Description I've been meaning to try my hand at coloring one of 's illustrations for a while. It was just a matter of finding the time. I guess I found it. I'm not sure why I picked Tifa, aside from the fact that I've been watching Advent Children. If it wasn't Tifa it probably would have been FEBRUARY-Aeris.

I had a heck of a time just getting the image to a pure B&W image and when I did I still had to fill the sections by hand. I decided to try my hand at a more cell shaded look, more than I usually do anyway. I like how it turned out but the real judge will be (I hope you like it).

(Why did I give her red eyes? Take a look at some of the pictures of her from FFVII, they look red to me. Also I kind of like the idea that she may be related in some way to Paine from FFX-2)

Thanks again, actually RRH66's pics art the first time I went the extra mile with my coloring and I think they turned out well (I'm my own worst critic )

Actually, at least three others have been colored by others and were also nicely done. I'm not sure how you'll find them though. You could try and check the gallery an/or favorites.

I already saw Lulu but not the others, let's search ^^
Is Aerith done?

Rikku is in the gallery somewhere or you can check 's gallery. The person who did Lulu also did another (Quistis I think). If you go to and check the general comments you'll see someone say they just finished it. I don't think anyone has done Aerith yet, if I have time maybe I'll have a go at it.

Ok thank you, I saw Lulu and Quistis, I'll check for Rikku.
I would be cool if you made Aerith, I think she'd look great

I will consider coloring Aerith, I just need to find the time.

Okay...I found the time to color Aerith. Thanks for the nudge.

No this does not mean I'll color all twelve...I can have all the fun.

Thanks, just goes to show that if ya put a little more effort into coloring (which I did compared to some of the coloring I did on my own art), that extra effort pays off...I like how it turned out too.

Im VERY impressed! Actually, its funny because I figured it anyone colored her they would make it typical Camo, and I always pictured blue or pink- >.< you did ust that! Anyway, the colors fit nicely- the skin shading is PERFECT- thank you so much!! >.<

PS
The background is also VERY classy!

Wom-bat In reply to RedRidingHoodie66 [2005-11-24 04:24:46 +0000 UTC]

Oddly enough the blue was just kind of a placeholder until I figured out what color to use. I briefly considered a white or a grey to go with her usual clothing colors. The more I look at it though I'm liking the blue. As for the background I wanted to keep things simple (and I usually do a basic background for character pics). I am pleased that you like the results.

I'm happy that you like the results. I like them too, I think it's the highlights on the skin. Not a step I'll usually take.
