Description Organization member number 11 in the collection!!! I can't believe it's almost finished!

Xigbar is definitely one of my favorite Org 13 members(and KH characters in general).
I spent freakin' FOREVER with the shading on him, and I think it turned out alright! I also think his scar turned out pretty good, since I did it freehand(I didn't want it to have an outline).

I really do!

Yeah, I really enjoy fighting him in KH2; but as a character I am not a huge fan of him. Especially after everything he did in Birth By Sleep.
I do think he's funny though... as if :3

You're very welcome!

Oh really?? I actually really love his character! I think he's a great villain and I love how he knew the BBS trio I just find him interesting I guess haha

While now I think his fight is fun, he was 'that one boss' for me for a long time haha(lots of bad memories from my first playthrough of the game).

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-11-22 18:05:53 +0000 UTC]

Yeah haha I can totally understand why people like him and he is a cool character. I suppose I just don't like how he helped Xehanort haha

Oh yes, Xaldin is that boss for me.

DonutSeed In reply to HinataOC [2015-11-23 21:37:40 +0000 UTC]

I guess I kind of like him more since he actually did help Xehanort, I think it's a pretty cool backstory 

Oh really? I had a bit of trouble with him myself. I would have done a lot worse if it wasn't for Mickey though haha!

DonutSeed In reply to HinataOC [2015-11-25 21:57:58 +0000 UTC]

I think I died about 3-4 times during the fight hahaXD I wonder why he only appears in that fight? Is that ever explained?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-11-25 22:09:18 +0000 UTC]

Haha oh me too!
Well Mickey has actually appeared for me during other fights as well.
He appeared for me in Beast's castle when I was fighting the Heartless Possessed Door lol
I usually don't die during that part but I was playing it on the new Critical mode of the ReMix and wasn't paying much attention.
Then he has also shown up for me during Demyx's fight.

They never really explain it, but he only shows up for me when I seem to die unfairly. If that makes sense. Like there are so many times I will have Sora use a hi-potion and as he's throwing it into the air I get killed. That's usually the only time Mickey will show up for me.

DonutSeed In reply to HinataOC [2015-11-28 20:13:02 +0000 UTC]

Really? I had no idea he would appear for other fights! I've only ever had him appear on Xaldins fight(repeatedly haha).
Oh, I see. That is really interesting though, I thought it was just a thing for Xaldin.

Yeah, I think it makes sense! Well, then Mickey 'should' have been appearing for me before. I can't tell you how many times I've died from not getting a hi-potion in time hahaXD

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-11-29 04:54:25 +0000 UTC]

Haha yeah, it's only happened a couple times where he has shown up on other fights. 

I wish I knew the actual reason he shows up haha!
Yes, deaths by not getting a hi-potion in time are so stinking frustrating!!

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-12-02 06:44:12 +0000 UTC]

Lol, I'm sure Square Enix has some sort of reason for when Mickey shows up; I just sort of wish they shared the reason with us lol!

I am very glad I am not the only one who suffered from unfair deaths like that! I also die a lot from the darn last hit on the bosses; with how you can only actually defeat them with a finisher move or a magic spell. I would have them at zero health but couldn't land the finisher move of a combo; then I would die. *sigh*

No, you definitely aren't the only one haha!
Ugh yeah, I've died plenty of times from that. Super frustrating. That's one reason why I don't like super long combos and berserk charge

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-12-07 22:22:32 +0000 UTC]

Yes exactly! lol! The only time I ever use Beserk Charge is in KH2 Final Mix. You have to defeat the Mushroom 13 and some of the only ways to beat them in the time limit is to use the Beserk Limit.
Other than that though, I never use that ability. It's sort of silly haah

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

DonutSeed In reply to HinataOC [2015-12-08 00:35:10 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah, I'm familiar with how to do it I've only defeated a couple of Mushroom 13, and I just didn't want to attempt that one haha. But yeah, aside from that I think it's sort of a useless ability. Random question, but which Mushroom was the hardest for you to beat?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-12-08 04:15:19 +0000 UTC]

They are so annoying! I am trying to do a 100% run on Final Mix and I was not looking forward to going after the Mushrooms. The hardest ones for me were Mushroom 1 (The World That Never Was) and Mushroom 8 (Yen Sid's Tower).

