Artist's Comments

Something rather "peaceful" for now. Been quite a time since I did something for my beloved Final Fantasy 9 ~ <3

This pic took ages to finish, about 15-16 hours in total - I had a hard time with that handrail and it still doesn't look right, but I've given up on that part for now. Also, the castle tower proved to be a bitch until I got the right angle (messed up that part in the sketch, bleh).
The idea itself is nothing fancy and the picture came out rather boring, but it was good practice.

Used some ref for Vivi's outfit (for the sketch only though), but that's that, I thought I was familiar enough with the FF9 optics, so no ref for the rest, and I'm quite proud how the sky turned out - but I'm also relatively fond of the rest, if I do say so myself.

No clue why Zidane's tossing a coin. Actually it just seemed too boring to have both of them just standing there doing nothing, heh. But it's kinda, well, in-character. Hanging 'round in Lindblum.

I love how you draw the FF9 characters Zidane and Vivi! I love how cute you made Vivi look and the way you did Zidane is very well done.

Jesus H. Christ! Du Tier! Bei deiner Produktivität _kann_ man nur neidisch werden :)

Ich hab im Leben noch nie Final Fantasy gespielt, aber wenn man sich deine Bilder so anguckt, bekommt man richtig Lust drauf...raaah, wie gut dass ich ein verarmter Student bin und kein Geld habe, mir Konsolen zu kaufen, sonst wär ich längst losgestürmt ;)

Uh...und dieses kleine Männchen erinnert mich an...äh...Namevergessen von He-Man *grübel*

Ich mag den Hintergrund hier sehr gerne, sehr schön, und die ganzen Details...

Eeeeeeeee Zidane and Vivi - they are my FAVORITEST CHARACTERS from FF9! (Not counting Kuja, who's just eye-candy. X3) But - awwwwww they both look so adorable and it is beautifully painted and and and ZIDANE IS MADE OF AWESOME.

Lindblum looks absolutely EXQUISITE. Fantastic work on the detail.

And Vivi! He has to be my favorite character in any Final Fantasy game, you did him absolutely perfect.

Zidane looks good too, except his mouth looks a little off.

But that doesn't matter cause I keep staring at how well you got the tower back there. O.O

Fantastic work as always.. i can see how it would take so long though, the details on the towers in the background and such is just amazing ;)
