Even if you cba to read all the text, folks, at least view this fantastic picture scrumpleberry drew of the artists and their art. It is immense: http://img710.imageshack.us/img710/7512/valid.jpg
Psychotic: To kick us off, it's black orb and this nightmare-inducing...thing!
http://forums.eyesonff.com/attachmen...-fairytale.jpg
Psychotic: Viewers at home cannot tell this, but everybody has been silent for many hours. We are in awe.
Rantzien: Dear lord, that is terrifying. I'm shivering in my boots.
Cz: I'm shuddering in my Crocs!
Rantzien: I can only find comfort in the little happy kitten head held up by two tentacle-like things.
Psychotic: That kitten has a rather dashing dragon skull hat.
Psychotic: I imagine they'll be all the rage in Milan this season!
Rantzien: It's dystopia-chic!
Cz: It wouldn't be the first time a black orb work has altered the course of fashion history.
Psychotic: I've yet to forget
those shoes from episode II!
Rantzien: I've not. But nevermind me and my old noggin.
Psychotic: At least your noggin isn't like that giant mushroom fella's. That must put quite a strain on his neck!
Cz: One that that strikes me about this image is the crucifix knocked askew. Do you think eyeson is really ready for such bold and challenging iconoclastic imagery?
Psychotic: What is actually on the crucifix? Is that...is that a shrimp?
Cz: Gosh, the daring of it!
Rantzien: Shrimp Jesus!
Psychotic: He FRIED for our sins! ha haha!
Rantzien: Ha ha!
Cz: (Ha!)
Rantzien: Also noteworthy is the lady in the upper right. I... I'm afraid I don't have the words for her, however.
Psychotic: Oh gosh. Is that her nipple?
Cz: I can only assume so. Either that or she's sporting an accessory from the new Ann Summers Impalement range.
Psychotic: Christmas has been hard at work organising these Ciddies, but she has also found time to make comics like this!

Cz: I...am overcome.
Psychotic: I wish I was married to a little tree. The mother-in-law jokes I could make!
Cz: They're a poplar form of humour.
Rantzien: I always found that wild mix of original graphics and pasted photos and graphics alike to be quite satisfactory!
Psychotic: I am quite fond of all of those skulls as Levian sexually assaults Old Manus.
Psychotic: It just adds to the romantic mood.
Cz: And the red text conveys a palpable sense of lust.
Rantzien: As do the double exclamation marks.
Cz: That contrasts beautifully with the peaceful blue of subsequent scenes.
Psychotic: The snake like tongue of the Norwegian assailant really brings out the loathing of the character too. What a vile, despicable creature he is.
Psychotic: Hmmm. Levian is a snake, and rubah is a fox. Are we living in a world where the furries have won?
Cz: I think those are merely the inner characteristics of the individuals, being expressed physically.
Cz: Although what trait corresponds to imperial troopery is unclear.
Rantzien: Snakes are not very furry, for that matter. Do they even count?
Psychotic: Let's not be discriminatory, Rantzien. That is rather bigoted and small-minded of you against Reptile-Americans everywhere!
Rantzien: Soon they'll want the vote!
Psychotic: I fear for the day when the Million Lizard March descends upon the capitol.
Cz: Million Lizard Slither, surely?
Cz: It doesn't roll off the tongue, but then not a lot does for serpents.
Psychotic: Jirito has contributed this image to the cause: Snow from the upcoming FFXIII!
http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/845...estylejiri.jpg
Cz: Looks more FFXXX to me.
Psychotic: I feel dirty looking at this. I have several educational tabs open, ready to switch to for when my parents unexpectedly burst in.
Cz: I don't know. He looks like he could teach you a thing or two!
Psychotic: How to keep your head warm and your torso cool - A beginner's class.
Rantzien: Those abdominal muscles look like they could crush anything you'd stick inbetween.
Rantzien: Not that you would, uh, stick anything inbetween them, of course.
Psychotic: Well this took a turn for the awkward.
Cz: Hm, yes.
Psychotic: Erm. Uh. Ah. Well.
Rantzien: I'm nervously coughing but you can't see, so it feels a bit pointless.
Cz: I am having trouble understanding the context of thise picture. Has Snow just got out of the shower?
Cz: If so, he hasn't put his cap on properly - most of his hair isn't even covered.
Psychotic: Maybe he's going swimming! It looks like he has a noseplug.
Rantzien: I can see he's wearing his shower shorts, though--as any gentleman would.
Psychotic: A belt too. I suppose you can never have too much storage space for conditioner.
Rantzien: Under no condition!
Cz: I see he's shaved his armpits. Or at least, one of his armpits.
Cz: I wonder if this is a constraint forced upon character designers, due to the fact that no console yet devised has the processing power to accurately render armpit hair?
Psychotic: Roll on the PlayStation 6 and its goosepimpled flesh, I say.
Rantzien: Definitely. We want to look our characters in the pores and see them perspire before they know it themselves.
Psychotic: Pete for Presisdent's bedroom wall will be the next focus of our artistic intentions. Behold the lime green majesty!
http://forums.eyesonff.com/2726330-post31.html
Rantzien: This is what I imagine heaven to look like, fellows.
Psychotic: Are we all agreed the little chap on top of the building is Link raising the tri-force? Or do they not let Elves into heaven?
Cz: There are a few too many airships and cranes around. How would that fit into the series canon?
Cz: I must say that this looks rather gorgeous though. Like Battersea in spring.
Psychotic: I'm slightly disappointed that Pete's radiator does not match the colour of his wall.
