Description Edit

Yes, I kept the original sketchiness, because I felt it looked better that way. I also could not get a version without the original artist's watermark, but I didn't want to get rid of it either. Ultimately, this is their work. I'm just elaborating on it. ^^

/Edit

I am quite possibly too deep in the delirium of sleep deprivation to know what I'm doing, but I think this turned out very nicely.

Leon S. Kennedy, courtesy of Resident Evil.

Where in the future, we get big guns, bigger problems, and sexier men. Isn't that how it always goes?

Mr. Kennedy truly fits into this mold. Nice gun, nice biceps, intent on whatever he's about to shoot to death, and...yes, now you know why I wanted to color this one first after browsing *Fox4859 's gallery. There are quite a few RE fans out there (*Artxet being one of them).

The ORIGINAL lineart belongs to *Fox4859 , and can be found here: [link]

Color is all me, and the fine figure of Leon Kennedy belongs to Nintendo Capcom. The point is, he doesn't belong to me.

Note: I asked *Fox4859 via note if I could color some of her work first before I even touched it. This is my policy with every work I color that is not mine. I encourage others to do the same, otherwise it is stealing, which is not even cool.

Always ask first! Some will say no, but most will actually give you the go-ahead, so long as you give credit, and some of them might ask you to note them the colored version.

Course that's how it goes! Where would the world be without our awesome heroes? And I there has to be somehere else I can go to besides the Fire Emblem world(s) all the time. But both fandoms have unreasonably good looking men, so, no complaints here.

I have a severe itch to play RE4 now.

I should have mentioned to you that Resident Evil is property of Capcom, sorry. = P

XD

Yes, moar sexy men, and not all of them are in Fire Emblem. Some do dwell in Resident Evil, like Mr. Kennedy.

Hehe.

Mistake has been fixed.

You did absolutely awesome on this!!! I love it!
It always makes my day when someone likes my art enough to color it, and color it well at that!
Keep up the awesome work!

I'm glad you love it! Though, of course, had there not been awesome lineart to work with, the color would have been crap, so it all goes back to you!

*is jealous, and wants to know how Fox does her art so well*

Supernatural colors shall be next.
