Squall and Rinoa from Final Fantasy 8 by squaresoft/square enix
This is the flip side of the dark version I posted last week.
I’ve been struggling lately with my lupus and the joints of my thumbs have been super inflamed. I wish I could draw more but... it is what it is I guess. I’ll try to get some more sketches posted soon despite it!
Some juicy #conceptart work done with Fantastic Pixel Castle studio for their upcoming MMO
Loved cooking up this character and style while chewing on the great ideas and brainstorming with the team. I really like when I get to take the lead on concept styles and play around. I know the industry has the tech for some wild things so Ive got my hopes up stylistically ha!
Mecha-Tinkaton for GTechnoid + other leftovers I finally got done from last week
These were meant to be finished yesterday and posted with the rest of that batch, but icons took a bit longer in the week than I expected, whoops. just glad I got em done now.
Square Enix really knocked it out of the park when they made Lightning's gunblade - that's right, a sword which has a functional gun in it - look like a butterfly knife.
Here's a sketch from a fantasy AU that I play with. I wanted to make the blade on Arlo's gunblade / pokeball launcher / harpoon much bigger (almost twice his height), but I worked with the canvas size, for now. Consider that the pocket version. I'll elaborate more another day.
For Candela's harpoon:
Candela has a simple weapon because she can do more with it. This checks out with martial arts because the more simple the weapon in the hands of a skilled fighter, the more problems they'll cause for everyone else
For Arlo's...yeah:
Arlo is crazy. Everything is going to be crazy, and the worst part about his crazy is that his shit is probably going to actually work, as long as he isn't so crazy that it doesn't work. It isn't impressive that it cost an entire country's GDP to design; it's impressive that he didn't kill himself during the testing phase.
Carby internally: I sense that my dark mistress is unshackling all restraint... Fearful be any man, beast or god that has provoked her! Their entrails shall stain the countryside for wait the nameless soldier was the guide's childhood friend all along? Aww, I love this story! Next page!
Honeysuckle for sweetness of a new love in your life in addition to the tender nostalgia felt for first loves, memories of old flames, and even the joy of days gone by.
Since Ali got to lvl 50 with all her jobs, i'm going to catalogue her glams she has for her jobs. I just like keeping track of them for posterities sake
