Description Stepping along through my old archives, we come to-AH HOLY CRAP!? A MILLION HP!!? YA GOTTA BE KIDDIN' ME!!

Ahem, well, anyway, I remember making this a while back as a follow up to my Chrono Trigger poster project. I needed something new to jump on, so I thought about one of my other favorite RPGs. I immediately had a recollection of some of the toughest RPG bosses I had ever faced, and realized how little attention they received for artwork. I decided to take a dive and work on a WEAPON poster for my trip to Animazement, and with really no idea of how it would turn out compositionally, I think it worked out well. At most places I take it to, it's apprently been the only WEAPON artwork for miles, which is both good and bad. I remember really having an appreciation for their designs while working on this, in the same vein of the research I did on the Eva pic, and I'm still pretty partial to the linework I made for them. Now if only I could find it...


Oh yeah, and feel free the give this pic the middle finger, it's deserved. BOOYAH!

Been replaying FF7 this passed week, and all the Weapon's annoy me to no end x'D

AMAZING drawing Definitely deserves a fave.

Could I put this to use for a title screen? Β I have a ff7 fan game I am working on based around all of the weapons.

Sure, go ahead! Β Interesting concept for a game though. Β Is it going to be like "King of the Monsters?"

nope, I am making an rpg maker vx ace game where the WEAPONs are the main characters. Β I am coming at it from the angle that the weapons were humans back when Jenova appeared. Β Along the way the Cetra decided to change them from defenders of their kingdom of ancient times to defenders of the planet.

Thanks! Ah geez, what was his name...Sapphire?! Yeah, I think it was Sapphire. He was the guy that attacked Junon. Getting decent grabs of him was ridiculously difficult at the time, so his body's gotta be like like 40% made up in my drawing.

They all look so unique, I especially like the red and brown-gray ones... I like the way you drew the red ones fingers, great perspective...

Superb Venerated Jehoshaphat! [I need more excuses to use that phrase.]

I only ever played a demo of FFVII, but I have a guidebook. Remember the underwater WEAPON? If you so much as sneeze on it the first time around, it'll instantly make mincemeat out of you. Talk about a cheap boss.

O.O God this brings back horrid memories. I loved fighting them, they were my favorite bosses. God this is a wounderful picture! Just wounderfull!

what were they called again?

Flying = Ultima
Defeated at Midgar = Diamond (?)
Gold saucer = Ruby
Underwater = Emerald
Defeated at Junon = ?

This is some great shit, there aren't many references on it... you should redraw this one and edit it in a Photo-program even more ! ( photoshop, Paintshop? )
