IN WHICH I TOTALLY TRY TO IMITATE NOMURA'S ART STYLE.
Tools: OpenCanvas 4 art program, and Wacom Tablet (Model ET-0405A-U)

There were a lot of things I wanted to do with this picture, but in the end I only had Sora, Roxas, and Riku. I considered adding Axel but it'd look off balance if I added him on the right, and I'd have wanted to erase Roxas and move HIM to the right, and Axel be at the center top. But that would take a lot more time. ;_; And I didn't want to erase what I did for Roxas! So here it is. ?

I also tried a lot of backgrounds (lots of sky and clouds, blah), but in the end I tried making it look like the weird area in the end of the game (when you have the last battle). Still, there is a lot of room for improvement... and as a friend said, "grayscale makes me think they're lost in a cold forest - OMG 1 BLANKET" XD;

I think I like how Riku turned out best. He was the first one I finished coloring, too. ...oh Crud, I forgot the hood-tassles. o_O To be edited in later. (!)

Thank you to those who gave me advice as I worked on this!


Also... if you haven't heard....

I can't wait for Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+ and Re:Chain of Memories [<---link]!! New cutscenes, and fights, and enemies... and then a whole remake of KH: Chain of Memories for PS2? Oh joy! Out in Japan, spring of 2007, and I SINCERELY hope that we get it in the US too. People are trying to contact Squeenix [<--Link!] (via phone/email/snailmail) to say we support releasing the Final Mix in the US. That'd be excellent!

So excited.
