Description

EDIT: Made full character sheets for these two as opposed to just the half-body shots. (Meph's face in his uppermost portrait is so shoujo desu. I think senpai finally noticed him... :rofl:)

Alternate costume designs for the Faust scene I'm about to start work on. :D This is Mephistopheles' human form, which he assumes when Faust wants to drag him around in public. All of his demonic features and whatnot are gone and his skin is a natural color, though he's still fairly conspicuous. He's much smaller as well, but still quite tall relative to the average human male.

This is Faust's formal wear for when he's forced into social interaction and wants to pretend he's a fancy boy. He's quite stripey.... I was going to give him a proper pair of glasses to replace the monocle he usually wears, but decided to omit them all together for this outfit, though I may yer change my mind. I think he looks quite like a scholar. I tried to incorporate some of the motifs and stylistic trappings of their default costumes to create a sense of consistency in their respective manners of dress.

(I still have a huge backlog of junk from last semester I need to submit... Guess that's what I get for being a listless lazy-ass about over my break. :P)

I love how the correspondent of faust's laughing face is mephi's contemplative and melancholic one. From what I can tell from your adapation, mephi is the sarcastic and ironic character and faust is all nerdy, but here, you can see that the human still has a glimmer of happiness, of light and hope inside him, while mephi's in fact lonely, miserable and has this ï've seen it all before"attitude". Oh, and by the way, mephi's angry face....I feel sorry for the poor bastard who made that happen...
