EPIC.
FUCKING.
WIN. |
looking forward to it _________________

Well, here it is! This is actually scaled down to 1/4 the original size.
I think I might have to get Kodak to make this up into a wall-poster for me. I've been looking for something to fill that empty space on my bedroom wall, and this is the coolest pic I've commissioned yet (I would've had one of the other three at the start of this thread postered, but I couldn't choose between the three couples - now I don't have to. )

wow... thats just epic
although i do have a couple of minor complaints about the art. a couple of the faces bother me, and i think will just looks a bit like a fag
the 3 girls do look quite awesome though. hard choice between elle and kara as to who i like the best in that pic, but im leaning toward elle out of my heavy bias towards terranigma.
once again, that pic is simply epic _________________

Almost everyone looks like they're sorta brainwashed or posessed...their eyes are so...creepy!
The idea is very cool, but I personally don't like the outcome :/ |

The artwork is great, but the facial expressions need some work.
I feel that this one could have been better. _________________

Eyes are, well, not his strongest suit, no. But then I can't talk, I'm hopeless at drawing eyes too. And noses, and mouths, and ears...faces really...and hair, chins, necks, arms, legs, hands, feet.... :rofl:
They are all staring ahead, but I think the intention was to go for "battle-hardened" expressions, which kinda comes across to an extent; they wouldn't be strolling around there all smiles and laughter, would they?
Anyway, I also wish some of those monsters were in the game now. Whatever the heck that thing that Blazer chopped a hand off of, and the brown tentacle d00d that Ark's hacking at with his pollax, and that horned demon-skull down in the bottom left. Good art. |

I would just like to add, Will usually looks like a fag in pics. Ark is a badass, I think you'll agree, and Blazer is a warrior angel. Will just goes round hitting monsters with his FLUTE! :p

The girls do all look quite awesome. Kara is usual self, slightly oblivious to the gravity of the danger around her, or maybe just used to it by now, (and Arabatos' artistic decision to include Kara holding Hamlet was very cute and works well, imho). Elle has a look of steely determination in her eyes which I like (even if they appear to be squinting a little), but Lisa looks downright pissed off at something or someone. She's making like a face. ^_^; |

These particular monsters have a weakness against high-pitched sounds, Chicken - so Will's playing a tune is a form of attack against them. :p
I did actually ask for him to be striking a monster with the flute, but even then - A FLUTE?! WTF, seriously? Some of Ark's weapons were a bit dodgy - that sharp twig, the Sticker, for instance, or a pole tipped with an icicle (the Ice Pick), but even *those* are better than a lame-ass weapon like a FLUTE. |

And slowly my soul weeps and dissipates.
It's like the whole world hates me or something.

I'm sorry Tay, but really honestly, a flute?
OK, I guess there is an opposing viewpoint that Ark must be extremely super-badass in order to be able to take on all those monsters and everything with nothing but a flute for weaponry.
Consider that. It makes him infinitely cooler. ^_^ *Gives Tay some of teh cookiez* |

Yeah! Cookies! *munch*
See, that's what I always thought. It takes a badass to save the world with a flute. Although I was always surprised that he was still able to play it. It had to be covered in, like, monster guts and whatnot. _________________

Also, I wonder what his flute is made of? 'Cos it can't be a regular flute, otherwise he'd've bashed it completely out of shape within about 2 seconds into the first dungeon. |

But that's just the point, Chicken - the fact that Will did with nothing more than a flute, what it took both Blazer and Ark a whole armoury of weapons each to accomplish, makes him MOAR badass.
