Those gate-babies never fail to creep me out. X3

This is FMA fanart which ended up being a mix of both Manga and Anime themes in the end. It takes some explaining, but it might contain one or two little spoilers below (mainly for the manga) so beware.

And just to take note - Alphonse has GOLDEN eyes in the MANGA, like his big brother - and I've always wanted to do him with them at some point. :3
I'm also not sure if those gate babies ever showed up in the manga (well...there's only a door, no 'gate' in the manga. Plus, I think there's only been the eye and the grabby-hands so...I think that was an anime-only theme...It's been a while since I re-read the current manga pages, since I've been waiting for chapter 55 for a long time now *hops from one foot to the other*). Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about the creepy babies. XP

Okay...what's actually supposed to be going on is Al's body is, well, on the other side of the door now...pretty much re-forming on that side - but it's taking place after his soul was ripped back to the side Ed is on again...so it's the body and mind, minus the soul. What happens to the body and mind after it's re-formed? unless you've read chapter 53 of the manga, you won't know (but man, do I weep for poor little Al. ;_; ).

So that's his limbs and such coming back (I love how Arakawa-san draws things breaking-down with the brick-like slabs). Plus gate babies having a ball - painting alot of stuff black is rather fun...infact, I think it's obvious from the stuff in my gallery that when I DO paint stuff, I like it all...messy-like. ;3

And for the record - his clothes DID get left on the other side of the door...both in the manga AND the anime so I WASN'T being a dirty-minded fangirl...honest. XD

Yaaay Thats really...creepy in a way though LOL, but yeah the manga is So great....Sure the Anime is good as a ANIME but the manga is Good for a MANGA too...seeing how you can treat them both as Seperate Tellings of the story all together...although I like the anime cause it has my Wrathy Poo...What can I say...Efeminate Demon Boys in Spandex makes me squeel XD...although it still scares me that Scar's Seiyuu is the same guy who does DARK MOUSEY

Life, through all it's splendor and glory, is only what you make of it, remember to live it how you want to live it, and not through that of anyone else's will, cause remember no matter how hard we try, it always ends the same way.

I have no idea what's going on, but it looks good.

Nice one.

That's really awesome. I the crackly places on Al's body and his face. VERY expressive. The gate babies are really creepy in this picture (you did good with them), especially the one on Al's shoulder. It looks like it wants to eat him (creeping me out...)
:iconziconia:
