Final Fantasy VI - ATC - Terra

My favourite part of the Final Fantasy series. I tried a bit to emulate Yoshitaka Amanos style, but did not suceed ^^; I kinda like the colors though...Maybe I should do a few of the other characters.







I'm so excited about an upcoming one tiny book swap at craftster. It's my first swap there and so many talented people are joining...which also means PRESSURE!!! I sososososo hope I don't mess this up ^^;

Romancing SaGa ATCs

I love the SaGa Videogame series, but it sadly doesn't get much love )= At the moment I'm playing the first one on the Super NES (Romancing Saga Minstrel Song on the PS2 is the remake. Since I don't have a modded PS2 and it wasn't released in Europe I never played it and don't own it though.)



At the beginning of the game you can choose from 8 main characters and explore the world as you please. Aisha (the red haired one) is my favourite. The blonde girl is a fire magician named Miriam (or Myriam)(she looks comepletely diffrent in the remake!). She is not one of the main charactes but I always recruit her ^^















I did those ATCs just for fun (and I figured there won't be any SaGa swapy now or in the futire :p )



Even if you don't like the games, the character design and illustrations by Tomomi Kobayashi are simply gorgeous *-* ( No way I can come even close!)

Button fairy with bird wings - swap

I like ATCs and Inchies but even that can get boring after a while. A wanted to do something different and signed up for this fun little swap.

At first I was worried because I never made a button fairy before, but they are actually quite easy to do ^^



The wings of the red haired fairy are moveable.



















The next swaps are the last two parts of the Inchie-Color swaps. First blue and then violet. There is also a Retro Videogame ATC-swap that I'm looking forward to :)

Final Fantasy Character ATC Swap

Another fun swap. When I saw it I just had to join, especially since the rules said ANY title of the series was okay (everybody had to name 3 characters he or she would like to recieve).
I got really lucky because my partner named Fujin, Raijin and Ultimecia from Final Fantasy 8. I used to be like totally into FF8 and Fujin and Raijin belonged to my favourite characters, too =3
Drawing those I remembered how much I was into the game. Fun memories ^^



Still, I'm not happy how these turned out :/ Raijins face is a bit crooked...and well...both are really plain.
My partner liked them though, so they are not that bad, I guess :p
Hmm...looking at them now...they really could be better >__<;

6 kawaii Inchie - swap

A recent swap. I really had fun making those. I made two extra and I still had tons of ideas :3









Somehow I like the cat-cactus best. Next time I need to do a bunny-cactus :p

Hoot, hoot! 2

I already made this little owl stamp like 2 weeks ago. Nothing special...I was just in the mood for stamp carving ^^







It's ~2,5cm...I wanted to add more details, but it was too difficult.



I hope I can finish a few things that I started (like a big set of Inchies and a few ATCs) since I'm in no swaps atm.

kawaii ATC - swap

Here are the ATCs I made for this swap. Chocobo form the Final Fantasy games, Disney's Stitch and some jellyfish! They were really fun to make =D .



The Stitch blowing bubbles and the jelly-fish ones were for one partner and the Chocobo one was for the other partner. I included the turtle Postcard, too because I can't simply send one person two cards and the other only one ^^;



The jelly fish are so easy to draw and lately I love to do rainbow backgrounds. For the Chocobo (when I saw a picture of a baby Chocobo I HAD to include it =D ) and Stitch I had to use a reference picture though.





Actually I like how the ATCs turned out. (Yay~!)

Yesterday I send my Inchies for the Green Inchie swap and a kawaii Inchie swap. Now I'm working on a button fairy and wish to send it asap and then no more swaps for me for one or two weeks!

I've gotten such nice comments and ratings lately ;o; That's so encouraging! It's such a nice feeling hearing that there are people who like something I made (self-confidence +100!).

Sailor Mars ATC

I wasn't sure if I should post this or not. 1. I never recieved a rating 2. I'm not so happy how these turned out.
But 1. I should haved arrived weeks ago and I doubt it's a spoiler to anyone 2. They are not horrible...I just could have done better :/




I actually never was a big Sailor Moon Fan, but it's still very nostalgic to me. If you like it or not everyone kinda knows the characters. Also there is just something magical about short skirts, long legs and ribbons o.o;
