So the face of the previous version really bugged me. Well, it's just plain ugly and, like Koyar said, the shading is flat compared to the vest. I normally don't do this, but I decided to redraw and recolor the face. Besides completely redo the face, I made the shirt a bit darker. Too bad I had to redo the hair too since the old version didn't match up with the new version. I think this is an improvement, but I think my style is still pretty meh.

I like the look on his face. Very Balthier-ish. :3 And you've got a real knack for shading, zomg.
Thanks!! I'm glad you like it. I think this is a much needed improvement over the previous version. Hehe. Nah, a friend of mine does CG a lot better and her guys are sooooo pretty. :D
nice work man, what tools did you use for this pic?
I think you did a good job, know why? I saw it on the main page and Immediatly Final Fantasy XII popped in my head and I had to check to make sure, and I don't play it! I've only watch my fiance play every now and then, and I guess I saw him in a cut scene maybe, but if you can get a non-player to know where its from, you did a good job!
Simply amazing. Balthier looks like quite the charmer in this pic! I love the shading and the lighting and...everything! You should be very proud of this!

How can we call ourselves strong
Is the assurance that they seek
So beyond us all

Thank you! The lineart was pencil on paper and the coloring was done in Photoshop.
Your comment made me very happy when I read it. I'm so glad that you were able to recognize who the character was from looking at my picture even though you're not super familiar with the game. :) Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for your comment. I'm glad I did a better job of capturing his personality. He is quite the charmer, isn't he. Hahahaha.
