Ivan by warmfuzzyninja on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Anybody remember the little-known, best ever game called "Golden Sun"? This is everybody's favorite midget Jupiter Adept, Ivan. I've been replaying the game (third replay, I think...), and I felt the need to do fanart for something, so this was convenient.

I meant to chop off part of the top so Ivan wouldn't be stuck at the bottom with a bunch of negative space floating around, but I painted the background before I remembered... so I guess his placement is symbolic of his height? o_O

This was practice coloring anime-style pictures, because half of the reason why I don't really draw anime-style is because I don't know how to color it properly... I guess I did a half-decent job.

The lightening in the background looks stupid because you can't even tell what it is. >_< I was too lazy to look up any reference pictures to see how to light up the sky or anything... Oh well.

No, I have no idea where his neck went, thank you. D:

I'm mostly updating this to update, since I was away from home for four weeks, and I haven't updated since early May. So don't be hateful. D:
