    Default Which game had your favorite Amano artwork?

    Self-explanatory.

    Edit: I haven't seen any FFXII Amano art yet. If it has been made yet, than can a mod add that option to the poll? Thanks.

    It's all great, really, but I went with FFVI for the strength of its character designs. There are well over a dozen of them, but each one is distinctly interesting and visually engaging, from new interpretations of classic archetypes like the ninja and the monk to entirely fresh concepts like the yeti and the wild boy...and then even further to the induction of formerly one-dimensional NPCs like Mog and Gogo.

    I loved the work he did for Final Fantasy IX. I loved how he made Quina look like a pile of candy.

    FFVI definatly. He did so much designing in that game it's not funny. But his Magitek design, just awsome.

    I'll go with IX. I thought Zidane and Garnet's designs were awesome.

    I also have to say 9's artwork. All the artwork for the games was stunning, but 9s were just great.

    1. His artwork that he did for IX was gorgeous. I especially love what he did to show Alexander, and Necron in another picture. Those were my favorite for that game. The characters look great as well.

    2. FFVI was my second favorite, mostly about the Magitek armor. I accidentally voted VI instead of IX.

    3. He made a beautiful picture of Yuna and Tidus in the Spring for X. There also some others that I don't remember.

    4. He made a concept for Chaos sitting on his throne for FFI, which looked so macabre and awesome.

    Those are the games that stand out in my mind. I once found a book full of his art at my local Borders Book Store, it had so many different things. It was so beautiful, but $70.00. I wish I could have bought it lol

    Rye made this!

    Hope this helps. Has Yo****aka Amano, Tetsuya Nomura and Akihiko Yoshida art. All 3 have done art for the series.

    I think FF2 had the best artwork. The rest of the FF Artwork pics didn't look as good as FF2's.

    I love the pictures he did of the ff8 characters. rinoa lying on the moon, all of them having a picnic etc. the pictures from ffx and x-2 have some crazy intracacies.

    But then, I'm not terribly fond of amano's art anyways.

    Yeah, and I think it looks terrible. It's just too much. I was disappointed.

    I agree with Kishi though. The FFVI artwork impressed me the most. Although VII also has some really nice ones, with Cloud and Aeris. The colours are beautiful, and the way he's drawn the two characters together is

    i always thought Amano's artwork portrayed things in a more "gothical" way. but, at best, i enjoyed his artwork for Final Fantasy Origins, such as the game covers and a warrior fighting w/Behemoth. lastly and i'm done, i liked how he used appealing colors to reflect the theme of his work...
