Description
Exactly 2 weeks until the release of Fire Emblem Awakening!!After playing the demo, I'm even more excited! For some reason, even though there wasn't much I hadn't already seen in trailers, it felt so great in my own hands XD
So there's a countdown going on on tumblr... I didn't realize what it was about before so I didn't join. Now I regret it. So I decided to do my own countdown!
I will be posting a drawing of FE Awakening everyday until Feb. 4th. They'll mostly be sketches like this due to time and skill restraints, but hopefully I'll do at least one nice and finished piece before then XD
FE fans, here's the tumblr countdown with beautiful, finished art everyday!: [link]
14 days: featuring Chrom/ Krom.
(I'm going to be going down the character list on serenesforest for each day, skipping the ones that don't appeal to me at the moment XD)

Did you teach yourself how to draw hair? I only graduated from stick figures in my first year of high school. I can draw long hair alright, but short is such a different story...

Yeah I did, basically just copying what I liked and practicing lots.
Hmm yeah short spiky hair can be hard to get to look right... straight hair is easier because you can just follow the contour of the head =]

I love how Nintendo was trolling by announcing EU release way before NA but now I have to wait least 2 months after NA release <.<

Oh did they?!
We wait all the time for things to get out of Japan, but I guess it's worse when it has already made it to other English-speaking countries.
Hang in there! 2 months could pass pretty fast!

Awesome! I can't wait to see all your drawings! I think I've said it before, but your style fits FE characters just perfectly

Awww, you played demo... lucky... Whatevas, got that bundle and game pre-order already!! Whoo!!!
hope sumia won't be skipped XD

snowp In reply to Kramgnauh [2013-01-22 20:52:32 +0000 UTC]
You pre-ordered the bundle?! I'm so envious, but in the end I decided to stick with my XL and pre-ordered game card...
Haha wasn't your avatar Sumia at some point? Don't recognize who the girl is currently...
There's no way I can skip her after that comment now, can I? But seriously, she's pretty important in the game I think so I'm definitely drawing her.

Kramgnauh In reply to snowp [2013-01-23 01:03:18 +0000 UTC]
Dropped 220 bucks on it XD Would've wanted it to send it to a Gamestop store nearby so I can pick it up along with the physical copy of the game but they can only send it to you directly... whooo shipping costs. Though I kinda wish the bundle contained the XL instead of the regular one. Oh well :/
Yup, totally gonna be my waifu, screw canon The girl currently is Alicia from Valkyria Chronicles. It's a game kinda like FE with guns... it's kinda hard to explain
Yay!

snowp In reply to Kramgnauh [2013-01-23 23:52:07 +0000 UTC]
You're planning to grab a physical copy in addition to the bundle?? Way to support the franchise =]! Somehow I think the design as is might not look as good on a XL just because it's less shiny and the shape is not symmetric. But who can say? I like the XL way better in person than from photos online.
LOLL so you know about the canon too! Yeahhh I'm totally gonna make My Unit marry Krom XD Though I wonder if My Unit's kid, Morgan, will still exist, or if you only get Krom's kid.
Speaking of Valkyria Chronicles, I actually spent many hours watching a let's play of VC II on youtube since I don't own any Sony systems. I didn't actually watch any of the gameplay though lol, just the talking and cutscenes. I'm pretty sure Alicia was in that game too.
Who's on your avatar now? You changed it right after I asked!

Kramgnauh In reply to snowp [2013-01-24 00:21:33 +0000 UTC]
Yup! Got the money to spend But really, I just prefer a physical copy instead of a digital copy. Plus, there's a cool sprite of Masked marth and Krom on the cartridge. I would defiantly prefer the XL, bigger screen= better picture quality. I also heard it has better battery life, is that true?
LOL Oh I know way too much about the game for my own good T__T... been watching a Let's play on the Japanese version of Awakening. You can still have Morgan even when you have Krom's kid i assume you know all of the major spoilers Heck, there's even a hilarious and cute support between them XD
Yup, she makes a cameo in the main story of VC2 but you can play as her by entering some code. I also had to watch let's play for VC just like you T__T
Now, it just the not-very-amused-Frederik from a fanart i found XD I'll probably change it to Sumia soon

snowp In reply to Kramgnauh [2013-01-24 21:01:33 +0000 UTC]
I would probably have considered doing the same had I not spent so much money on games over just the past few months. Regarding battery life, I've heard that too, though I don't have anything to compare with and I hear it's not all that significant. I had planned to time it but I can't seem to keep the 3D on or off the whole time (because I love the 3D effect but my eyes can't handle hours of that).
Wow have you watched let's play for the entire game?? I usually can't resist the temptation of spoiler (and still can't really), but found that it really does take away some enjoyment for me, so I'm trying not to watch any anymore. But yes, I know quite a bit already XD
Lol I feel like you change it everytime after I ask!

Kramgnauh In reply to snowp [2013-01-25 00:32:26 +0000 UTC]
LOL that's too bad. What games did you buy? I heard about the 3D... hope I won't get affected too much by it >__<
Yup! I guess I got too much time to kill. I tend to avoid spoilers but for this game I couldn't stop myself I kinda watched a whole playthrough of Awakening already since I thought the game was never coming out to the US and I will never have the chance to play it. Welp, that sure changed So I guess I'm not going to enjoy the whole game as much as you are XD
Ahaha, seems so but not going to change it anymore since I got my new Sumia avatar up XD

It was more than just games... I decided to get a Wii and 3DS, all because of Fire Emblem games that I couldn't play otherwise (FE9, 10, 13), all in the span of a couple months orz. I also got Virtue's Last Reward, the sequel to Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors (that one was definitely worth it) and LoZ Ocarina of Time. And SSBB, even though I suck at it XD
The 3D, it should be fine as long as you take breaks in between. I haven't been able to keep it on for OoT because there too much button pressing that keeps tilting the 3DS, which messed up the 3D.
I know right?? I thought getting the game was already a miracle so I certainly didn't expect the bundle! I hope all the effort on promoting this game pays off =]

Kramgnauh In reply to snowp [2013-01-26 18:42:59 +0000 UTC]
Wow, that sure is a lot. You probably gonna get a Wii U since a new FE game was announced XD
Good to hear I guess hope my eyes can take it for the long hours i'm going to spend on the game
Let's hope. Apparently gamestop stopped pre-orders for the cartridge already so I guess that's good news

That's exactly why I was almost hating on the SMT X FE game initially!
I don't know if you've heard, but EB Games in Canada are already selling the game. I'm off to pick up my pre-order later today o_O

I have nothing to complain about and I'm not. But it doesn't quite feel right. Would they really break the release date of a game like Zelda? If not, it's like they're saying Fire Emblem is no big deal.
And it's so anti-climatic. February 4th was supposed to be a big deal, that's why I'm even doing the countdown! To have that suddenly taken away, and not being about to celebrate at the same time as everyone else. I feel like I just got kicked out of the group o_O
