I’m back! I ended up taking a couple of weeks off from mash-ups as I couldn’t get past the last hurdle of finishing a piece. It’s done now so here we are!
Todrick is back in all his steampunkish glory! This would have been so much easier if I hadn’t added the contraption.
Here’s the comparison to the original. The proportions are truer now as I cheated a lot in the original for the sake of the design.
That’s all for this time! Have a good weekend everybody!
Good time part reader! Thank you for dropping by my little slice of the web for an excursion into the mashing up of genres. Let us get to it.
The steampunk
Here’s a comparison to the original. This turned out a lot better than last week’s. I’m sad that apparently I can’t find the brush I used to color the first one because I’m not achieving the same effects anymore, but I still like how this one matches up against the original.
That’s all for this week. If anybody is looking for something to watch, I heartily recommend Sora yori mo Tooi Basho – A Place Further Than the Universe. It’s a a 13 episode anime from 2018 that I adored. There aren’t enough unique character designs for a full theme, but I will have to try to do something for it.
Well if it isn’t Friday! How y’all doin’? Back for a flashback I expect? Well you’ve come to the right place!
Kuja is the main villain in Final Fantasy IX. He manipulates everybody in order to advance his agenda to become the most powerful person in the world. He also likes the finer things in life. Who can blame him for that?
Only Red Rich is fancy enough to play Kuja, even though he’s a villain. Since it’s just a play, Rich will do it. I went with his look from Dissidia Final Fantasy NT because at least I could find a good full body picture to base myself on. It’s close enough to how he looks in the original game.
Here’s the comparison with the original piece. He got the full wig this time around. He doesn’t seem to have as big of a paunch either! Overall a huge improvement!
That’s all for this week. Next week will either be Skitter or Chae’s turn to visit Final Fantasy IX. I’d better figure out who they’re going to be by then!
Hi there! 10 years of Age of Animus! It’s a pretty big milestone for me! I’ll be talking more about that on Monday. For now, let’s get to the good stuff: A flashback!
General Beatrix the top general and most trusted warrior in Alexandria. She kicks serious butt!
Here’s Sass returning as General Beatrix. As Beatrix is not one of the main playable characters for the game, she doesn’t have a promo picture like they do. All pictures I found of her were from in-game cut scenes. I chose to go with an alternate piece of art to base myself on. I’m really digging this one.
Here’s a comparison to the original. The original was meant to show Beatrix as she holds a door open in the final cut-scene of Final Fantasy IX. Sass comes out very spindly in that piece. This new one is leagues better though the costume isn’t game-accurate.
That’s all for this week! Red Rich is the last of the remakes and then we’ll have two new FFIX pieces to go! See you next week!
Well, I forgot to schedule this week’s posts until Wednesday so Tuesday’s comic went up late, but this Flashback will come out on time by gum!
Amarant is a mercenary monk. He is an honorable fighter if a little naive. I don’t really remember much about him really.
The Big Bear, Barnaby is here to play Amarant. Doesn’t he look all serious and broody? This is a very unusual pose for me to draw, but since I wanted to do the FFIX cast as they appear in their most iconic promo pictures, I gave it another shot. It’s not too bad all things considered. It won’t become a regular thing though.
Here’s a comparison to the original. I hid Barnaby’s ears in all the dreadlocks this time around. The legs are the biggest improvement this time around I’d say.
That’s all for this week. More new stuff is coming next week! See you on Tuesday for some comics!