Mushroom 1, my husband ended up having to be the one to beat that one for me. I am awful at Quick Time Events and that is basically what that fight entails. Number 8 just cheated me so many times lol. That one you have to keep it from touching the air for 100 hits... And you would think with that Grand Stander mini game in Twilight Town I would have a grasp on what I should do... but the Mushrooms seem to have their own laws of gravity that don't make sense lol! I would get him in the air and use my Beserk skill. And when it would run out I would use Donald's Comet Limit to keep it in the air while I cast another magic spell to refill my beserk. And that would work up until about 80 hits. But you know those giant bush trees in front of Yen Sid's tower? The Mushroom would like glitch if it hit the tree and suddenly fly to the other side of the field... Ugh... there were so many times I had one hit left to get on it and then it would hit the bush lol

Oh man, I can't even imagine attempting 100% completion on any KH game!XD How close are you to completion??

Oh yeah! I watched a complete video guide for them and both of those looked especially annoying! I tried the one in TWTNW, but I just didn't have the patience for it haha. I'm glad your husband was able to beat him for you though! Yeah, I didn't even want to try that one because it looked so frustrating lol. I've heard about the trees being a problem with that one too. Were you able to finally beat it?
How about the one in The Pirates of The Caribbean world? Doesn't it split up and don't you have to find the correct one? THAT one sounds really hard to me(I suck at things like that).

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-12-09 20:46:35 +0000 UTC]

It's taken me a long time I'll admit haha! I've been working at it for about a year now. I am super close, I'm at about 99%. All I have left to do is defeat Data Xemnas and Terra. Everything else is completely done. I made a foolhardy decision and decided to do this 100% run on Critical Mode, which has been both fun and annoying haha! Most of the bosses one hit kill me, even at level 99! I've had to overdose on those Strength and Defense power ups that you can synthesize with the Moogles to even have a chance. Terra shouldn't be too hard once I memorize his move set. The annoying part is that his combos can't be broken but he can break mine whenever he wants. AND he doesn't attack in a pattern like the other bosses. I can play hm 10 times in a row and he changes the order he does things. Bleh!And then with Xemnas, they do the annoying thing where you have to fight one version of him right after the other. (which you probably know) I can beat the first version of him no problem, it's when they have you re-fight him with Riku that it gets unfair. You know that move Xemnas does where he takes Sora captive and drains his life and you have to play Riku to save him in time? Well, that part was hard enough for me in the regular fight since Riku moves like an injured snail; but in the data battle, Sora's life drain 2 times faster and the 'fake' Xemnas that tries to stop Riku uses the "be gone' move exclusively and even if I spam Dark Aura it doesn't get him off my back. So I always die at that part in the Data battle. (Sorry for the super long explanation)

They were soo annoying! It took me a while, but I was finally able to beat all of them. The one in Pirates of the Caribbean took me a while, but I learned this trick. You can pause the game right when Mushroom-Larxene splits apart and just quickly unpause and pause repeatedly until she settles in the line. That way, no matter how fast she is moving you can keep an eye on her by making her move in screenshots since I keep pausing the game. Does that make sense? haha

DonutSeed In reply to HinataOC [2015-12-12 18:47:29 +0000 UTC]

Oh wow, you're doing it on critical mode??XD Now I really can't imagine 100% it!
Yeah, I've watched videos and read up on how to defeat the Lingering Will, but I still haven't attempted fighting him myself. I imagine it definitely makes it more difficult since his fighting pattern always changes!
Oh yeah, I knew about fighting the next version after the other. LOL injured snail got a good giggle out of me hahahaXDXD
That part of the fight is soooo frustrating! I can only imagine how annoying and frustrating it is in the data battle! I wish you a lot of luck with both of them!

