My Sora drawing is finally done!
This drawing is the biggest piece I’ve ever done, coming in at 24×18 inches. I started it in mid July and now that we’re coming close to September I have this drawing clocked in at over 120 hours of work.

This is all done with graphite aside from the eyes which were done with blue colored pencils. This drawing has many different textures including skin, leather, sequenced leather, wrinkled leather, fur, hair, metal, rope, wood, cotton, and chrome! I’ve never drawn a lot of these textures before this project.

Sora is from a video game series called “Kingdom Hearts”. This specific look of Sora is from the upcoming Kingdom Hearts 3 coming early next year. Kingdom Hearts was part of my later childhood so I’m really excited to return to it and redraw a character that I used to draw all the time when I was a kid.

I’m so glad to finally be finished with this so I can relax!!

Thank you @skystones for dropping Reks’ headcanons yesterday ! If we’re both sad about Reks and Vaan relationship, I’m going to make it 10x sadder with headcanons around Reks’ death. I’ll start with something we discussed last night, but it’s going to be a long and painful headcanon.

I’ve always imagined that Reks hates violence, fights and war. He promised Vaan he wouldn’t volunteer, he would never leave him alone, he’d wait to be called by the army. But after the Nalbina defeat, Reks wanted to protect his little brother at all cost and he ended up going willingly to war. That’s one reason of Vaan’s anger after Reks’ death. He wasn’t supposed to be there in the first place. He made a promise.

What is your favorite Reks headcanon story?

vivisucre:

It’s actually the one I spoke a bit about to @skystones the first time I wrote to her. Let me elaborate.

Reks aspires to be a musician and he is quite gifted. He plays the piano and the violin. It is actually rare for a commoner to play such instruments because they are expensive. Most people play simpler street instruments like flute or percussions. But I imagine Reks and Vaan’s mum as a music professor with most clients in the upper district of Rabanastre.

When Reks and Vaan become orphans, they meet Tomaj, who welcome them and help them. Reks becomes Tomaj’s employee and best friend.

One day, Reks burst into the tavern, excited as hell, and he begs Tomaj to invest a little bit of money on an old piano. It costs a bit but it’s actually a good deal for a fancy instrument.
Reks convinces Tomaj because the piano will be a curiosity in the neighborhood and it should bring customers to the tavern.

And it’s working ! People are really coming just to listen to Reks’ music. Tomaj soon realises he is actually in love with Reks. His presence and the soft melodies soothe him and make him feel home.

Penelo loves to sing along the piano and the two of them create small songs together.

Reks is a dreamer, a soft-hearted boy. The only thing he needs in life is the smile of his brother and his new family.

Here is the sad part.

When Reks dies, Tomaj is inconsolable. He can’t bear the thought of someone else playing on this old piano. That’s why he decides to store it away. The heart of the tavern is gone.

@doctorcid I’m gonna tag you in all my previous Reks’ headcanon posts =p
