FANART (One Piece): "Reach" (Zoro + Sanji)
Title: Reach (again, pretty self-evident)
Characters: Zoro + Sanji
Tools: Corel Painter X
Note: I recently posted a FFVII artwork " Swan" which was done in a similar style to this work. One commenter rudely and wrongfully accused me of photo-editing an existing image, rather than painting from a reference image for the pose. They remain unconvinced, despite my posting of the progression of my artwork, layer-by-layer. I will repeat myself here only once, in case anyone else also feels the need to doubt: when I paint, I may use reference images, and these may number anywhere from one to above ten. However, I have never merely traced or photo-edited an image and presented it as my own. Not only do I view the latter as distasteful, it suggests to me an utter contempt for one's own skills as an artist. If requested, I am happy to post the progression of this work as well, but for the sake of sharing, and not for the purpose of absolving any theoretical guilt.
