Okay, the recent commissions are almost done, but I just had to go ahead and post this.

This pic is a bit special.

Pretty sure it's the most work I've ever put in on a piece of gift art.

It's a gift pic for David Vincent, Grimmjow's dub voice actor. ^_^ He's a REALLY nice guy that I know through Facebook, and he was even so kind enough to sign my "Espada " pic, and then even to try to get some of the other characters' actors to sign it too. He carried it around with him for about a month, trying to catch some of the other actors!

I felt like, after he went through all that trouble, I owed him. And he really seemed to like the Espada pic, so I thought I'd do something pretty fancy of Grimmkitty for him as a 'thank you'. ^^

About the pic itself, though, I took a shot at drawing "human"-form Grimmjow doing his release pose, and his usual trademark creepy grin.
I was debating on which color to use for the other forms in the background, and ended up using both. *lol* I went with a dark blue for the Adjuchas form (the panther-looking one on the left), and used (mostly) the turquoise for his Resurrecion "Pantera" form on the right. I swapped things around a little for their eye colors, just for a little more continuity.
(Meaning, I used turquoise on the panther's eyes, and dark blue for his Pantera eyes)
