Description
Took me a long time lol, but heres my recent FF fan-art, depicting Yuna from Final Fantasy X performing "The sending" an act that summoners such as Yuna herself do to send away pyreflies ( those pretty glowing spirits, which may be loosly based on one of Japans ancient traditions involving free spirits depicted as fireflies ) in order to let them go to their final resting place, if not, then the beauties can potentially grow jealous of the living, and turn into more irratating enemies that caused me to drop out of the game ( yeah, I'm pathetic, hopefully this here makes up for it lol ).Once again, like most of my fan-art, it was referenced from a small, low-quality screenshot from a video lol, some may recognise this scene from the game too, the pose, angle and sunset lighting in this exact frame made for a dramatic and beautiful scene I just had to draw, even though I knew it would be hard
I got a similar themed fan-art with Rikku too [link]
Yuna's character design by Tetsuya Nomura. Artwork here by me intened for personal viewing purposes only. Not to be displayed on other sites without permission

Lol, I just couldn't make the mouth work for me it hardly showed up in the reference picture, so I kinda had to make it up. Glad you like the rest though

oh man this is so awesome! The first -and last, lol- time I drew Yuna, I remember I got so annoyed while drawing a pyrefly. Took me wayyy too much time than I planned.
so now I wonder... how do you actually get these bright rainbow colors from the pyreflies? Did you paint that or did you use special layers/filters/something else to create something so beautiful?

Lol, I don't blame you for drawing it only once. And many characters I made are all one-offs too ( except for Cloud lol ), Theres many advantages, and disadvantages in both traditional, and digital art when compared. On the "advantages" side, the pyreflies were made a little easier to make, as their tails are actually manipulated from fractals ( I sometimes use them in space-scenery for nebula's and galaxies too ). And the rayed lights from the body of them were partially drawn manually, partially made easier with filters. After drawing the coloured rays, I did a "radial blur" filter to soften and spread the rays to get the effect of how light appears through a camera ( I used that technique here too [link] ) Though having said that, those Pyreflies alone still probably took around 2 hours to do

It was my favorite scene in the game. The music, the mood, the dance and the fact she was doing it all on water.
You did an excellent job with this. I love the lighting and the reflection off the water-you even caught the texture of the skirt! It's an impressive piece and it really brings out the emotion of the scene!

Thankyou very much, yes it was a brilliant scene and how she did it on a column of spinning water was even cooler Thanks for noticing all those little things too

Thankyou. I wasn't planning on this actually, just got a sudden urge to draw another femal FF character nearly two weeks back, so it's even a little stranger with that coincidence, almost none of us saw it coming lol

wow finally You ended Your fanart. I can't say anything it is amazing work and look better and better like scene from game ^^
Your work has more magic, more vivid colours, and look profesional. You give her many emotions ( I see). When I'm seeing her I hope she move in this moment great.
Finally one word of critize (don't kill me) I think her chick is a bit sharp, but maybe it is your own concept

Chromattix In reply to warrior-of-dream [2008-06-14 12:28:23 +0000 UTC]
Thankyou, I try to get the detail in my fan-art as close to the actaul game as I can, which is especially hard in the Final Fantasy ones, as they have the bar set pretty high lol.
her "chick" is sharp? didn't know that was apart of the body
( you were probably trying to say "chin" right? ) if so, then it was a li'l intended, as eevn though their characters are fairly realistic, they still have a slight anime influence in them, which is where their pointy chins arise from