Psychotic: Actually that would make for some good innuendo about ladies who dye their hair.
Cz: Like all the best art.
Psychotic: ShlupQuack's Mona doesn't match her Lisa if you catch my meaning
Rantzien: My virgin mind will have none of this filth.
Psychotic: You are too good for vagabonds like us, Pontus. I like the checkerboard building. Sort of reminds me of magnetic chess sets!
Rantzien: Now chess is something I can understand and appreciate! I'll cheer to that!
Cz: Now fellows, that's clearly a checkers board.
Cz: Or draughts, for those traditionalists among us.
Psychotic: Yes, I was about to start violently retching until you said draughts.
Psychotic: Although I assume the two may be unrelated.
Cz: I believe they are related, though the former is illegitimate.
Cz: I like the striped tower in the centre of the picture. The weather vane sets it off nicely. And aptly, seeing as it makes a perfect Bird's Nest.
Cz: Seems like the sort of place you might find a power weapon!
Psychotic: I call snipes! Don't get the snipes or I will betray you! The snipes are my snipes!
Psychotic: Honestly, all I can think of when people say "Snipes" is the bird.
Psychotic: auronlu has taken Halloween to a whole new explosive level! A first for our little art discussion, we have a real treat on our hands: A pumpkin!
http://auronlu.istad.org/images/bomb2.jpg
Psychotic: Ah, bombs. Forerunners of the Electrode that we all know and love so well.
Cz: Mmm, this looks rather familiar.
Cz: Rantzien, is that your sister?
Psychotic: Ohhhhhhhhh! Heavens what a burn! Rantzien just got
toooold!
Rantzien: I have only one thing to say to this sculpture: "Oh pumpkin, you lookin' da bomb tonight!"
Rantzien: I hope you appreciated that. It took a lot of mental capacity to come up with.
Psychotic: That's it? Really? The first time you've seen each other for fifteen years and that's all you have to say?
Psychotic: Huh.
Psychotic: I would've thought a meeting between a Swede and his estranged Pumpkin would've been more poignant.
Rantzien: Well, she seems a little too aglow for proper communication!
Cz: In all seriousness, this is an incredibly innovative medium. Am I right in saying that we have never before seen such a thing, in two whole years of judging the Eyes on Final Fantasy Best Artist Ciddie?
Psychotic: Well, we did once have to judge a YouTube video.
Psychotic: And you just wait and see what our next and final judgery will be! Oh it'll be a DOOZIE!
Cz: I hope I can eat it!
Rantzien: I cannot imagine it beats this in the edibility department!
Cz: If the name of the category were Most Digestible Artwork then we'd have a clear winner.
Psychotic: I don't know why you guys would want to eat the candle in that thing's mouth.
Cz: You don't like wax, Psychotic?
Psychotic: I'm more of an oil man, if I'm honest.
Psychotic: Rounding things off, it's Marshall Banana's turn, and we are going to do something incredible and ridiculous that we have not yet ever attempted. Gentlemen, we will review....a FORUM SKIN!
http://forums.eyesonff.com/?styleid=61
Cz: Oh wow. Is it getting cold in here?! Because I think someone just knocked down the fourth wall!!!
Rantzien: Oh my lord. As a traditionalist, this shakes my very foundations!
Cz: I can't help but notice that this is another piece of the furry persuasion.
Psychotic: I'm not so sure if you can call a yeti a furry. At least, not without having your arms ripped out of their sockets.
Cz: Fair point. It is wonderful to see some of the niche characters getting their due, anyway.
Rantzien: I really find it quite entertaining/depressing to double-click the ones where Umaro is riding Mog. It's like a hunting game.
Cz: !
Psychotic: Sir...I did not even know such a thing was possible. You have astounded me.
Cz: Clicking Old Man Kefka silences him pretty sharpish!
Psychotic: Although on the subject of, I must say, that is the most blatant case of Moogle abuse this side of FFIX!
Cz: The Superslick sidequest was most disturbing, knowing what they were going to use it for.
Rantzien: The Supersick sidequest, more like.
Cz: Disgusting. And to think they market this stuff to children.
Cz: Videogames ought to be banned and then hurled into the sun and then the sun ought to be banned.
Psychotic: Yes, let's ban the sun! Race you to the Mod CP, Rantzien!
Rantzien: I don't know how to find out its IP.
Psychotic: Me neither. I just wanted a race.
Rantzien: Is that racist? Help me out, Cz!
Cz: It's race related. Further than that I am not willing to go.
Cz: Although I must say, I do adore the colour of this skin.
Rantzien: Far be it from us to exclude Marshall Banana from the running for her blue skin!
Psychotic: I'm glad you've said it's blue. I thought I was the only one who saw it that way. Everyone else says it is purple.
Psychotic: You and me, Rantzien, together against the world.
Cz: I think it's blue too, guys. =(
Cz: Can I join your gang?
Psychotic: Maybe when you get something blue of your own....ie a blue title....ie a Cid's Knight title....ie because you are not a Cid's Knight!!!!! ie HA HA HA HA.
Rantzien: Well, neither are you. I stand alone.
Psychotic: I used to be one.
Psychotic: I can re-capture the old magic any time I want!
Cz: /Liverpool FC joke
Psychotic: That was a low blow, Snake.
Psychotic: Oh look at us babble on like crones! We should wrap this up good and proper!
Psychotic: Uh...bye...folks? See you next time? Possibly? If we're not all dead by then?
Rantzien: Why wouldn't we be?
Cz: >_>
