Krueitoen Andersson

Krueitoen Andersson, Air Rivals/Ace Online.

I did this piece of fanart mainly for a few reasons.

1. I'm terribad at painting in Photoshop. Most of my pieces are done in SAI, but I don't like doing more complex paintings in it because I feel I have more control in PS when doing complex paintings. So this was Photoshop practice.
2. I can't usually seem to draw without lineart, so this didn't have much lineart.
3. The official artwork for this guy I personally felt didn't do him justice. He's 43 years old, and I don't quite like how he looks a bit too much bishonen in the official art. The Japanese version didn't even do that to him.
4. Most fanart of AR pilot characters tend to be of the girls because, hey, latex suits and boobs.

So there you go.

Air Rivals is the EU version of Ace Online, an online MMO where you're a pilot in an aircraft called a Gear, and you follow the story while levelling on the (mostly) flying mobs of the planet Phillon and fight wars with your opposing nation.

Small trivia: Krueitoen is considered by canon to be part of the Bygeniou City Union (BCU), a fascist nation. Which is also the nation I play. It makes for some interesting headcanon.
