Artist's Comments

Like a soldier getting over the war
Like a young man getting over his crazy days
Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways
Every day is better than before
I'm like a soldier getting over the war

There were nights I don't remember
And there's pain that I've forgotten
Other things I choose not to recall
There are faces that come to me
In my darkest secret memory
Faces that I wish I would not come back at all

"Like A Soldier" - Johnny Cash

This was for the July/August fanart contest at FullserviceFMA...which I won! The prompt was "Uniform" and I guess I just wanted to show what I think Mustang's uniform really is. It defines him, sure, but it's not always perfect like everyone always says. Because it's tired, and dirty, and it's a soldier that wears it. And that's what I guess I wanted to show. The way a soldier's uniform just becomes an extension of himself. Or hell, maybe I drew him this way just because I'm under the impression that if a real person, Roy Mustang would be one of the most attractive men ever. :shrug: Whichever!

And good God...I drew a background.

I believe in God the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and if you don't like that, F**k off, I don't go around trying to convert people, so leave me in peace.

reminds me of 17th/18th century paintings of men in uniform, portraits.. only this one has a lot more realism
