Has nothing else been said about why Roxas looks so old in this picture ?

Huh. I've never seen that before. He does look abnormally old. Still, I wouldn't think anything of it. I think Roxas is the worst portrayed character out of all of Nomura's artwork. In my opinion, he hasn't been able to really nail him how he looks in game, despite all the pictures of him. Same with Ven. I mean, he looks 20 in that picture, whereas in his Days portrait/cover art, he looks ten. So, what can ya do?

Ah, this picture again. Personally when I first saw this and knew totally nothing at all about Birth By Sleep or Ventus in total. I actually thought that Nomura pulled an ol' switch-a-roo. That he placed *Roxas* in Birth By Sleep's picture and placed the older little Roxas "clone" into the 358/2 Days picture.

.........*laughs* I was so far off.

But Roxas does look older then he should. Coming from a subpar artist's point of view. I think it's because of the angle Roxas is at, and his neck that makes his face look older. Nevertheless, the Days drawing is still extreamly attractive. How they drew Xigbar and Xemnas is my favorite part. :36:

 

[Ehres]

it's just the angle of the drawing.
