It seems only fitting that I should draw sorXa in the style of MMZ, seeing as a nontrivial portion of her design and the ideas for the setting around her were inspired by the Zero series.
The style imitation here isn't perfect, though it really doesn't help that one of the two pages I drew this on had a rougher texture because I drew on the wrong side (the smoother texture of the upper part works better for the MMZ artstyle, I think). That being said, if you showed this to 14-year-old me and said "you'll be able to draw like this someday," I'd have lost my fucking mind, seeing as there was a period of some months in mid-to-late 2011 where I was trying to emulate Toru Nakayama's artstyle (after which it started morphing into my own style, though that didn't give way to what would become my current style until... late 2012, I think? Or maybe early 2013?)
Speaking of the paper used here, oh god this was a pain in the ass to make into a full-body image:
... I think I should make a habit of drawing in larger sketchbooks, oop
Also, I mentioned this when I posted the WIP, but I went with "Coquelette" for her name to keep with the Resistance's "French bird name" naming scheme, and "coquelette" is a feminine version of "coquelet", i.e. cockerel, i.e. a young rooster, as in Rooster, my old FFTA Thief who I also had a Lego minifig of (like some earlier incarnations of sorXa).
