Description PLEASE DOWNLOAD FOR THE FULL AWESOME VIEW!!!

Okay here's my more serious creation for the Baten Kaitos Contest going on right now! This time I did it on one of the best songs from BKO, which is Iconoclasm (cool name too) and it plays anytime you face a Machina Arma. It can be heard here: [link]

Here is a pic of Heughes and his pugilistic Machina Arma using burning harken on one of the 3 characters in Nunki Valley. I'm really happy about how this turned out! It's also not often you see fanart of Heughes, and he definitly deserves some (he never got a good amount of screen time in the game. Legendary actor Crispin Freeman also gave him an incredible voice! I just wish there was more reference for his Machina Arma. I had to look at screenshots and it was terrible to have to draw that thing at this angle.

I'd also like to thank for sending me a reference pic of Heughes, I still don't know where in the world you could have found it.

Fun Fact: I actually originallywanted to do a pic of the Machina Arma Razor, but I felt seeing more of a human figure would be more effective for the contest.
*Fingers crossed to win*.

Great artwork! I love the colours and pose!
I've died like... 100 times here because I didn't know you had to beat Shanath first and tried to beat Heughes. XD

Oh thank you! Thanks for the fave too! When it comes to anything Baten Kaitos, I really pride myself on the colours. LOL, I also really hated how depending on what you chose, it affected the game (I wanted a definitive story for the end of BKO). Did you choose to save or kill the Machina Vanguard? I myself chose to save them because Sagi doesn't seem like a killer to me.

Romaniya In reply to Destron23 [2011-04-25 09:47:50 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I chose to kill them. And you know why? Without killing them, your field guide WILL NOT be complete. So when you start a new game plus file, you should kill them next time. Otherwise you can't complete the field guide.

Destron23 In reply to Romaniya [2011-04-25 12:13:07 +0000 UTC]

Really? I never realized. This is why I can't stand it when games have multiple endings. In my opinion, the only game to do that right was Shadow the Hedgehog for the GC where you had to go through like 10 different endings through variable levels to get to the final story.

Romaniya In reply to Destron23 [2011-04-25 12:31:21 +0000 UTC]

Yes, but when you start a New game plus after finishing the first file, you can keep your field guide, card collection (the cards you've ever seen) so you won't have to start over. This time you should finish the machina vanguard off, because then your field guide will be complete.

Oh, shadow the hedgehog. I just played that game and chose for the aliens' side. LOL!

Destron23 In reply to Romaniya [2011-04-25 15:06:26 +0000 UTC]

I never played over an old file. So you get all the cards and the field guide? I suppose you don't get to keep your level though.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Romaniya In reply to Destron23 [2011-04-25 16:45:09 +0000 UTC]

Yes, when you finish the game, your field guide and all cards you've seen won't be erased. You won't of course keep your level and deck, but the list of cards/cooking/mix recepies/sedna magnus you've ever collected won't be erased. So you can still complete the game, even if you skipped something in the first file.

Hmm.. Perhaps I'll do that and also see what happens when you don't kill Wiseman.

I never tried that myself, but maybe something different happens then

Never played Origins (...yet) but I have the soundtrack and iconoclasm is pretty awesome song *__*
Gorgeous colouring here *v* Specially in those armors~

Destron23 In reply to Possumato [2011-04-24 19:53:58 +0000 UTC]

You really need to play BKO, it's definitly just as good as the original and it had an awesome cast, just like the first. I guess everybody seems to like the armour, to my surprise. I'm particularly happy about how the special effects turned out for his Machina Arma and the burning forest.

Just out of curiousity, do you think the drawing matches the song?

Possumato In reply to Destron23 [2011-04-25 07:26:48 +0000 UTC]

BKO is the next game I'm going to buy, but I don't know when I'm going to buy that (since all of my money are going to my next cosplay... All thanks to my friend >8C)
I can't say perfectly since I haven't played the game itself, but in my opinion it does

Oh will you be cosplaying another BK character? I think I've seen your Mizuti and Folon costumes around on DA.
Thanks again! Hope we both place in the contest.

Yeah, all thanks to (she's going to cosplay Corellia, and because I'm a fan of BK too so I decided to cosplay Ladekahn... A lot harder than Folon D8 )
And you're welcome again xD I hope that too~
