Oy! Shoulda posted these a few days ago, but got sidetracked. Anyway, here are the pictures that Clarence drew for me at FC.
<h3>1. "Brask" by <a href="http://www.furaffinity.net/user/cth/">Clarence T. Hare</a></h3>
This was the first thing drawn for me at FC, and it was done before I finished my first picture as well. Clarence graciously offered to draw Brask for me, and I gladly accepted. This wasn't done in a book since it started out as a rough draft that Clarence went all the way with. It always makes me insanely happy whenever someone draws one of my characters, so I can't thank Clarence enough for jumping on this. =}
<h3>2. "Vivi" by <a href="http://www.furaffinity.net/user/cth/">Clarence T. Hare</a></h3>
Clarence's sketch is actually the EXtra version here. I've promoted my own colorization edit of it, since I feel it brings out the character likeness more.
Clarence drew this in my Rule XXXIV book at FC. His rendition of Vivi is amazing! I love the way Clarence took a very literal approach to the shape of Vivi's body as it appears in the clothes he wears. It made for a unique and plump body shape, which is something I always enjoy. FYI, I cleaned up the sketch from how it appears on my book to cut down on the stray sketch marks of the pencil.
My edit is a pretty simple colorization, though it did take some time to get everything cleaned up squarely. There is a simple invert filter applied to most of the body, along with some level adjustments. I also included the signature glowing eyes. I was torn on what color the tip of Vivi's dick should be. I thought that leaving it like the rest of the body made it blend in too much, and I wanted it to stand out more. I thought this looked the best, so be it.
Mmm, I've been meaning to comment on the Vivi one for a while. I just love the nice babyfat thing you have going for the little black mage. Gotta say he's my favorite FF9 character, right up there with Puck and Zidane.

Oh yeah, and I like Puck and Zidane's designs too. =}
