oh, I cannot prevent the snark.

You'll have to take a look at this official illustration, and study the image carefully. No, ignore Trowa's hair; I think it's temporarily possessed. No, ignore the way that Duo's head looks like it's pivoting radically on his shoulders, on the verge of spinning around completely just so he can watch Wufei walk off. No, ignore the bizarre oversized flaps on Wufei's pants that make him look like he stole Trowa's clown costume, just like you can go ahead and ignore (despite teeth-gritting) that Heero is slouching. Erm, see, that's not the point of linking: it's because I want to know, I need to know: what is UP with Trowa's pants?

Oh, wait, maybe I should've phrased that question differently.

*cough*

today's brilliance from windsorblue:

On the other side of the camera, I can just see Noin and/or Une sitting there going, "Duo - look at the camera please. Heero - for God's sake, stop slouching! Wufei - we're not done yet; stay where you are. Trowa - dear lord, Trowa, did you do that to your hair on purpose? What did we tell you about picture day?...Quatre!! Get your hand out of Trowa's pocket this instant! Argh - Duo, whatever Wufei is doing shouldn't be that interesting! Heero! Sit UP, dammit! Lord - can't we get one decent photo of all of you for a change?!?"

And then Zechs says, "This is why we can't have nice things."

*coughs* Actually, the art was drawn by Shukou Murase, who did the character designs for GW. Obviously his style's changed quite a bit from the original (http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n168/lithie_anari/page36.jpg).

I think he drew another illustration for the DVD boxed set as well. They were both meant as treats for fans (although quite a number of Japanese fangirls were reportedly disappointed).

I actually rather like the art style - but human heads don't turn that far and Trowa is not Ron Jeremy (and despite fanon, his hair does not carry its own antigrav field).
