Full Metal Romance

FULLVIEWPURDYPLEASE [:

Makes you want to go on a fancy dinner date with him, eh?

I started this yesterday due to pure boredom and the attempt to draw Ed anime style..as in..the actual anime, not my anime style o-o; ANYWAY... I wanted to make him shirtless at first, then I remembered his arm which made me remember how difficult it was for me to draw it way-back-when. Then I was thinking about puting him in formal attire. Funny thing, I was just sketching out the pose (pulling down the tie) and I remembered that the picture is waaaaaaaaay similar to one of the paintings Arakawa did in the second FMA arkbook XD;;; Oh well. Then I started coloring, face first, anime cel-shading. Then I moved on to the clothes...Cel-shading didn't quite have the effect I wanted, so I switched to soft XD. Man, it looks weird with two types D:...Gradually it came out to this.

If you look closely, the buttons have that...FMA symbol on them 8D
And I like how I put that symbol through a heart like an arrow in the bottom left corner <33333

Everything was done digitally including the sketch.
