Yeah, so today, while reference hunting for pictures of Sephiroth, I decided to change my method behind the way I planned on drawing him for a couple of reasons. One being I'm running low on giant, high quality paper, so a full-body life size drawing is a bit out of the question. Besides, nobody seems to know how tall he is exactly, and for me, that's very pertinent information. I don't want to draw him at 6'2" if he's really like . . . 5'8". That's a six inch mistake.
Second, even in the movie, Advent Children, which I own and have painstakingly picked through, they never give a clear side-view of his face, which I want to use as a reference to get his features accurate. The reason being that his bangs are constantly in the way. And I don't care how much lover you are of that game or Sephiroth, I don't care if he was prenatally injected with Jenova cells . . . that hairdo is the source of his power.
Sidetrack: I really need to play that game again, but every time I do, I start to feel seasick. Which is odd, because I've never even been near the ocean while playing that game. I think its because the graphics hurt my eyes. They always did.
Third, there is never a good clear shot of the back of his coat thingy, and I really don't want to have to call up someone I kinda hate just to take a look at the back of his last-years con' costume.
But anywho, I found, nestled in the action-packed four minutes Sephiroth is on screen, attempting to kick Cloud's whiny ass, (I like Cloud, don't worry . . . I just think his name would be better in German, Wolke,) a little 1/2 second screen shot of Sephiroth coming toward the camera, sword ready, a great look on his face and motion blur. And I thought to myself I've never drawn motion blur before, nor have I worked through blur to make it slightly clearer. So . . . because I need more fanart for an Artist's Alley at an upcoming con, I've decided to go with that shot, because I have a reference, but I still have a lot to interpret on my own.
Oh, and in case you're wondering, for every piece of fanart I have, I have at least three pieces of original work. I just choose not to put originals online for whatever reason, but will be showing them at aforementioned Anime Convention.
So that's it! I might do WIPs on this one . . . I dunno. If I do, expect the first on tomorrow night!
Mood: Eager

This week I'm featuring the art of my super awesome cousin,

She's got an imagination so big, sometimes I don't think her head can contain it!

Create a system any fool can use, and only a fool will want to use it.
Life isn't always fair, but it shouldn't cheat that much.

If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it is yours. If it doesn't, it never was. -Unknown
I'll say sorry tomorrow, but tomorrow is today, and it's all over, and we have no more time to play. -Me
