    The Ultimate Blue Lantern

    SPIRAL POWER SHINING BRIGHT,
    ANTI SPIRALS FLEE FROM SIGHT,
    PIERCING HEAVENS NEAR AND FAR
    GURREN LANTERN
    WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK WE ARE?

    (Gurren Lantern oath devised by an Anonymous on /co/)

    OK, as I was reading through Green Lantern not only did I develop an affinity for Natu, but I also thought "Simon would be the ultimate Green Lantern and Kamina would be the ultimate Blue Lantern."

    I blame /co/ ...

    This is just a fun (read: quick and dirty) sketch of Kamina, the ultimate Blue Lantern. The anatomy is shit, it's not very detailed, and I really don't have the will to make it as good as the Natu piece. It was just a funny idea.

    This took a grand total of about 2 hours spread over two days of working on it sporadically for like 10 minutes at a time, the Natu piece took about 6 hours spread over two weeks.

    I'll edit it with a better version if the errors in this really start to bug me, but its 4am and I'm sleepy. till next time.

    edit: well, look at that, I editted it before I went to bed. Ha.

    edit2: HUGE edit. Face was really really REALLY bugging me on this one. To be honest, it still kind of does, but this is way way better. Head wasn't placed right, pose was all off. Some muscle inserts bugged me. Many other things too...

    This still needs some editting, but this next week is going to be hectic, so I'll get back to it later.

    Fixed. That's a Blue Lantern Corps insignia.

    Blue Lantern Corps motto:
    "In fearful day, in raging night, with strong hearts full, our souls ignite! When all seems lost in the War of Light, look to the stars, for hope burns bright!"

    How fitting.

    Highly associated with the color green? Check. Gets his energy from willpower? Check. Fights against galatic evil? Check.

    It's safe to say that he would be.

    Considering Kamina once said that despite his bravado, Simon's usually the one who REALLY pulls through for them both when it counts...

    "Hope is useless without willpower."

    "Believe in me who believes in you."

    Okay we need matching fanart now.

    So Kamina would have the blue ring one hand and the green one on the other? Wearing multiple power rings doesn't seem to happen that often but heck. We're talking about Kamina here.

    Impossible? Not in his vocabulary.

    Simon is more green latern than Kamina

    DEAL WITH IT
