Description More Fire Emblem art, herpaderp. Haar, Jill, and Shiharam from Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn.

...And Jill's wyvern. Geh, it took forever...

*SPOILERSES*

It's an artwork with meaning! But seriously, I find the whole backstory of these three rather touching. The piece is basically about how Jill's dad may be gone but is still watching over her. Additionally, Jill still has the support of Haar (and her wyvern, hoho). Daaaaw.

*END sorta-SPOILERS*

Two things worth noting: 1) armor sucks and 2) Haar is a beast.

asdsdrkjf th-that's amazing! The amount of work and detail you've put into this is really breathtaking. I love the idea of Shiharam watching over Haar and Jill; it's very cute, and it's quite rare to actually see him in fanworks, so as always I love seeing art of underappreciated characters.

(And I don't see any problems with the armor - in fact, it looks really good to me.)

Thankies! True that, he doesn't get much attention. LOL, it was especially a problem when I was trying to find references for the armor... luckily I conveniently didn't have to worry about his greaves. *innocent whistle*

Woah, this is beautiful.
Firstly, I like the background; secondly, armour looks great; and finally, the wyvern looks fantastic. Your efforts really paid off!
I see you're exploring a new way to draw faces, I really like it. Maybe it's just me but I think Jill's nose seems a tad wide...
I really like the meaningfulness of this pic. The "ghostly" effect around Shiharam is well done.
Good work!

Thank you thank you! Yeah, it easily could be. Noses are still a bit of a bane to me, and I keep messing with the colors of 'em as well. Trying to get that ruddy-redish look without detracting from the rest of the face.

Great job on Haar's armor. I've always liked his pauldrons. Good job on the pic as a whole!

I love it<3 I just recently re-played the chapter where these three were big part of and it always makes me sad how we can't get all three of them in the army... But I also like that part of the story exactly because it's so touching, as is this picture too>w> I think you did well with the armors and Jill's wyvern looks great

Nice work

Gondalier In reply to ScytheDancer [2011-05-20 07:18:27 +0000 UTC]

It totally is. Kinda appropriate and all, but still really sad. I wish Shiharam had some sort of bonus character guest appearance in RD, he's really pretty down-played. Thankies!

Oh, waw. This is really well done. I like your painting style in this picture. :3 The wyvern came out so well. <3
Jill, Haar and Jil's father came out very well as well. :3

I don't think that's quite a comfortable position though. :X
