Description The surreal landscape of Terra from Final Fantasy IX featuring Zidane and Kuja.
The game really doesn't spend enough time there, nor are there enough reference pictures findable. Another picture based on Terra/ Bran Bal is in progress.

Great combination of the sharp/not so sharp lines to achieve a really detailed effect!

It was a mix of pen and pencil.

Great background. I always want to draw something like that, but I'm not as good a you . Great job I really like the detail on this art.

Thank you very much. This one's now a few years old though.

This is a great pic. I love the fact that Zidane and Kuja are so small, we get to see more of this awesome landscape.
I wish I had something smart to say right now. Oh well...

I know, it's annoying when you want to comment but can't for the life of you think of something decent to say. Other than great pic or something along those lines.

This is absolutely gorgeous. You did a great job capturing the alien atmosphere of Terra, and I think the size you chose to show Zidane and Kuja at works really well. The shading is just amazing... I love the crosshatching on old parchment effect.

Fanart like this reminds me of how much I adore FFIX.

I think some of the parchment effect came from some photoshop effects I added.

Beautiful composition! What medium is that? Ink on brown paper?

Typthis In reply to KaitouKat [2008-07-18 22:10:26 +0000 UTC]

No the paper was actually off white and I used a normal fineliner felt tip pen with a bit of pencil for the clouds. The colour comes from photoshop.

Gorgeous alien landscape. I like how the little figures and clouds give it scope and depth. That part of the game was so brief and bittersweet, for sure.

Terra is my favorite part of the game. The clouds in the picture were quite impromptu, I didn't know what I was going to do for the sky until it was done. I have another picture of Terra up, this time in colour if you're interested.

Oooh, I really like it ^^ Especially how it's mainly focused on Terra as opposed to just showing Zidane and Kuja. You have a really good detail for backgrounds, I'm kinda envious

Typthis In reply to AngelBless [2007-11-16 22:21:19 +0000 UTC]

Putting a lot of detail in the background can be a bad thing at times, especially if it's not the main focus of the picture. It's fine in this picture but, really, it's a bad habbit that needs working on.
There'll probably be a coloured version, not of this picture but still of Terra, sometime around Christmass.
Thanks for commenting.

You should put George here! And mister monster! That's right, I named your creatures.

George is going up on Elfwood first (wo he'll be here in about a fortnight, depending on how lazy I am). But I need to double check what I wrote for his description. Who's "mister monster" though?

The dude that the god of evolution created that turned out to be not such a great idea...? does that make sense?
