Now I'm
tuggin on this line, but I can
never gain any ground.
For the
selfishness I've displayed, there's a
punishment that I've found.

i'm tired.
for the contest at *AnimeVectorArtists . three color palette.
grey value #'s 000000 FFFFFF (uhdur) and red #390B0D. total color count was 6447 with the gradients. that's like four ten-thousandths of the 24 bit 16mil. i think we call that a "swish." *dunk gesture*


a lot of ladies probably won't like this. fuck them. i think it's hot. one of the things that drew me to Greed was that he wasn't SUPER KAWAII GAYBOI HIGHSCHOOL CLUB GEAR BISHOUNEN in every shot. he looks drawn here, worn out. and he is. minutes before his death in Dante's mansion. i'm not -that- old (like over thirty; no offense) but sometimes i like men who are. anyone who knows my original project is probably aware of this. and that i like even stranger things and i don't wanna hear it if you don't like my red-headed Greeds. grey, blue, or brown are sucky black hi's. purple is worse. *spletcchh* except on chick characters.

but here's Greed. Raw Deal was the MBD song i repeated a couple of times when i was finalizing it. posting the lyrics ain't enough... ain't about the lyrics... well a little... but they're not much without the fuckin geet'rs wailin' in the background. i told u i wz addicted D:

full res is available on "Download." yes, the actual full res. i worked pretty small this time around. i remember why i don't do that now. i started at 3:30 AM, finished at six. i don't trace. Greed is property of the rightsholders to the series to which he belongs and i am depciting him face-to-name without permission like i have done many times before. BREAKIN' THE LAWW BREAKIN' THE LAWW.

ref uploaded. it is RITE HEER.

the nose and jaw are what drew me to the ref. thanks for likin the colors, i was tossin around whether or not i should just use the purple in his eye as my third color choice but the black and red gradient sufficed just as well. besides "black white and LILAC!" would've been kinda ghey.

he does have the most delicious bone structure X3
I think the grey for the eye adds to the affect, the bleakness!!
poor bunny, he looks so pale *wanders off to find him some blood*

One of the reasons why I like Greed is because of the fact that he isn’t bishie boy pretty but manly man hot. I just don’t understand what’s so attractive about girly bishie boys anyway; they’re too skinny and look like girls minus the boobs.

Other then that mini rant, LOVE for this. I love his big nose and chin. It’s nice to see serious artwork of Greed for once other then him having his trademark grin. You did an excellent job with the vector. I actually like his red streaks, it’s very appealing. The line art is very smooth too and the gradient background fits well with the image.

Splendid job.

i had to use a gradient D: i couldn't use my trademark 25% grey because IT WOULD'VE COUNTED AS A COLOR CHOPICE ARRRGH
so i'm glad this works out.

MANLY MAN HOT FTW! o/\o *hifive*

thank you. haggard was the appeal for this. it'll surely only draw well-rounded peoples.

I love his expression
He looks like a scientist, a cruel one.

Maybe hes looking at someone hes doing a little "research" on

Thats what i see
I love this, ill defiantly add it to my faves
