This is my tentative list of illustrations that I want to do for fun. I'm looking to push an inky/illustrative style, sort of like Prince of Persia, or Street Fighter 4. Here goes nothing!


December/January 2009
Mateus, Final Fantasy XII
Cuchulainn, Final Fantasy XII
Adrammelech, Final Fantasy XII
Ultima, Final Fantasy XII
Zodiark, Final Fantasy XII
Cockatrice, Final Fantasy XII

February 2009
Anima, Final Fantasy X
Bahamut, Final Fantasy X
Ixion, Final Fantasy X
Cactuar, Final Fantasy X
Magus Sisters, Final Fantasy X
Shiva, Final Fantasy X
Coeurl, Final Fantasy X

March, 2009
Carbuncle, Final Fantasy VIII
Alexander, Final Fantasy VIII
Diablos, Final Fantasy VIII
Eden, Final Fantasy VIII
Malboro, Final Fantasy VII
Ifrit,Final Fantasy VII
Asura, Final Fantasy II

If anyone has some better suggestions for this roster, I'd like to hear them! I haven't started just yet. I'll end up working on all of them simultaneously (so if I get bored with one, I'll switch to another). Let me know what you guys think!

WHOAH WHOAH WHOAH!!! Hold on a second. You aren't doing a single character from FF9? What gives? If anything I would think that would be one of the best of the FF saga to create illustrations for. The art style was just so rich and detailed.

I agree with SilverDragon, the summons monsters in that game are bloody brilliant, especially Gigas.

Ultima Weapon from VI (aka the big dragon version).

IMO it's the best incarnation.

I'll look into some of the FFIX ones. I never played it, it didn't look too hot to me at the time. Perhaps I'll have to pick it up!

Nice!

I'm looking forward to the ones from FFX especially.

@Togail: Oh man you never played FF9. It was actually my favorite of all the PS1 FF games. The art style and characters really bring you back to the early days of FF on the NES and SNES. You should definitely give it a try. You won't regret it I promise!

Also, if you're looking for someone from IX, look into Ark. He's pretty much the antithesis of Alexander.

FF9's style might not quite go along with what I've seen of your art. 9 follows the medieval and renaissance style of what you see in tapestries and paintings of those days. If you like 12's hyper intricate designs for it's summons, then maybe that's where you should stay. But I still go along with the others when I say PLAY THAT GAME. It's my favorite, and worth playing for anyone who enjoys a good story with memorable characters.

holy smokes Togail... your putting allot of goals... thats allot of illustrations per month.

I dont want to hold u back or anything, but in the industry, 1-3 superb illustrations per month is more than good. You are aiming not for the sky or moon, but for the next galaxy...

Galaxies are what I aim for. I find it daunting myself, but I think I can make it happen. Thanks everyone for the suggestion to play FF9. I'll grab it off of ebay ASAP.

Please can you do Bahumut(wrong spelling I think) from FF9? It would be much appreciated! :)

Oh and yes, FF9 was by far my favorite!
