Description
Be you hero or child, to live without regrets is to live without ever learning.[Bury your ghosts.]
To me, Sora didn't seem to change very much over the course of the games. He did grow more confident, stronger, and learned to follow his heart, but when fighting you're forced to act or be hurt. But after everything is done... there will be a lot of time for him to think.
Edit: (cutting and pasting from what I said a few comments down...)
To me there are many types of a hero's journey: doing great deeds, over coming great obstacles, defeating great odds, etc. But my favorite is when the hero has to face something about himself, a defeat of his own ego... which Riku goes through. I suppose that's why Riku's my fave in that regards. xD But Sora is a wonderful protagonist! His brand of optimism is hard to find in characters these days (considering Squeenix). After the battle, though, he'd probably wonder if everything he did was the right thing - although there is no "right" or "wrong," just things that had to be done.
Etc. *ends babble* D:
Sora with fireflies. (Count em.)
I did this a few days ago, but didn't want to post it until I did my Triptych: Riku picture so the Destiny Island Trio would be nice and lined up with each other in my gallery. XO!

Very beautiful!! So much emotion in it. I see that there are 12 fireflies. Do they repersent Org. XIII? I though that when I counted them. I was wondering why not 13 but Sora is "kinda" the 13th one.

Oh my God, you have to stop being so amazing. Cut it out. Right now.
12 fireflies, awwwwww...
Really, though, such a beautiful piece. It's the darker, less confident side of Sora we don't often see. I just wanna pat him on the head and say, "It's alright, tiger, you did great!"

This is an excellent piece. What I like most would need to be the textures. I love the way the background seems almost to dissolve while Sora's skin is smooth and slick as though he'd just emerged from the water. His scratchy hair is perfect, too. Excellent stuff.
I love the solitary moment. He seems to always be with someone... always has an innocent outlook and in this piece he seems to be thinking about something and enjoying his moment alone. Very cool. *nod*

It looks awsome. I must fav this!
Heh, I like both Sora and Riku but I think I like Sora more because of his positive attitude and the fact that he can a be a child at hard, no matter what he goes through.

Pretty colours *u*
Sora's pretty much the same guy, but that's why we love him!! Loyal and determined, like a great protagonist~
My gosh, Destiny Island is so hard to draw xD

It is XD That's why it's all blobby and dark.
