Aeriseph - Come Here

Edit: made the image a bit brighter as per request of #ThePencilClub

Comment before you favorite, please. I value comments far higher than favorites!

Used the following stock image ([link]) by ~PeterKoevari as a reference. I changed the angle a bit, among other minor things.

One of my favorite pairings, Aeriseph (Aerith x Sephiroth, of Final Fantasy VII fame). Once more, the camera ate the drawing, and I also didn't center it right. Aerith came out great, and she's still (sort of) recognizable even with her hair down. Seph on the other hand... For the record, this takes place in a Crisis Core-type universe where Aerith has been aged up a few years (canonically there's an eight-year age difference: at the beginning of CC, he's 23 and she's 15. So, squick).

I do like how their hair turned out, especially hers. The shading... not so much. That line extending almost vertically from his shoulder is actually her hand on his chest, but I left it like it was as more of a suggestion (and because I fail at drawing hands more often than not).

Interestingly, I've never posted a drawing of Sephiroth where his eyes were open.

Please don't be too harsh. I am well aware that this could be a lot better.

Drawn with a no. 2 mechanical pencil and smoothed with a paper stump. Some postwork in Photoshop.
