Earlier this year I had the opportunity to work on this piece in collaboration with SquareEnix TCG team.
I spent a day or two going over past CG visuals and game images, all the while pondering her character, and submitted three rough drafts. There was a lot of trial and error involved as I tried to balance the cute stuffed toy with her dark, sophisticated air. I also focused on what kind of lighting would complement FF’s high-quality production as well as coloring and film-like texture. Progress was very smooth as I’m especially a fan of “dark” characters. My favorite parts of this piece are her hair details and the magical effect for the stuffed toy.
