CIRCUS OF GAIA! They all look like clowns. D8
I will redraw them. I will take in consideration their sprites, attitudes, living conditions, all the factors! YES! I will save them! (even though I won't do that much better)
.... when I have time...
well. THE TIME HAS COME! I didn't replay the game because I was to eager to do this. I did take in consideration their ages, attitudes, and previous designs. I didn't redraw all of them either (no Freedan, Shadow, or Hamlet/Becky), but I did add a few. I mostly used the sprites for referance, but I did occasionally look at Moto Hagio's designs (I can't look at them that long without my eyes burning). They are just coloured sketches. Don't kill me. For what you are about to see may be disturbing. veiwer discresion is advised.

I like this alot. Your art style is a nice blend of east and west. A couple of things came to mind, but none of them were deal-breakers:
1. The characters look too old.
Keep in mind these kids are in their tween years. Your art makes them look like teenagers (and makes the young Erik look like a 13-year old). This is good, though, because it gives an idea of what they will look like when they grow up (at the end of their journey, so to speak).
2. Jackal?
I am interested in your decision to cast Jackal as the final member, and also approve of your take, considering you only had a sprite to work with.
3. Neil...
Um... no offense but Neil kinda looks like a girl in this drawing.
Other than that great job. It's a hell of a lot better than I or most of the board could do, I'm sure.

1. In the North american version, Will is 16 and the others I thought were about the same. I have been told liessssss D:
2. Jackal! Honestly, If I were to make a graphic novel with this one day, I would have given him a bigger role. He had potential...
3. Seth. Seth is worst. I didn't think Neil looked to bad... but all my male characters tend to be girlly so... x___x
I always mess up anatomy.... I haven't taken any formal art classes.... I will soon though~~~ *determination* I will redraw them.... again.... with freedam and shadow! *^*
