Fang, from Final Fantasy XIII.
there is no spoilers in this description

What was cool when I did pics from FF7 was at this time the CG characters weren't realistic at all, so It was not such a big deal to bring on the paper a more realistic version of Tifa, for example.

Now, FF13 ... DANG.
In the same time I was coloring this pic I was saying to myself "Hey, but, that will NEVER sounds more realistic than the one from the video game ! It's impossible !"
So hell yeah. too bad. I did my best however

My version of Fang is enought close to her original video game avatar. I do remember that when I saw the character I knew there was nearly ANYTHING to change.

-------------------------------
The way she hang the staff is not good. her left arm must be raised a lot for more credibility. From the way it is actually I have the feeling the staff has a veryyyyyyy poor weight.
But, gee; well I don't think I will edit that.
next time, I'll seriously need to take pay more attention to that kind of detail.

Holy crap! That is quite close to her in-game model! Not sure about the detail, but hey, still better than anything I could draw.

Mmm, to think videogame visuals have come so far... and yet storytelling and gameplay still fluctuates wildly.

Fantastic work!!!! it might not be as real as the original Fang, but I can tell is as interesting as her, and as much personality as well!! it might even be Fang´s younger and lighter version. You know, after the first time she... well... dunno if I can say some spoilers here!! hehehe... so you got it, right?
Marvelous work as ever!!

Okay, since there are no spoilers, then you made me picture this: a younger Fang, the one who was just a bit older than a teenager, already strong willed and determined, and cheerful and playfull, but with an innocent look in her eyes, the one that was stolen after her transformation to ragnarok and crystal. YOU made me see that. THANK YOU!!!

Well that's basically a sultry character, so It's not that hard to work with that point

Not a FF fan but an excellent work. She looks like an 80's rockstar.

It's good, don't worry about it Just act menacing, raise your fist in anger and say in a low, grainy voice: I'll catch you next time, Fang. NEXT TIME!

HardToFindAName [2010-04-24 11:16:06 +0000 UTC]

Pas joué au jeu, mais j'adore ce dessin Les couleurs surtout sont très vives et très bien choisies (je ne sais pas si tu as repris celles du jeu ou bien modifiées)
Le fond d'écran est très réussi aussi je trouve (l'idée des murs métalliques avec sa réflection sur le sol donne super )

J-Estacado In reply to HardToFindAName [2010-04-24 19:19:58 +0000 UTC]

Ouais plutot respecter les teintes. Comme je dis sur ce coup la j'ai pas fait trop de freestyle
.
Le fond est celui qu'on voit depuis quasiment 5 ans dans toutes les previews du jeu

She does look prettier than the images I've seen of her, if I may dare to say. Wonderful work! You gave her also a sweet yet a sexy look.
