because vice is vice which means vice's viceness is NICE. and his shoes are a little messy too. it's vice-aronni! shirotsuki's stupid tree thing (as quoted from tanchou) character from her story cross canticle. go check her out on deviantart if for some stupid/crazy/insane reason you haven't! her art's the bomb, the shiznat, and the awesomes all packed into one! she's really nice too. :V just like vice's viceness. anyways, as i've said 2 times, vice! he's really really fun to draw, might i say. i pieced together an outfit for him based on previous outfits shiro's made for him. going way back to his early days as a keys of the heart (an old, didn't-make-the-cut kingdom hearts/legend of mana story of hers) character! that's where i found his shoes...-looks longingly at them- okay, there's an origin to this picture. read and believe!: you see, vice pulled tanchou's braids one too many times. thus, tanchou became very very angry and began to chase vice with the intent on smashing his head into the ground! on their little escapade, they ran into a mud puddle and got caked in it! the gunky mud caught onto vice's big shoes and he got a little slower, giving tanchou the opening to grab one of vice's all-too-long sleeves! as tanchou got a good grip, vice tripped in a deep part of the puddle and launched tanchou like a catapult launching a dead pig. tanchou flew and flew and flew very far into oblivion, but just to be safe, vice climbed a nearby tree and found this red birdy, dubbed basco. he's talking about how he thinks he's safe and whatnot to basco, who in return just looks and listens very politely. what a sweet bird. X> now, this one didn't get finished like i wanted it to because my house went up on the market on thursday and we already have a solid offer on it! so the inspectors have been coming and checking it out, so we had to skidaddle for hours at a time so they could inspect the house. then the stupid future owners just CAN'T GET ENOUGH of the house, so they keep scheduling tours OVER and OVER again and we have to leave the house OVER AND FREAKING OVER again. plus, my family's looking into another house to get and flip it over to some other buyer after we build our own contemporary lot. :] so that's a plus! i get to be one of the key designers and landscapers for it too, so that makes me happier even still! it'll be fun! so i had to piece this together in time slots of at the most 2 hours at a time. it SUCKED. but at least it came out good. ^ ^ i'm still waiting on a reply from shiro, but i'm not worried because she usually answers one or two days after i send her junk...er...pictures. 8D photoshopcs2 5-6hrs? half acre by hem ; in my place by coldplay PS: high res knows what day it is. DO YOU? PSPSPSPJFPOSIHFPOJENFWUE: i think the lineart came out really nice in this one. so i'm going to put it up as a colorpage for people that want to colour it. ^ ^
