So, Squall is my favourite FF character. Ever. ( close second is Zidane but that’s neither here nor there. ; ) And I’ve been on a bit of a Squall splurge lately. Thanks to a certain RP. : coughs :
I did this pic about two weeks ago? I was going to hold off posting it a bit longer because I have other stuff to post too but what-the-hell. ; <3 And hah, peeps on my LJ are gonna kill me. I went for this random title after asking them for one. XD; I adore Squall~! YesIdo. He’s cold, yes. He’s an introvert, yes. He’s downright abrasive, yes. He’s unsure in himself, yes. These are qualities that give Squall that thing we like to call ‘depth~’. (I’m not even going to use the distancing-people-as-a-defence-mechanism card- because it wouldn’t matter, he’d still kick ass without it.) He’s a seventeen year old boy who gets shoved into the position of commander and despite that fact that he’s a bit freaked out internally he does his duty and fulfils that roll and y’know what? He does it well. His peers respect and actually –like- him. Why? Because Squall though a bit of a bastard has this ingrained sense of responsibility that means that even if he doesn’t want the friends, he’ll protect them, even if he hates the thought of being a leader, he’ll do it so that no one else has the chance to screw it up(his own words.) He’s resourceful. Dedicated. Reliable. Trustworthy. Loyal. People can say whatever they want to the contrary, but I think Squall was one of the most believable and flawed and insightful and most well fleshed out FF leads - ever. … plus y’know, he’s real easy on the eyes. And if Squeenix give me even ONE nice Squall FMV in FF: Dissidia then I will be forever happy. Srsly. ;.; … : coughs : Off my soapbox now. I wanted to do something with him and his first GF in the game- Shiva. For some reason I always kept Shiva with Squall. No idea why. (Shiva and Cerberus. ;; ) The gunblade he has here is Lionheart. It kicks ass. And his earring is on the wrong ear. ; Ignore that? Squall Leonhart is © Squeenix. Painter 7 & Wacom tablet. 8/9 hours. |

I tensed for the spring, my eyes squinting as I cringed away, and the sound of Edward's furious roar echoed in the back of my head. His name burst through all the walls i'd built to contain it. Edward, Edward, Edward. I was going to die...
