Final Fantasy: Redux II

HHHNNNNG.
So I totally kept putting this off -w-

So this is the full size of the drawing I did for the draw it again meme, which was fun! I haven't drawn Sephiroth in a while. I still can't draw him XD

As to the title, the original deviation was called 'Redux', which is a literary term meaniing 'brought back or restored'. I named the original that because I was using their original FF7 designs rather than any of their newer incarnations. I suppose 'Redux II' followed naturally....as this is most definitely 'brough back or restored' XD

I made a lot of changes pose wise, mainly so the poor buggers looked natural, rather than sort of...warped beyond the extent of human contortion...and I zoomed in. Since 2009, when the original picture below was drawn, I've got into psuedo-realism, portraits and facial features more, and decided to showcase that for this redo

So yes, this was tremendous fun. The original file is about three times the sixe (hurgh) but I scaled it down before uploading. Took probably about 12 - 15 hours solid.

Cloud and Sephiroth belong to square enix, not me.

<--- meme I drew it for.
