A Poem - The SwaggerThe Swagger

To get back up, it was a swagger that he used,
Like a ghetto tool, whenever he was bruised.
The bully that used to knock him down,
Hit on his girl, but he could only frown.
Wasn’t he a titan?
Couldn’t he keep fighting?

Didn’t take Zeus to know that fool wasn’t Olympic.

As a matter of fact, thinking back, tock-tick
Just last week, “Swagger” walked in school sick.
Coughing, hating at the same time, so slick.
Every word was poison to the rats around him,
The white walls of the lab around them, so grim,
And the teacher in front knew the kids couldn’t win,
And escape the sin,

Odin Sphere - Mercedesby ~Chrono-Kira

Manga & Anime / Traditional Media / Drawings

Long time since I last drew...here's a pic of Mercedes and her battalion from the PS2 game, Odin Sphere! I highly recommend it BTW.

Took forever to do, and I apologize for the lack of detail in the background, as well as any lack of symmetry.

Well, please enjoy, and tell me what you think!

It's not quite like the actual artwork, but its still close enough.

Great job

Thanks a lot for feedback!

You should reference your source. Since this is just drawn out of the Official Odin Sphere artbook. Goodjob imitating something that's already been done though.

What a pity to repeat this laborous conversation once more.

I wrote, in the artist description, "Reference pic used, all rights reserved, please enjoy!". I have no idea where that image came from. I simply searched the net and found a stunning picture which I proceeded to draw as well as possible. The somewhat condescending tone of your comment does little to credit the amount of time I put into drawing this.

Goodjob offering constructive criticism and reading the artist's comments though.

Um ... did you forget to mention that you copied this from the artbook? -_-

~Chrono-Kira Aug 18, 2007 Student Traditional Artist

I never claimed it to be original, I redrew it using a picture online as a reference. That was from the artbook? Interesting. I really doubt there are many artists who could recreate the work from Odin Sphere from memory. If you find any though, please let me know.

I'd love to Deviant-watch to them.

Well, the problem is, you never claimed that it WASN'T original in your description, deceiving most people.

No one has to create anything from memory. References are fine, but copying is lame.

~Chrono-Kira Aug 19, 2007 Student Traditional Artist

Very well, I shall be more specific if it pleases you. And by no means did I ever want to simply copy or take credit for someone else's work.

Deceiving people was never my intention. If anyone at all is offended, my apologies.

I simply drew something I thought looked nice, more as practice than anything.

!sephys-little-cloud Aug 19, 2007

I see. I'm sorry if I offended you (you didn't offend me, but it looked so much like the artbook page).

~Chrono-Kira Aug 19, 2007 Student Traditional Artist

No worries at all, and I can totally understand your frame of mind. That artbook must be amazing, and if you thought my piece looked so much like it, I guess I reached my goal.

Cheers.
