Description Wow...it's been ridiculously long since I've uploaded on here. Honestly, I tried canceling my account ages ago, and was surprised I even had a picture still uploaded! Well, happy coincidence: my return to DA is a Final Fantasy VI fan art! Go figure, right?

Oh right! Now for the picture's description. So I've been playing a lot of FFVI lately, and I really love the Locke/Celes dynamic. There's actually a lot of good sense in the pairing, and it's probably one of the most psychologically-developed couples in the series (ironic, considering how little dialogue they have compared to more recent and romantic games). Well, the GBA translation is extra love-y about them, so I suppose it inspired me! Anyway, this was just a bit of goofing around with my tablet, so nothing fancy.

Very nice! Beautiful colors and art style. I also like how Celes is happy...so many people portray her as frowning, when that isn't always the case (especially later on in FF6.)

My goodness, it's true! I'm guilty of drawing "brooding Celes," but I imagine that she's a much more decidedly optimistic person by the second part of the game. I've often thought of illustrating her with Cid, since I imagine she's incredibly joyful with him! Thanks for the kind words!

Celes and Cid would be awesome if you ever get around to it. No problem!

Hello! I'm doing a tribute video about Celes, and I was wondering if I could feature this piece of art in it? There will be a lot of Celes pictures set to an original, orchestral remix of her theme song. I will credit you and link to you, and I'll let you know as soon as I'm done! What do you say?

Goodness, please forgive my hiatus from DA! But please, feel free to use whatever of my art you like! Gotta spread the Celes love. Again, sorry for the delayed response, but please feel free to use it.

Thank you! I'm a mega-Locke/Celes fan, so I try to do them justice. I'm so glad you like it!

This has always been one of my favorite pairings! I really love how you did Celes' expression - pleased and a bit self-conscious.

christadaelia In reply to Rayless-Night [2011-04-12 23:36:48 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! They're one of my favorites, too. And Celes certainly is the type to be a bit uneasy with displays of affection!

Ah... FF6... and those 2 are also my favorites (they're also pretty angsty/frustrating but whatever... it's pretty normal considering both of their emotional baggages).
One thing I adore with this game is that it conveys so much with so little.

christadaelia In reply to ErikaVoyager [2011-03-24 21:29:35 +0000 UTC]

I totally agree! They're angsty, but not so obnoxious that they become annoying. They're just a great pairing, even with how little text there is between them. It's just an amazing game!

Lovely use of colour and pattern/texture! Don't know much about this pair since I sadly never played FFVI, but they do seem great together
