Conflict of Interest WIP updates and a new doodle

I have been lazy with this painting. I can thank various wikias for that. They will suck the soul out of you. That and this one isn't as interesting to me for some reason. I've lost a lot of motivation XD I still fiddle with it for awhile occasionally, though, but not enough to make noticeable differences.

It's getting there. Slowly. I still have to paint the complete other side and the background, though. I'm starting to think that I'll split it into two corresponding paintings instead of just one large one. That'll make the lighting differences on the two characters a little easier to manage. Still need to paint John (the skull) and a few other bits, but it's coming along.

My lack of interest (or is it intimidation?) of that painting, coupled with the fact that I'm replaying Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn led me to doodle out a new WIP. Several of the characters in the game, particularly Leanne and Volug, speak almost exclusively in the "ancient tongue" which is displayed in-game as a curly font that can't be read without a key, so the player will be just as confused as the other characters when these two are speaking. However, typical to myself, I had to go and look up translations. I must say, if you've played the game through at least once, you need to do this. Both of them are ridiculously funny. Leanne especially is downright hysterical at times since she's rather snarky when she thinks no one can understand her.

Wasn't there supposed to be art back there? Oh yeah. Here you go.

FE's heron princess Leanne and raven king Naesala. Leanne's official art for RD was pathetic, so I drew her the way I thought she should be :< I'll probably bloody Naesala up a little bit just because I can and I'm feeling violent. Yay violence!
