Final Fantasy 9. Haven't seen you for a while! With all the hype over FF7, I think people aren't paying enough attention to one of the best of PSX, Final Fantasy 9. I have my wonders why this game is not nearly as hyped as FF7. The characters all have creative designs and many varying styles are packed in the game. In addition, there's ALOT of airships in the game (as oppose to only the highwind in FF7). I guess what I'm saying is, FF9 is a legend just like FF7, so why not the same hype? hm..
This piece took forever! The background totally killed me @_@; Many sleepless nights of hard work was put into this one. Mmm, Garnet and Zidane, how I miss you both. Don't you? :3
I concur, FF7 was overhyped, and FF9 was a good game that fell victim to bad marketing decisions. FF9 saw the most number of songs written for it, with extensive research to get the medieval theme right. The amount of amazing detail and potential for side stories and expansions is almost infinite.
Your hard work really comes out in that background, the cityscape obscured by dust and debris looks great. What I keep going back to is the bird to the right: you nailed it. The inward folding wings would have bested me.
