I’ve learnt alot when painting the azir piece, but I’m still far from perfect with expressing realistic metal. The gifs up there could be self-explanatory for the more experienced artist, but if you want the full breakdown, more below.

Yet another addition to the ever evolving FF7 au…. A newer take on Aerith, because the old design, while I liked it, was really lacking in some areas. I wanted to push her sarcasm and slightly manipulative streak but combine it with a youthful look, giving her that ageless feel. Aside that there’s a bunch of aesthetic changes, like the design of her dress and such.
Tifa worked out pretty well the first time, but I wanted to refine her outfit and personality a bit more. Less drastic than Aerith but I wanted Tifa to look more stubborn and brash. Like she’s always got something to prove.
Sorry for the repost XD Just thought i’d throw Tifa in there too.
They’re all here! I took it upon myself to create an illustration of a Mythological creature or character for every letter of the alphabet, trying to span across a multitude of cultures and creature-types. Another thing I wanted to accomplish with this project was to find some the more unusual and/or obscure creatures that don’t get as much representation in artwork. Individual Tumblr Posts with said creatures’ descriptions are below.
Again, I’ll be making this into a small run of books as a way to test the waters. If there’s more demand for a larger run, I’ll definitely be looking into it!
