Nyah~~FULL VIEW PLEASE! I was digging through my old files in a CD I unearthed from a box I found in my room and I found my old FFVIII fanfic which I created 3 years back. My fanfic was based on the ending of FFVIII.

In my story, its been 3 years since the events of FFVIII and the cast are being threatened by a new evil which seeks to exploit Rinoa's powers being that she now posesses the powers of the sorceress. To make a long story short, Rinoa was captured in the end and there was a technical mishap during the power extraction process and it caused her to be unable to control her powers. Squall-tachi do show up in the nick of time to witness this after kicking the bad guys butts with some well planned strategy attacks.

Unfortunately,Rinoa's state could not be cured and she began attacking them and the SeeD students who had come with them to help in the rescue mission. This pic was drawn based on the inspiration of the scene where Rinoa finally decides to transport herself into a remote dimension and allow her out of control powers to consume her there. (that's not the ending though I'll let you figure it out for yourself)Cheesy ne~~~ I guess it could be excused since I wrote this when i was about 13 to 14 years old ;;;;

Frankly speaking Rinoa isn't my favourite female character(i don't hate her mind you) to me cause she was a little whiny but I thought that if she grew up a little she would be a really beautiful and somewhat more mature woman^^ hence why i wrote the story.

She looks a little more "filled" cause I tend to draw girls that way and she is older;; Oh well... I dedicate this pic to my dear friend . She gave me a beautiful Squall pic. Go see her stuff^^ its real cool! She's adapted Minekura Kazuya's elaborate style^^ Credit to for the snow BG^^

I drew this in school; in between classes and sometimes during classes i used a mech pencil and a hb lead pencil for the skecth. Please excuse the disgusting colouring/shading i did on the shirt and the pants cause I'm lazy to touch up; Hope you like in Firn^^I suck at these 10 minute screentonings;; and yes my skills need a lot of work. I was aiming a bit for realism this time and yes I KNOW IT DOESN"T LOOK LIKE RINOA that much but I wanted to use my own style in the pic so there you have it;; i don't know why i bother writing such long comments. No one reads these things anyway ;

Time : Bout 2 hours overall
Program: OC3 and PS7 for toning (i suck at toning no matter how simple ><'')
