The length of blsh's limbs reminds me of Saki … the first anime I saw where the legs were over twice the length of the body xD. Didn't really have that much of a point there, save making everybody look like on stilts. Like your pic though =)

Gamer and stitcher

I would love to do some cross stitches for a marathon. Unfortunately, I won't be able to do so for SGDQ because I already have a project I need to finish for my brother's wedding about a week before hand. Who do I talk to or when do I get involved for AGDQ? Can someone help me? I've really been interested in getting involved with you guys for over a year and want to help with the best way I know how.

I've got a nice big Genesis grab bag that could theoretically go somewhere. Includes Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Golden Axe, Wonder Boy, and a few others. I just bought Goodwill out of their Genesis collection for like, $30, then thought I'd put them up as a prize =p

I made an account just to say that I'd like to contribute an illustration I'm nearly finished with, for the Alice: Madness Returns run - http://postables.net/stuff/AliceMad_pre02sc.png

I know my style isn't exactly conventional, so if you guys don't think it'll be much of a donation incentive, that's fine.

I will bring massive wads of cash to the marathon in hopes of winning this drawing.

I didn't think that Squall would be this big! He's just as big as our family's pet schnauzer. I had problems taking a picture of him, so I'm sorry about picture quality.

I ordered a Diddy Kong plushie and it has been shipped but I won't take a picture of it until I order and receive the DK plushie I plan on getting. I'll order DK on Thursday.

Okay, this is a work in progress, but just putting it up for now.

For Athena

It will be colored with colored pencil. You will get the original.

Admittedly, the sword is a little off, but it's inked now so um... guess it can fall under style. Tongue

I'm terrible at weapons. And feet.

Looks spiffy! Don't worry about the sword. I'm doing a picture of Athena, myself, and the sword is intentionally way off. I have to admit that your style is a lot closer to the original drawing's than mine will be.

ummeiko

2012-04-11 08:32:08 pm

Ah, didn't know if anyone else was for sure doing Athena. I just saw Brossentia request it in a couple different threads and I needed some ideas anyhoo.

And yeah, I'll admit it fits really well with my style.

When is the cut-off date for declaring prize donations?

I'm trying my best to make some perlers for the event, but I might not make it in time because of supplies, colour-blindness and work, etc, hehe.

Now that it's available for pre-order, maybe somebody would like to secure a copy of this as a prize?

brentalfloss' new album. It's stated to ship in early May, so that should be enough time to have it in hand. Wonder if we can also get him to sign a copy of it for us? Hmmm...

Alright! The Alice picture is finally finished: http://postables.net/stuff/AliceMad_finalsc.jpg. Now, barring me noticing some heinous error, that's what the print should look like.

(Edit: Normally, I wouldn't have even posted such a trivial update. The only reason I did is because the link has changed, so the one in the index is now broken.)

I had volunteered to do some perlers for Illusion of Gaia. However, I will not be able to do those anymore. Could you please remove those off the list? I think they were for Flaming Jackal, Shadow, and Metal Mantis. Thanks!

Hitting a wall. Anyone have any ideas for me? Perler or art or otherwise? Athena is almost done, so I'm looking at what to do next.

Everything's better with Magitek

Someone in my stream chat suggested this idea last night while I was streaming FF6: What about a perler of someone in Magitek armor? It'll be especially relevant since I'll be using a glitch to get all 14 main characters to wear Magitek outside of battles.

Updated to this point. Sorry for the long wait, I was in the hospital for three days and have been recovering (nothing major, I am fine and waiting to have a few tests done).

Once again, the deadline for mailing things to Essentia is May 15.

ummeiko (or even anyone else doing perlers), if you'd like a suggestion, I have one for a perler for the game I'm running, Aquaria. I was thinking of a perler of Naija, but apparently her sprite is actually composed of multiple parts and a full-body perler would be a bit on the large side I'd imagine. However, I think a perler of just her head would be nice to see.

http://bit-blot.com/aqmods/naija_sprites.zip

That link is for an Aquaria mod that contains a graphics folder which contains the components of Naija's sprite, including 6 different forms of heads. I think best choices would be her smiling or her singing. The head sprite is 64x64 in pixels, I'm not exactly sure how large that would be in perler form. One of my friends said that they were having issues with the color count of the sprite. I had also tried to shrink the sprite in half to 32x32, but even then, I'm not sure how that will look in perler form. But I am throwing this out there as a suggestion for a prize.

I'm actually gonna commision an artpiece from a friend of the title logo (just Terra and the magitek armor). I'd do it myself but I lack the talent to make anything aesthetically pleasing. It's gonna be 16"X20" on a wood block using resin. Wish I had more money to commision a lot more but I think this mini-project should come out nicely! Also, he's not a gamer so I don't think he'd be able to do his own interpretation anyway so it's pretty cut & dry. But yea you can't have too many FF prizes Grin

My vote would go for a magitek riding moogle as well.

You're right that a full-body would be a bit big. Like... 3 feet tall or so. (It would be roughly 7 1/2 boards. The tallest one I've done so far is 5 boards and that was just about 2 feet) However, just did some rough editing with photoshop and a bust doesn't seem too bad. The trickiest part is the color. There's not a lot of light green to work with in the perler palette. I'd have to play with it and probably simplify the color depth a bit and even then I'm not 100% sure it would look good. I will play around with it some though.

Um... admittedly I've never played FF6 and a brief google search at lunch didn't really provide much insight. Do you have an example or a reference?

The magitek armor is what you see Terra, Biggs, and Wedge riding in during the first 5 minutes of the game. However Essentia is taking advantage of a glitch that gives all the characters she wants that armor to abuse in ways she shouldn't be able to do.

The size is the reason why I suggested the head only. I know colors are going to be an issue, of course. But as I said, it was a suggestion, if it can or can't be done, so be it. Tongue

http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Magitek_Armor has both some sprites and concept art. http://www.videogamesprites.net/FinalFantasy6/Party/Terra/ has some more sprites of it.
