Hello, everyone. I've been thinking of joining a FF-based forum for a while now, and here's where I've ended up. I'm working on some new pieces right now for my new site, but I wanted to toss some work at you in the mean time.

I look forward to seeing everyone's art! :love:
This is really interesting stuff.
Pic #1: The first one's use of colour is great, & i love the whole composition in general. The perspective is impressive too.
Pic #2: Some much needed fanart for the FF12 gallery. Good work, keep it up.
Nice to see a new alternate style contributing to the artist's forum. :up:
EDIT: I can only see the last two pic's.
Aww those are nice. Who's the kid with young Auron ?
Love the colouring. Watercolours right? Great work, and like Traffic pointed out, some much needed fanart for the XII gallery :)
:D
Slade: Nope! Auron and Balthier pieces, they're both digital. Gabranth I did with prisma marker. With painter and other technology these days, its hard to tell what media is used. I'm primarily a digital artist - I don't like getting messy with real media :P
Traffic: Thanks! I'm a really varied artist and produce a ton of different styles.
Renmiri: Thanks! Its baby Rikku. :)
wowzers 0.0 the auron one would be really nice but the baby Rikku desturbs me greatly =.= i really like the judge one the coloring is amazing and i love balthier so ill automatically like that picture!man you need to teach me how to color 0.0 cause yours looks so cool!
>>> I think you need to work more on human anatomy, the colors are nice..
those are really good. the 2nd ones head seems a bit stange (i havent played FFXII as it isnt out in England yet) it just seems out of place, and not with face-like proportions (i.e. the chin sticks out a bit and the eyes seem a little stretched from above the nose) other than that, they are good :up: i look forward to seeing future work
Thanks! :)
My most hated part of human anatomy is the hand. I am not a fan of drawing hands. What displeases you about the anatomy?
On the second piece, judge gabranth is wearing a mask - but it also could be my messy style. I am not a photo realistic artist by any means. I think I'm too a.d.d. for that.
I'm the kind of artist who cares more about the meaning or feel of the piece than perfection. Though I do envy artists like Hoon and Jiji who are just freakin amaaazing, if the forearm is a little too long, I don't let it bother me. After years of taking life drawing, and even after I recieved my degree, I've discovered I'm not a perfectionist, but a lover of pose and form.
>>> Some parts are out of proportion, like Auron`s hand (too big), or the FF12 guy`s head, its shape is a bit weird..Quote:

Weirdly enough (I'll have to grab the reference image) On auron's hand, that is the direct proportion of this mexican guy who was holding a baby boy! I thought it was a bit large too, but I liked how he seemed to securely hold the child, so I went with it.
You can tell in my work if I'm looking at reference or not - the FFXII ones I didn't use a reference, where with the anatomy of the Auron, image, I did. I'll upload some more work later on tonight :) Thanks for looking!:love:
I don't normally gush like this, but the first picture is so cute. My only complaint is that baby Rikku seems a bit too fat in the belly.
The second is probably the best piece of these three. I like the detail work in the armor.
The third is a bit too soft for my taste, but that's just personal preference. I like the way you use facial expressions. Guy #2 even seems to have an expression, though he's wearing a helmet.
Also, Welcome to the forums! :)
