad!
Now, the deviation itself is really good. The shading is amazing and the colours suit with the theme. The only thing that seems to bother me a bit is their eight-packs and their chests. They seem a bit unnatural. It might be the glittering effect you've used, making them appear wet and a bit too bulgy.
If there is anything you'd have to fix this time, it would be this. There again, their facial expressions are really nice and the background very detailed. So, the outcome pretty much covers these small trivial "mistakes". Also, very interesting hair styles! (I guess that's what counts in a picture!)
Bravo!
(I just hope this wasn't the Christmas present to your watchers! I might complain later if that was!)

Chromattix In reply to 20Tourniquet02 [2012-12-10 22:59:26 +0000 UTC]
Technically they're still six-packs. The bottom two are just groin muscles (I think, I'm still no anatomy expert ) They were a bit more subtle early on but I couldn't avoid the temptation to highlight them more to bring them out
Glad you liked the rest of it though

20Tourniquet02 In reply to Chromattix [2012-12-11 00:07:39 +0000 UTC]
Actually, that's what they mostly do in anime guys! They highlight all of the muscles the human body has!
It's a splendid artwork![Even though I'm not drolling for some reason!

Cloud seems to have spent a lot of time and effort in the gym lately. With very substantial results.
I would have still been impressed if he had only half so much muscle; he's fine both ways, but a little more scary like this.

Chromattix In reply to LancelotPrice [2012-12-10 22:33:47 +0000 UTC]
Lol, I just assumed that body would come from weilding that huge-ass sword around all the time Though the "real" Cloud does seem to be skinny-bodied (more like me I guess, I'm not ripped either
)
When it comes to muscle-amount this is the most I can still find attractive. I hate it when things start going all veiny and Hulk-like Plus it depends on the face too, even with muscle I think Cloud looks harmless, though in real life the gym junkies usually have bulky jaws, shaved heads and the eyes of someone who looks like they want to murder you

LancelotPrice In reply to Chromattix [2012-12-11 00:32:18 +0000 UTC]
Those guys don't know when to stop. Veiny I don't dig, and there is such a thing as too big; it starts getting too large to be impressive when it looks as though their joints will break if a muscle twitches.
Even Siegfried from SoulCalibur didn't get that much muscle from sword swinging.
Cloud and Squall as you've portrayed them here really are at the outer edge for me; I really prefer a bit lighter. I wouldn't want a boyfriend who could crush me easily.

Yes, I've finally lasted a month without being sick again
Though my voice has been permanently ruined I think. I can no longer make high-pitched noises or character-imitations without sounding like a 14 year old with their voice breaking

YAYS! that's always good thing not being sick never thought I would hear a man complain his voice is no longer able to pull off high pitched so the solution to not being able to do high pitched to is to take the opposite octave don't you think? and if your sounding like a 14 yr old who is going through voice changes when you do higher pitches use it to mess with telemarketers , I personally still get them asking me if my mommy is home , just so long as I don't actually get woke up at an ungodly hour ( not exactly sure why anyone would brave waking someone at 8 am or even calling a home before noon) I happily play with it

I like imitating and quoting cartoon characters quite often, so many have high-pitched voices Plus I like to meow back at my cat when she meows at me, just to mess with her
Everytime someone I don't know calls or knocks on the door I get my mother anyway. She's the decision-maker for all that kind of crap, and better at telling them "No, I'm not interested!"

pfft lucky! , my mom can be fooled to buying volcano insurance ( and amazingly there was actually someone who tried that stunt ) that and me and mom living in the same house is hazardous to my sanity I like being just sane enough to be hatter thank you very much add mom into the mix and I start bad habits

This was supposed to be a November submission (as I want to do one of those Summary of art memes and I had one for every month until now) but it did take longer than I thought, which was made worse by the fact I barely got a few hours a week I could even work on it. Still, I'll have to slot it in there anyway, most of the work was done last month
I tried my best with the leather too. It's a very difficult effect to get right but I have a lot of fun trying

I remember before I added their jackets in I could see more of their arms which sorta showed the direction they were going and made sense to me at the time But afterwards a lot more was covered up and it does sorta look like their hands are floating there I guess. Couldn't figure out a way to improve that.
