Description
Man, I managed to pull through and finish! WHEW!!!So here's part one of and I's little art trade, in which the challenge was that each one of us would draw a Final Fantasy character that we'd never drawn before. Silly me had a hard time picking, so I decided I'd draw a better known character and a really random, outta left field character. This is the better known one.
We all know him as the somewhat cocky, laid back Al Bhed leader of the Machine Faction from FFX-2; of course, it's Gippal!
I'll admit that I think he's a cutie pie, but uh... that proly has a lot to do with the voice actor.
ANYWAYS... I tried to make a semi-proper background here. At first I was gonna draw him in Djose Temple fixing a machina, but then I decided I didn't want to go to all the trouble to find a proper screenshot of a machina. So I decided that it would be better to draw him somewhere near to Djose, and of course that would be Mushroom Rock Road, no? Don't ask why he'd be crouching there; he just is.
I hope you enjoy it, it was fun to do! Although I wish I had been braver and tried out some tricky lighting for the colors... or even scarier... LINE-LESS ART!

Gippal!!!!!! Whoooo!
I love this guy! Your line art is so beautiful and clean....I can't believe how quickly you crank this stuff out....it takes me weeks! I must learn from you.
But I love him!
Thanks!

Why thank you so much!
I'm still always trying to get
better with drawing digital line-art, since I'm generally accustomed to drawing rather sketchy. I need to make bold, one stroke lines!!!
I dunno how I do it... I think for me, once I start these things, I feel this intense urge to see 'em through to the end.
Although I will say this line-art was started 2 weekends ago; so it definitely took me at least a week to finish. I'll see if I can do anything else for ya in that respect!
But I am glad you like it!

I hear you with the line art. I love drawing sketches but I feel as though they aren't as well received...and I know that's not the point but meh.
Anyway. Gippal love.

The only thing I know of Gippal is his voice actor and he's cute! I wish I knew more!
I love his eyepatch too =0

It was through Gippal that I fell in love with Rick Gomez's voice acting. And it just so happened that another awesome character also happened to have the same VA... WHICH IS ZACK FAIR!!!!
Gippal is VERY much so a cutey pie! Gotta love his stylish Al Bhed fashion!
I could tell you more, but only if you don't plan on playing FFX-2 (which I wouldn't blame you for not wanting to; it can be a bit weird at times...).

Gippal gained points right away, and I haven't even played his game. Gotta hand it to Rick Gomez. he has such a happy voice!
A lot of people say they don't like it very much, but it still interests me

I love his voice, even though I only know it from... two places!
And X-2 is definitely interesting... While the beginning is a bit strange, how the pieces of the story come together and how the game ends is VERY satisfying. The only bad thing is if you want to see all the endings, getting 100% completion is a pain in the butt! (which I have yet to do...)

Most rpgs start ackwardly, so that doesn't worry me. And side missions...hmmm, I'm used to them by now
