Dropped Frames
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction. The chain reaction of evil--hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars--must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation."
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
It's a full-size helmet, just like the hero of Ico wears!

Rinoa Heartilly of Final Fantasy VIII
Comments: In the light of current events (i.e. the terrorist acts in the US), I thought that an angel theme would be appropriate for my first submission to RPGamer. And then I thought, who better to represent as an angel than Rinoa Heartilly? So here it is. I know that it isn't much, but I'd like to dedicate this piece to all those we lost on September 11 and to the loved ones that they left behind. God bless.

Aika of Skies of Arcadia
Comments: Did this a while back. I'm afraid it's rather bare bones, but that's really due to the fact that it was, at one point, part of a larger project which was never really finished. It's just Aika (the ever-cute, ever-spunky redhead...) in the midst of attacking someone/something/Janet Reno. Once again, pencil on computer paper.

"Tribute to Sephiroth"
Artwork by Ryuuzaki
Sephiroth of Final Fantasy VII
Comments: Since Sephy was a psycho semi-god for the timeframe of the game, a lot of people tend to forget that he was human also, and he did experience human emotions such as loneliness and longing for acceptance. I also liked Aeris, but Sephy's story made me so much sadder than hers...at least she HAD family and friends, and a meaningful life. If she had set fire to a town and killed a buncha people, there would still be someone who loved her unconditionally. Sephiroth had no such luck. The poor guy was robbed of everything, it's no wonder he went crazy. So, here's my tribute to Sephiroth. ^^ Never mind the fact that I
butchered his face...maybe I'll fix it sometime later and make poster size prints of it. :D

Swordman, Archeress, Axe-wielder from Final Fantasy II (Japanese)
Comments: Woo! I love fanart of really really old games! Who has played FF2j? Raise your hands! An odd thing about that game is that the battle pics, the walkabout pics, and the menu pics are all dramatically different (especially colorwize) This is my best compromise between menu faces and battle costumes... mumble, mumble... yeah!

"Ah this wrath I am!"
Artwork by GKSetzer
Kefka of Final Fantasy VI
Comments: I drew this little doodle after hearing an Arcturus song titled: The Chaos Path. It reminded me of Kefka so much I had to draw him. This is the result/damage. ^^;; Not CGed because frankly I am too lazy to spend time on Kefka.

"If you think you're ready...."
Artwork by Phill Haymes
Squall of Final Fantasy VIII
Comments: This is my first submission to RPGAMER. Only a simple piece I know but, I'm proud of how it turned out. The idea came about when I was drawing some chibi pics of various FF characters. They were VERY quick doodles, but the one of Squall had something about it which made me want to carry on with it. I re-sized it and inked in the lines. Then scanned it ready to be coloured on PSP5. Not sure where the pose came from, it just seemed like a typical Squall stance......... Phill

"That Thief Guy"
Artwork by Kimipoo
Locke of Final Fantasy VI
Comments: First submission... Final Fantasy 3/6 is one of my favorite games, but usually whenever I try to do fanart, it never turns out right. I like this one, though... I just wish that I could have thought of a decent background for it... @_@;

"Waiting"
Artwork by Lann
Tifa Lockheart from Final Fantasy VII
Comments: I was thinking about the anime style of FF7 and how you become used to the character looking like they are in the game so much it seems strange to imagine them as realistic people. So I drew my impression of what Tifa would look like in a realistic style.
Director Comments: Faces are without a doubt one of the most difficult things to draw. There are many small details, and since we see people's faces every day, even recognize one another by our faces, the slightest imperfection becomes instantly noticeable. You've done a very nice job here, and the shading in your work helps very much. Here are a few pointers for everyone on facial drawing:
When drawing the face's features, a mirror is invaluable for measuring placement and proportion. Even if you don't look quite like your subject, a mirror is the next best thing to a model. As well, hair tends to not be perfectly flat - be sure to include stray strands here and there to avoid giving your subject smooth, helmet-like hair. And lastly, pay close attention to both the collarbone and jawline, as they often provide great opportunities to get some higher contrast shades into your work, particularly if you are not drawing the entire body.
