Description
SOLDIERS Rise.Left to right, Genesis, Sephiroth and Angeal. Oh look where they landed!
I've been working so long on this, probably too long for the amount of people that are ever going to find it
(Update - 200 favs, I did not expect this! Thank you!) I had to upload it now or I'd never stop working on it, I'll probably come back to edit the imperfections. Yes thats London in the background, yes Sephiroth wanted his own hat, yes you should run.
(View with One Winged Angel music for full effect)
Zachary, Zachary, where art thou?
EDIT: Knew I'd edit it ;D Added some mist, changed his coat a bit, still loads of bits I'm unhappy with but I just really need to leave it be!
Genesis, Sephiroth and Angeal belong to Square Enix.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely critique. You captured what I was trying to portray perfectly, especially in the details about the "triangle" positioning!
Reading a review like this really makes all the time and effort feel worth while

You are very welcome! I am glad I managed to catch the feeling of your artwork, but it was so well expressed that it would have been hard not to.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your exquisite art!

I am so sad that it's impossible to award more than 5 stars to this magnificent piece of work.
Sephiroth shows here as the centerpiece of this image, dark, powerfull and superior, with an amazing facial expression warning us of what he's going to do...take over our world. As his loyal companions, Genesis Rhapsodos and Angeal already stare at their first target, the ancient city of London.
One of the things that amazes me more in this picture, becides Sephiroth's glare that pierces though the screen like if it's not even there, is the color od the water...normaly, it would be dark and pollutted, but Sephiroth's presence appears to have purifyed it.
A truly amazing work ilustrating an event which I wold love to take part of....on Sephiroth's side, of course!

So I didn't know you can reply to critiques, ops!
Thank you (again) for this lovely critique, I'm amazed that you commented on the way he's actually "purifying" the liquid, I didn't think anyone would!
I'm sure Sephiroth would let you join his side (just make sure there's a spot for me too!)

You thought about that when you painted it, right? Because that river is realy filthy!
All Hail the mighty Sephiroth!
We would be his pet army of humans

I remember reading on Lifestream.Net that in an interview, Project Gillian(Angeal, Genesis, Angeal's mother) came before Project S. And that both Angeal and Genesis are days/weeks/maybe months older than Sephiroth. It is said that Hojo got inspiration from Hollander's Project G in order to create the "perfect experimental monster". Sephiroth was said to be the most succesful out of the three due to the "purity" of the JENOVA cells injected into him when he was just a fetus.

The fact that they're attacking London makes me think of Doctor Who Β (in a really cool way)

It could be Midgar. I think I remember seeing a clock tower somewhere in that city.

Omgosh this is so good. My favorite part is the hair because it looks so real. I could almost stroke my fingers through it. <3 I love the other parts of the art work too. Like the water? You did such a good job making it drip from his hand. The armor is a nice touch too. It looks as real as the hair.
