Description Not much to say about this, except Im glad its over. I used alot of guidelines for this one, I wasnt getting some of the effects I wanted so looked up a few tutorials on metal which didnt quite help but I got a few ideas I could use.

I might go back and work the shoulders again sometime soon, add a bit more shine and might fix the hair also *shrug* we will see

14 hrs to paint, Im going to bed now lol

Enjoy

EDIT: I used a fire wallpaper off the net for the background, I hate painting fire. Cant do it. Evil stuff.

It looks great, but the flames don't look enough like flames to me.

I don't see why this hasn't got more views.

I thought you painted in the rest of Sephiroth, even if it was a photo originally?

sephiroth is totally painted (no photo) the fire in the background is a photo which has been tampered with

Why does your gallery not have more favorites?

I'm appalled at the lack of looking for true art on deviantart.

Your whole gallery is one big gold cabinet of win.

Thought you ought to know that <3333

*waddles off to watch you*

I'm surprised this doesn't have more Favs! It's one of the best Sephiroth pics I've seen around here.

My only point to make about it is... I thought Sephy had blue eyes. They look brown here. But I could be mistaken.

I don't know this guy but I've seen many picture about him.
Awesome work!

His expression looks scary but I think it's supposed to be so. He doesn't seem to be one of the good guys.
