Quiet Embrace (Ikki)

It's not like I have a thing for Ikki--I've never even played the game--his CGs are just weirdly useful to me.

Not that I mind--it seems somehow fitting to put up bases that feature the character whose template I've actually finished. (I am working on another of those--a girl--it just happens that she has nine different expressions--NINE!--and it's a bit much to do all at once, so I've been doing a bit at the time. The trade-off is that, being from an otome, there are no alternate poses for her. So it evens out in the end. It's just daunting right now.)

Anyway, let's see, what did I change? His hand had to be repositioned since its original placement allowed for the kimono fabric. I also don't like how snub the original girl's nose is--I feel like it makes her look disturbingly young--so I made it a little longer. A lot of the anatomy is guesswork since kimono aren't the most revealing garments, but I think it was fairly straightforward this time.
