I Love this picture, it gives me a sad feeling but also really nice, I don't know how to explain, it's also a kind of peacefull (probably because of the way they are standing and their faces are )

I also like the arms, the connection


And the reason they made the scar at his eye in this way is because a half destroyed face is not so nice to look at in an anime, not sexy (yes I'm fangirl)

Put this in your sig if you laughed your ass off when you realized 'Yagami' spelled backwards is 'im a gay'
90% of teens would die if myspace crashed. If you'd be part of the 10% that would be rofl, paste this into your sig

<sub>Aw, thank you. :3 I'm glad people still enjoy this piece, even though I look back on it and see a lot of things I would have done differently. XD

Personally, I find the larger, more believable scar "sexier", if you will. XD If for no other reason than originality. It shows off the scope of the injury, and anything less just reminds me of Scar from The Lion King. It sort of... looses authenticity. XD

It's sort of the same reason why I've always preferred the fuller, more muscular build they draw Roy with in the manga. It's more accurate than the typical bishie-build of huge shoulders and a skinny little waist that they used in the anime. I dunno why girls these days find skinny men so desirable, but it's deffinately not how a soldier is built- and I'd know, I'm married to one. D: Then again, I'm pretty sure most of those girls have never seen how an adult male is typically built, since they call Roy's muscle in the manga "fat"... which annoys me. >_>

But now I'm just rambling. 8D</sub>

I don't really know things about how men are build xd
But I Meant when really half his face was gone, I agree that when you're shot with a gun you don't have a kitty scratch And I think in real life it would look very strange when you have big shoulders and a skinny waist... I didn't really pay attention to his waist, the thing I like the mos about him is his personality, but I now I'm talking to much

This is really nice. I was waiting for someone to draw them together with their scars. The interlocking arms was a nice touch too! I like the way you made the scars more realistic and not all small and idealized. And I absolutely love buff manga Roy! He actually looks like a fit army officer and not some skinny bishie boy.

<sub>Thank you! :3

I'm glad someone else can appreciate Roy's soldier-build, instead of just reacting with, "Ew, he's fat." XD</sub>

Personally, I always thought that his eye scar always looked more like this, and that's why he had a patch in the anime. Incidentally, his scar reminds me of Zuko from Avatar: The Last Airbender. Which seems oddly fitting, in a way.

I can also see a lot of manga influences here, too. And I most certainly approve! I love the little manga touches!

The way their arms are crossed as they show off their respective scars is touching. Perhaps moreso because of the hideousness of those very scars. I like to see it when people don't try to downplay such things, and I agree about that odd trend girls seem to have nowadays.

By the way, if you see a really short one-armed man, don't mock his height. Nine times out of ten, it ends up being Edward Elric. My uncle Bertie made that mistake once; now he's my aunt Bernice.

oooooooo :I nice lol
