LevinBolt (Patreon)

For the first pic of the month, we have Cidolfus Telamon (aka Cid) from FF16 in a piece I’m calling, “LevinBolt”!! 😏

I think this game was an amazing journey for me, and while I did Clive last month, I just couldn't resist the rough, northern Daddy himself, so Cid was a must for me!! 😜

So, I started off this piece the way I’ve been approaching most of them lately, and leaning towards a comic style.

However, when I got to the colouring stage, things went a bit off script... and despite several different attempts, I ended up doing a more painted finish.

This wasn’t the direction I was aiming for with him (which honestly frustrated me a little) but I also know part of this Patreon is for me to learn and develop, and that also includes trying things I don’t necessarily want to repeat, as well as things I do.

So, I steered into a new direction and decided to have some fun with it, and (without spoiling anything in the game) played into the idea of petrification, which inspired a few variants (all of which you Beasts will see in your packs 😉).

As well as these, you Beasts will also have variants with different levels of finishing effects & varying backgrounds, plus all the usual things (4K versions, timelapses, workfiles etc.).

Also for both you Bosses & Beasts, the character suggestions thread is still live and there’s still some time to get your suggestions in (if you’ve not already done so)| before I put the first poll together 😉:

I hope you guys enjoy Cid and thanks so much for your support!!
