Description After watching this scene [link] in Dissidia 012, I got the urge to draw Lightning and Firion! This was lots of fun to draw. I don't ship these two, but I thought it was cute when Firion got all embarrassed about talking to Lightning

Title of this is from the name of the report you need to unlock to see the cutscene.

Con. Crit is appreciated! <3

Ohh! Ohh! Wow! I love the glow and their dynamic poses Caity! Very charming indeed! Now, as you asked, some crits~

Let's start on Lighting, I love the way you colored her hair! but one part of her head seems a little higher than the other, one way you could help even it out is draw the base of the head on a separate layer and draw the hair around it. Since the face is at an angle, her right eye should be a little bit more smaller. Her arms, proportion wise to themselves, are well done! But they seem to be a bit too long for her body. There's a little curvy thing... dip around her right arm (holding her weapon) I think that could be a straight line. Now her hand holding her weapon, it looks like the handle/hilt of the weapon is digging into her palm compared to the way her hand is wrapped around it. Since the handle is pretty big, her fingers could be spread apart more and wouldn't be so long (since most of the fingers are being covered by the handle right?) I like her other arm/hand though ~ so pretty *A*

Alrighty, its Firion's turn! Not much to say about him since the cape is mostly covering him, but the area between his arm and Lightning's arm, shouldn't there be a little peak at his clothes? Something like that I think. His hand, since its holding something thin like the stem of a flower, his grip should be.. bleh it's hard to explain... like, at an angle somewhat? Message me on skype and I'll explain better with an example XD; Nice profile by the way!

Lighting wise! The flowers are the main source of lighting right? (Talking about the flowers, wonderful job on drawing them! Maybe a little smudge or blur to make the coloring a bit smoother? :3) I think as the lighting gets smaller/less the more you go up, the higher area (faces, hair, shoulderish area) shouldn't have such obvious shading, maybe more dark or not so obvious :3 (Lessening the opacity or blurring it a lot would work). I like how certain areas of the clothes nearest to the flowers are glowing at the bottom! It's a nice touch :3 But Firion's flower is glowing, and it's not illuminating his face a little, unless its too far away o3o

Phew, that was a long comment XD Sorry about that! I hope it helped you! <3 If you have any questions just skype me up okay? : D YOU'RE IMPROVING SO MUCH CAITY ;w;
