KH2: Consumed by Shadow

PLEASE FULL-VIEW!!

EDIT: After watching and reading spoilers about Birth By Sleep, I've decided to change the meaning behind this piece.

ORIGINAL MEANING:
I was inspired after watching a few clips of Anti-Sora lopping around and thought to myself, "Self, I've never drawn any Anti-Sora fanart before. Perhaps now's a good time to start." Good idea, self. Here's Sora being consumed by his inner shadow.

OTHER MEANING (SPOILER):
You could say that the left side is Sora and the right side is Vanitas, Ventus' sinister evil half. I think it works perfectly!

HERE ENDTH THE SPOILERS.

The style I was going for was kinda oil painting-ish. Did I succeed or fail at life? TT_TT

I think I'm getting better with hair! Horray! Compare this to my first "realism" Sora picture and you'll see a WORLD of difference: [link]

Also, let me know if I failed at the chain. I'm still not particularly good at drawing metal.

Here's the progress shot of this piece: [link]

Anyway, I'm hoping hoping hoping to finish this Riku piece I've been working on for months. Here's a progress shot of it: [link]

Happy New Year, folks!

Sora is owned by SquareEnix, but the model reference is Zac Efron and he owns his face.

EDIT: It was suggested that this piece could be improved by blurring the hair a bit, which I agreed wholeheartedly. So let me know if there's any positive difference at all! ^^
