Gilgamesh from the Final Fantasy series.

This was not on my polling list I know, this is actually a Christmas gift for my bro. Every year I ask him to give me a character to make into a poster as a gift, and this year he wanted to give me a bit of a challenge.

I was expecting my friend would choose a character with a sword, maybe even 2 swords perhaps, but I never imagined he would ask for a character with 6 completely different Final Fantasy swords!!!

Goodness. Well anyway if you aren't familiar with the FF series of games, Gilgamesh is a staple boss in the series, sometimes he shows up as a serious boss, and sometimes as a comic relief character. But he is well known for carrying around other famous swords from the rest of the FF games, usually they are just knockoffs, but sometimes they are the real deal. I guess it also helps that he looks like a badass with his red cloak and 6 arms.

I won't tell you the swords he is brandishing, see if you can guess what each one is and what game its from :). It won't be easy.

Hope you like it :).

If you want to help me decide which game/comic/anime I do a fanart of next, drop by my main page and vote in my DNFF poll :).

PS. Sorry for the watermark, it has come to my attention that nefarious no good people are trying to sell prints of my work without my permission. So this is a preemptive strike against them :).

Final Fantasy Gilgamesh by *digitalninja is a mindblowing rendition to an interesting character that we've all encountered at one point in our Final Fantasy games, Gilgamesh! Be it a villain or a summon creature depending on the game there's no doubt that *digitalninja made Gilgamesh justice with this wondrous fan artwork! Sublime! ( Featured by `rydi1689 )

I can see Cloud's sword from Advent Children, Cloud's Ultima Weapon, Sephiroth's Murasame, Jecht's Sword from FFX, and Paine's sword from FFX-2... I dont recognize the sixth one on the left side...

After seeing Gilgamesh in Dissidia without having played V, I never thought he could look so menacing.

FF8 Gilgamesh Did Not Take S**T From Anyone That's Why He Was Badass

Every Idealist Needs a Artist Other Than himself

Sing me something soft,
Sad and delicate,
Or loud and out of key,
Sing me anything,
we're glad for what we've got,
Done with what we've lost
Our whole lives laid out right in front of us
