I got me some new pens and such and i decided to try em out by recreating the concept artwork of the Final Fantasy XIV character Regula Van hydrus.
and i for one think it turned out pretty damn well.
Always been kind of annoyed regarding this dude, he never really got the chance a design this awesome deserved.
He showed up in between expansions, seemingly positioned to become the new antagonist/rival from the Empire, given that the previous one got very deaded not long before, but was all to soon killed of in a really lame fashion to make room for the actual new long running rival in Zenos.
(i really need to start taking more care to get the porportions just right at this stage, the legs are a bit to short here and it throws the whole thing off)
A Shame to, i really liked what we'd seen from his character, he was clearly much younger and a tad more naive then most of the games villains, but with a lot of potential to develop in all sorts of directions.
Nope, super dead tho.
Well either way he'll always look incredibly cool.
I got a bunch of new pens just yesterday and this was largely done to try them out and goddamn a bloody love them, tho i think i may have also gone a bit overboard with em in some places here.
I also got a bunch of pastel colour ones, but this design didnt really give me much chance to use em, being full armor and all.
Did have that spicy looking orange eye in the center tho, god that helmet is cool.
