Comment:
Some of you may be familiar with my version of Pridelands OrgXII, Marluxia - http://soulspoison.deviantart.com/a.....uxia-175118222 ,well since then he's gone through some more changes. Not too many but yeah~

A while ago I had a massive crossover AU rp going with a friend of mine in which Marluxia was a Prince of the kingdom of Galbadia. Most everyone in the land could shift to the form of a lion through magic or by birth rite depending on the bloodline. I'd been thinking about doing a sort of royal portrait of his lion form for a while and figured now is as good a time as any! I was going for an almost old oil painting on velvet look with it, and I'm really happy with the result. My many many thanks to crypsis for the critique otherwise this wouldn't have gotten done today. <3333
