ff9 Zidane commission

Description

Commission for :iconsuenendo:

First off, I hate Zidane. XD I think he's a whiny monkey bitch, and his face is a ugly monkey's ass. That aside, I fell in love with this creation. *_____*
With the aforementioned in mind, I completely avoided his original expression... did my own thing pretty much :D Still wanted to achieve his girly sexiness that he has goin' on... so I aimed for that instead.

His eyes are done in my eye-enlargement method; they looked kind of sloppy the first day I painted them, but then I returned to them later on and fixed the mess. Some times it takes "fresh eyes" to look at a creation after starting it, to see the flaws... so that's the method I subscribe to.
He's re-haired in butter pecan, caramel cream, and peach cobbler authentic Hasbro pony hair.
His outfit is entirely hand sewn... and his pants/cuffs have one doozy of a custom dye job. @___@

With that said, LET'S ELABORATE!
So the fabric was originally a bright light blue color (think of it kind of like toothpaste. :brushteeth: ) So I needed to darken it, and neutralize it. Started off with a royal blue Rit Dye... it did a good job of neutralizing it, but didn't darken it enough. So.... I grabbed the navy blue Rit Dye. That did a good job of darkening it... but... it was a bit too much on the neutral side, and didn't "pop" enough. I then took a crazy risk by grabbing the teal Rit Dye.... it got the "pop" factor I needed, but then it lightened it back up. >_____< But I figured that his outfit being a shade lighter than the original, was better than it being too dark and not being the correct color, so I decided to stick with that.

The studs on his cuff are from an old stud/cross bone skull belt of mine... >.>

Not for sale because he's a commission m'kay

However, I've gotten so many crazy inquiries on this d00d that I'll most likely end up making commissioned replicas. So those are an option. :D

XD! If Nik heard you day that, he'd CRY XD!!!!

I thought Zidane was and is ADORABLE... course, his perverted personality bites XD Kuja reminds me of Sephi combined with the Gackt 3D guy, Genisis... Always quoting plays. (Then again Kuja came out FIRST XD Genisis is like a Kuja rip off; I don't CARE if Crisis Core IS a pre-qual! Doesn't mean he has to be EXACTLY like Kuja...) Atleast Genisis doesn't wear a cod piece... T-T But I HAVE to... *pouts*

He looks so girly and feminine XD
I HATED his design in Dissidia XD HE'S SO FRICKEN SHORT!!!! God... he is almost as short as ONION NIGHT!!! I actually ENJOYED beating up Zidane in Dissidia... I thought I'd use him as a character... but being Sephi and beating the SNOT out of Zidane just is priceless XD "BURN IT UP" (Zidane) "..." (Sephi as he KILLS ZIDANE)

I agree... no character in that game was tolerable... (in 9) and that fat woman in the beginning looks like my MOTHER in law... O__o On a side note, the game was pretty good though. Worth naming as one of my FF favs... I prefer Zidane's origional art. Not the fancy one but the ones of his faces. I have a poster of him and there are like 6 different faces I just love of him on it. Zidane needs a personality check, lol. He'd be funnier and cuter if he wasn't so... dorky and your typical teenage boy -___- Then again SQUALL is worse XD. Don't get me started on TIDUS... XD! Course, I love Cloud's quiet side. The quieter the BETTER XD Zidane couldn't keep it in his PANTS! And when Squall smiled... it gave me nightmares... Tom Cruiz in a FF= Squall. And Tidus... is like a jock XD I miss the good ol' days when FF lead guys were DRAMATIC and... like Cecil and Cloud. YEAH they were emo, but that made the game playable! Smiling is for happy games!!!!!!!

I really like how you made him though, and XD toothpaste... His hair is SO cute! The pony ACTUALLY looks like Zidane o___O' it's... weird. I mean his face. Like Kuja's face looks like a pony, that's what makes him cool. This actually LOOKS like Zidane's FACE XD his pudgy 11 year old fat boy face XD That makes it SO adorable!!!! I give it two monkey tails UP!!!!

P.s. WHERE ARE THE BANANAS!?!?!?!?!?
