Artist's Comments

And with the Negs version of the Keyblade fight, comes my Darkwing. :XD: I wanted this to be more of one of those AMV screen cap moments from the game, where DW proudly stands showing his Keyblades (see the Negaduck WiP pic for the full concept description) I drew this with the intent of fully tweaking his suit, based on some suggestions given to me. In the end... I think I should have kept closer to the original design I made, and only realized this after I inked it (like two days ago). HOWEVER, I am REALLY proud of this. Keeping true to my love of DW, I kept this fairly detailed (and inked the ENTIRE thing in a "0" and "1" pt. pen!). I like the aspect I did for this... It's rare I get nice depth from pics I draw, but I think I did well with this one :) I LOVE his face. Not sure why, but it's amazing. And his hands too. Honestly, despite my apparent dislike for the redesigned costume, I think this is a fabulous pic. :) I hope you all agree!

This will be finished someday, I hope. Or at least get the inked version in place of this. *shrugs* Dunno.

I like this version of his outfit better than your last KH Darkwing. I'm looking forward to seeing it colored.

That said, if he's using two keyblades, he can't use his gas-gun. Also, if it's just him and Launchpad, how will they invoke trinities? You've said you dislike Sora, but why not simply replace him with another otherworldly person from a far-off place like Destiny Island?

In the original KH, the default balance of play is Donald as magic-type, Goofy as defense-type, and Sora as attack-type, right? Well, consider: Launchpad is clearly a defense-type, and Darkwing (much like Negaduck) is obviously an attack-type. Unless you're thinking of throwing Morganna McCawber into the mix, that leaves an opening for a magic-type. Let the keyblade-wielder be a mystic, who directs the quest because he understands what the problem is better than Darkwing does. Darkwing would think of himself as the leader (of course), and this mystic as merely an advisor, but the keyblade is intrinsically a magical item. It's a good fit.

Besides, I just love the idea of the Mighty Midnight Mallard tearing through Heartless with his oldschool props, gas gun, buzzsaw cufflinks, and mad leet quack fu skills.

Hey, thanks for the insight on the KH thing ^^ I'm not that serious into it, so it's always interesting to learno other people's POV.
And you think the outfit's better? Hmm, intriguing... ^^ Not sure why... I think my problem is that I really liked all the useless straps hanging off of the outfit, despite their... uselessness. =p But I am happy that this outfit also does him some justice, so wee :) Thank you for your comment :)
