Human Red XIII

Drew Red XIII from Final Fantasy VII as a human for the contest. I've noticed a trend in my original costume designs, they tend have colored cloth that fades to white and a braid somewhere. XD

Water color pencils again, I spent most of yesterday working on this thing. -_- Drew the head to small at first but had already added too many details to want to start over so I had to redraw the legs and other body parts over 5 times to try to get the proportions acceptable. Still not completely happy with it though.

Tried to tie in most of the original character design as I could while still giving him a new look. The only thing I think I would change if I did it over would be the belt, and perhaps the foot and hand blades. I just added those in so his human form could still have the same fighting style of doing front flips in front of the enemy and still do damage. XD

Best. Mullhawk. Ever.
