Favie with no commentie makes Nashi a very sad box of CrackerJaks.

This is one of those pictures that just bursts into your head and won't go away until you've at least sketched it. After which, you want to color it. And then you hope that someone, somewhere, will want to fic it, because you have no idea what the heck is going on.

Yes, that's an Erol. Yes, that's a Torn. Yes, they're tiny. Torn is fifteen or so, Erol's a year younger. They're freaking KG cadets.

I hate how Torn came out. With a passion. Well, except for his hair, that looks good. But he just looks wrong with a smile like that on his face, even if this is a good decade or so before his entire life goes completely to hell. Poor guy.

Erol came out really well, I think, in that he's still pretty recognizable. And short. Gotta remember the short. Erol is barely taller than Jak in Jak II, and Renegade!Jak is like 5'4"--Jak is REALLY short, although he does turn out taller than Erol in the end--so Erol can't be more than 5'6". Therefore, SHORT.

Uh...yeah. Crap salute, I know, but I didn't want to make it look like they were in the USAF or something, so I made it about as different as I could without making them look like they were on the verge of going "SEIG HEIL PRAXIS" or something.

Oh yeah, this picture was colored with much love and affection for my awesome aunt, who got me a Wacom for my birthday/Christmas. Freaking WIN.
