You know the phrase face the firing squad? Well, what sorts of things does the firing squad face?
'Tis for the Fortitude contest in the Anthro Gallery, part of the 7 sins/virtues contests for DA's 7th bday: [link] Fortitude is courage in the face of adversity. And I think there's nothing more courageous than being able to take a stand on something you believe in. This is kinda' related to a previous picture of mine ([link]). It's not quite a continuation of the story, since I've changed a number of the details. But I guess it's like some sort of alternate dimension world where Axel chooses a different path. Or something. (Axel is my bat chara in the front there, sadly named before Kingdom Hearts II) Backstory? Well, I guess I could always let the image explain some of its thousand words. ^_~ Also, Id like to also mention that Im not trying to make any anti-war statements here. I tried to make the uniforms/location/weapons as nonspecific as I could, though I know very little about military uniforms or weapons. EDIT (8-23-07) Ah hah. More than a week later, and I realize that Fortitude is actually one of the themes in that 100 Themes challenge! How amazingly perfect! So here we are, 20. Fortitude for the 100 Themes, 100 Drawings Challenge! ([link]) EDIT EDIT (8-27-07) Runner-up! Neato-keen! :3 Daily DeviationGiven 2007-09-07'A Decision' is one of those pictures you don't need to read the description to understand it. Originally drawn to enter the Fortitude contest in the Anthro Gallery, it explains how fortitude means courage in the face of adversity. And I think there's nothing more courageous than being able to take a stand on something you believe in. =chaoskomori drew this related to a previous picture of her, 'Duty', and both images are worth a thousand words...

I am a fragile, beautiful thing, like a celebrity marriage.
I love Axel's expression most of all. He defiantly looks like he was just pushed over the emotional edge.
