This was a monumental undertaking. I didn't realize when we started that each piece was going to end up being rather a separate work of art.
The concept came about when thinking on the 'elements' of the Nobodies in Organization XIII. Most of them are pretty obvious, but the general acceptance is that Xemnas has the power of Nothingness.
But...what the hell is it that he does to illustrate this power? How is flipping around with lightsabers and making force shields the power of nothing?
And so this comic was born.
Also, If you'd like to see the rather amusing originals of Xaldin and Xigbar, we put them up in our scraps here: [link]
I feel so ashamed. I've used background gradients and cheap glow-blurs, as per Saeru's insistance, in the post-production of these drawings. XP
Originally, they were all very nice 100% marker images. However, the cardstock they were rendered on was not a very noticable grain nor tint, so they thus ended up looking like a dirty scan. And once the backgrounds were then cleaned up, they looked too plain. So we ended up with some "enhancements" to pull it all together (albeit cheesily) since you kids seem to like the digital thing. I'm sick of dealing with this piece right now, but I'll revisit its presentation at a later date, once I know how to fix it. :/
On a positive note, I still avoid using black at all when coloring their coats. Just about every color but black at this point. How long can the trend continue?
On an even more positive note, Pooh gets torched. >;D
U-E thought the same thing about Xigbar. WEll, maybe U-E just colored him well, because I keep thinking he's completely spaced out. >.> Then again, that IS his element. ^.^
Yesss. Pooh gets torched. It's all very amusing, but that is my most favorite part... >3 That'll teach you to get stuck in the rabbit hole you good for nothing little...

I sat here for a few minutes thinking of a few sentences to explain the depth of my hate, a few analogies as well, but I think all in all at this point in the morning it'd be better off if I just said: yes. Yes I do.

I think U-E is just trying to keep sane coloring the same organization coats over and over. ^.^
