Description This is my work in progress of what I imagine could be an adult version of Alphonse Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist (after he gets his body back of course), after the manga, at age somewhere between 18 and 25 perhaps. I made him stronger looking and narrowed his eyes a little to show age.

Do you know how long it took to get his hair right? I had to resort to copying it directly from the anime! Yes, I was forced to watch Brotherhood again... how tragic. (Because I couldn't be bothered to search online lol).

Why did I give him facial hair? I don't know, maybe as a tribute to Maes? Maybe because he wanted to grow a beard? Maybe cuz that's just how I roll? LOL I dunno. Do you know how hard it is to sketch blond facial hair? GAARGHH!

Why is he shirtless? Hell if I know, you should know me better by now!

He's angry! OH NOES! I wonder why? Maybe someone hurt his brother? Maybe he's just cranky in general at the moment, one of those days? Who knows! I don't. Maybe it has something to do with a kittie!! J/k. Then again, he's also lifting an eyebrow... it could be an unimpressed expression?

Random Bad Guy: Wahaha! Behold my awesome power!
Al: *Yawn*

I still have a lot of work to do here, I do plan to shade it but I'm being lazy at the moment... plus, it's four in the morning, cut me some slack!

*Cough* No, I'm not a fangirl. I'm not, I swear! Lol. I like both Elric brothers equally

(Update)

I shaded it but I think I was a little overzealous with it... I might have to figure out how to color it to fix it lol but I'm not sure how right now, I'm still not used to my tablet.

I like the eyes...

You can really tell it's still him.
Well done!

It's not great and I don't pretend to be a good artist but your words are much appreciated! Thanks! I don't think I like the eyes, they could be better, but I'm too afraid to mess it up if I continue to tweak it... then again, I could always trace my drawing and tweak the copy?

Thanks!

not bad. I get the difficulty with the hair, it's a little unique.
