These are avatars I made from Amano's FFVI artwork. Much thanks to i90east for giving me this idea from his FFVI avatars.

Terra
Locke
Edgar
Sabin
Shadow
Cyan
Gau
Celes
Setzer
Strago
Relm
Mog
Umaro
Gogo
Kefka
Gestahl
Ghost
Banon
Cid
Leo

I hope you like 'em. I also hope that they might become selectable avatars. smile.gif

EDIT: OK, these are the ones with transparent backgrounds. Oh yea, and I added Leo to the list.

EDIT 2: Hmm... Irev is acting phreaky-like, so I'll have to link to them all. mad.gif

These are good thumbup.gif

I like the one of Relm and the one of Mog is so unlike Amano's style its funny.

Is the old-ish guy with the tanned skin and blonde hair/beard supposed to be Sabin?

Terra, Locke, Edgar, Sabin, Shadow, Cyan, Gau, Celes, Setzer, and Strago.

Okay, I thought so. 'Course I guess I should have figured that by process of elimination.

Strago doesn't look like what I thought. I think he looks like a mechanic or fighter pilot er somethin'

Nice avatars. [sarcasm]Makes you realize what the characters would really have looked like, if only editors didn't get in Amano's way.[/sarcasm]

No, really. I don't like Amano's style, but this does give you some insight into the original character designs that inspired the actually-used character designs.

By the way, I think Strago is riding on a motorcycle (why?). And I also think you're missing Leo.

I couldn't find one for Leo. Send me a pic via PM, chat, or post it here, and I'll make it.

EDIT: Well, he delivered:

The only comment I have is to alter the brightness and contrast to make the BG on them white.
It will look better that way.

I do also have to say, that if you did that, I think they're nice icons.

Those are most excellent Figaro. Gee, now I don't know what avatar to use once these all become available. There will be so many good FFVI avatars. I love these except for Sabin, he looks seriously ugly. tongue.gif

I hate to be a downer here, but there are in fact 235 different avatars to pick from FF6 right now. I counted them.

Yes, these avs are okay. Hikaroo's suggestion would make them much better, IMO. But I don't know if we actually need more FF6 avatars. If you really are serious about getting some of your creations into the gallery, try doing some from a different game, maybe? I'd be a lot quicker to add well done avatars from a game that doesn't have many.

I will consider adding these nonetheless, but I really think some editing is in order yet. Good job doing the whole set.

nice work with them, but i think theres still a few too many FF6 avs. But Purgation may be in order, theres gotta be a couple no one uses...

I changed the ones up there for ones with transparent backgrounds (as needed) so hopefully they can be added as selectables soon. biggrin.gif

Thanks to everyone who helped me with PhotoShop or with anything else. You know who you are. thumbup.gif Thanks!
