FFX-2 Rikku Soldier 1st Class
Well I finally finished this after months of putting it aside. Here's my final piece in a series of the ladies from Final Fantasy X-2 wearing FF7-themed dress spheres.
Rikku is by far my favorite and so I took my time with her. I actually did a very clean lineart instead of just painting over a sketch like I normally do. I'm starting to see how much easier it is to color if I take the time to clean up the sketch. Anyway, Rikku is supposed to be wearing clothing similar to Cloud from AC... except without pants. I personally like the chocobo belt buckle ^_^
