First off, view the full version, please! (If you never do, you're missing a lot, and I don't mean just on my images).

This is the colored version of a 22" x 15" pencil drawing (fully shaded). I was unhappy with the way it scanned (I had to scan it in sections, and the sections turned out to be slightly out of size, and some edges were darker or lighter than the rest). So after an hour or two of trying to fit the pieces together and fixing all of the errors (or as much as I could), I colored this image. Hopefully I can get a decent digital photo of the original to post here. It's probably one of my best pencil drawings I've ever done.

Anyway, the details about this pic: It features characters from Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. Marche (kid on the right) and Ritz (girl on the left) are locking swords in a battle meant to halt Marche's quest. In the background, Shara (upper left; Ritz's friend and clan-mate) prepares to fire an arrow at a (random) bangaa warrior (in Marche's clan). I tried to make the terrain in this image look somewhat similar to the battleground that this battle takes place on (but it's not very close).

Clever folks will be able to see that I used the original art for references (not a bad idea, honestly). I also translated the character styles to my own style.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance and Marche, Ritz, Shara, and the bangaa are copyrights of Square Enix (and don't you forget it =P ).

Ooo, good work! That looks very nicely done, and the detail on the characters is great, too. Until you mentioned that you had to scan parts of it seperatly, I couldn't tell. In most parts, it is pretty hard to see. I have had to scan in a few images in parts, and I know it can be diffiult to get everything to look right. x.x

Thanks. ^_^ I might have been able to improve it more if I spent another hour or so tinkering with it... oh well. Maybe I'll update it some time... ^^;

My actions says it all...

Whatever's not said, I'm telling you now because you're right over there *points*

I had a dream. But no one cared to listen.
*blinkblink* wow, that came out really good. I thought for a second that you had done parts of it with pastels, even though I knew you were CGing it. As for the parts where the images were put together, i really had to look for them to see it. If you had never mentioned it, no one would have ever known =D The characters look really great...their colors came out very nice, and the shading/highlights on them are nice too. [damn, that shield and the crisscrossed belt thing look so good]. one of your best works, to be sure :)

Thanks. ^_^
It's funny you mention the shield... I don't like how it came out... it could have been worse, I suppose. I like the way Ritz's armor and her hair came out, more.

Nice use of colors, pencils, and orginality of the style, but..It looks too 'still' know what i mean? When you look at comics, it looks like there's a flow to things. It's not happening here, even though you draw them fighting.