Aahhh okay, I actually think I remember hearing that. That does make sense Still sounds annoying though Can't you do something similar to that in Luxords fight? (the part where you have to play his game. Doesn't it make it easier to pause so you can see what you have to do next?)

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-12-13 05:34:22 +0000 UTC]

Haha yeah, I thought it would be fun to challenge myself. It's definitely been a long journey to get to 100%. Once I defeat Terra and Xemnas I'll be done! 
Terra is so tough!! He used to beat me the moment the battle would start. I wouldn't even have 5 seconds to move around. But now that I've overpowered my team with those attack boosts  I can last a good 5 minutes! lol! I got him down to 5 health bars once, but then the very next time I fought him he changed up his patterns again.
   

Lol! I'm glad you got a giggle. I was trying to find a good comparison for how slow Riku moves at that part and an injured snail seemed to fit the bill haha

Thank you for the luck! I am going to need it haha

It is still very annoying. Pausing every quarter of a second can get tiring and frustrating if you mess up the timing. You know, I've never thought of doing that with Luxord's fight; but I think it would totally work. I am so awful at quick time events.

DonutSeed In reply to HinataOC [2015-12-16 15:51:04 +0000 UTC]

Well yeah, I can see why you'd want to challenge yourself I think my style is just a little bit to casual for that haha. Oh I can imagine! KH2 has a ton of extra stuff to do and to collect!(especially the FM version)
Awww, that sucks But I know you'll get him! I guess it's just figuring out how to dodge each attack, but when the pattern always changes I imagine that makes it a LOT more difficult(I also think he gets harder during the 2nd half of the battle).

It definitely does! I hate that part of the fight so much lolXD

No prob! You gotta be sure to tell me when you kick their butts!

Ah yeah, that would get old really fast.
Oh me too! That's one reason why I hate fighting the Gambler and Samurai nobodies. I usually just beat 'em to death with my trusty keyblade, but if there are other enemies around with reaction commands I sometimes activate theirs by accident and I almost always lose at them-.-
I think it also works for Roxass fight.

HinataOC In reply to DonutSeed [2015-12-16 20:39:46 +0000 UTC]

Haha Yeah I can totally understand that. I'm a completionist-nut when it comes to games. haha

Oh thank you! I am sure I will get him eventually! I am working on raising my strength and defense a bit more before I try to get him again. haha! Right now they are both at 100, but I'm pretty sure you can raise them up to about 200. (Or maybe more)
Ugh, I hate desperation attacks, as I call them. When they get down to about half health and change up their patterns. Especially when that attack entails them going into some temporary invincibility and over-powered attacks (the fight against Riku when he's mostly taken over by Ansem is a prime example that just drives me up the wall)

I'll definitely tell you when I finally accomplish it! I was thinking of even creating a special piece of art to commemorate the occasion. lol

Yes! I hate their reaction commands; because they always win lol!
And yes, that part with Roxas is so annoying lol! Well, unless by happenstance you end up getting it right. Getting both his keyblades and using his overpowered combos is SO gratifying lol!

Yeah I'm pretty sure they are called desperation moves. Ugh yes, I absolutely HATE when they have temporary invincibility! I actually don't remember having much trouble with the Riku fight, but I remember that crazy attack where he starts glowing and shooting around the room lol.

Oh that would be great! I hope you decide to do it!

I know, they totally do! Yeah, it wouldn't usually kill me, but it always tripped me up recovering afterwards.  Ahhh yes! It's such an amazing experience when you're wielding all of them and beating up his sorry butt!XDXD

Well theirs a character I haven't seen in a long time haha.
He looks great!

You did a awesome job with free handing making the scar. I
like how you decided to not give it an outline.

The only think that looks a bet off is the shading around the neck their
seems to be a lack of consistency resulting with the stripes of different shades.

On the other hand though the hair also looks pretty good getting all those fine details
with the varying shades of the strands.

Awesome work man!
