KH: Mirrored Wind, Mirrored Earth

Alright: so wrapping up the mirrorverse apprentice set with Aeleus and Dilan!

The mirror-Organization's most reliable fighters, with some skills even their Nobody counterparts never quite learned. And outside of the battlefield, too, solid allies for someone with the kind of ... issues ... Xeha has. Aeleus in particular has found himself in the role of the group's 'team dad', helping with combat training, and Dilan's always ready to shake some sense into a certain young keyblade wielder.

Overall, I've had a lot of trouble getting this pair done. Just had trouble getting the right image for them. But think it worked in the end... The trick was trying to make them look solid and unfussy but still nice and distinct. A friend/collaborator suggested giving Aeleus the backpack - practical to the end, here. And it of course helps that they come with guard weapons rather than having to pick them off the Gear list.

Noticing my colouring style's drifted a fair bit over the course of this series of pics. Well, only to be expected, across over a year and two different programs...
