I loved every second of this one. You really went all-out on the transitions to the character art for the bosses, two of them especially in particular. The way it lined up with the music too for *that one*... Cinema. Absolute cinema.

Also, I had no clue about the rewards for the r3 Gummi missions!

Day 37: Ice Titan

Anyone else just... never get anywhere close to beating this guy until well into adulthood? Kinda crazy how inapplicable nearly every combat skill in the game is, but I'll give him this, he is certainly memorable.

Day 33: Hades

I had an idea way too late in the process to commission an additional orange "angry" mural of this guy so I could switch between them during his boss bio, but even without that, this is one hell of a mural. A favorite villain of mine, shame his voice actor is such a tool.

Day 34: Rock Titan

A silly boss to be sure, but no less deserving of the mural treatment than some already covered. I always liked fighting him as a kid, I wasn't really conscious of what bosses were and weren't hard, so I thought I was a badass beating something so big on my first try.

Day 35: Phantom

Crazy how Sora fights at least 4 unique Grim Reaper stand-ins that I can think of across the series, but Phantom did it first, and honestly, best.

Day 32: Behemoth

WOW this one is purple. Consider it a defiant scream in the face of all the recolors in Final Mix, justice for the purple heartless!

i have heard there's been a meme in the jp fandom that because everything burns is exactly 3:00 long it's the most hardcore instant noodle timer ever made

Day 31: Ansem Riku

This one actually turned out a LITTLE busy for my liking, but there were a lot of iconic aspects I wanted captured, and the Ansem Silhouette really hits all the right notes.

Day 30: Maleficent

It's not fair, there's really no contest, but this is my favorite by a long shot. The rising fire effect was directly inspired by one used by Disney's imagineers in rides like Haunted Mansion. The flames are drawn on a larger circle, which is rotated behind the mural.

I got to visit there once, a few years ago. It was really cool, I hate to see this...

Using the strategy board for it's intended purpose.

To play Chess. #FFXIV

Day 25: AntiSora

Had a ton of fun with this one, fans of the series will recognize it as being based off of Sora's official mural, with a few obvious differences. My personal favorite is the use of the Dark Coastline as the background.

-About someone behind their back. I'm only really comfortable doing it if it's for positive reasons, like planning on getting someone a gift and wanting to coordinate, or things like that.

Yeah... And I get being conflict avoidance but if somethings genuinely bothering you (not you specifically, general "you"), just... talk? I'd give an example where I've given this advice to someone before after they complained about someone else, but no specifics because, well, I don't like talking-

A lot of the time people are just... very self-centered. I struggle understand it myself, the not caring about how your words come across to others, even if I've fallen victim to not thinking about it... But talking behind your back? That's a whole other level. I'm so sorry.

With FFXIV's new patch coming soon, and with it the end of the Arcadion, I decided to take pictures of all my jobs (that have proper glamours), inspired by the pictures for each of the Arcadion's fighters! First up, Dancer, Monk, Bard, and Summoner!
#ffxiv #gpose #Arcadion

When I was a kid who didn't fully understand how games worked, I used to always avoid that area because I was scared that Oogie as his house would come back, and the fact that he was so big really scared me.

Day 24: Oogie's Manor

I gave Icarus almost no direction this one, though I did request the moon and purple globs. As such, he based the pose entirely off a scene from the game. This actually worked SUPER well, cuz I got to do a cool transition with it, which really made this piece stand out.

I'm so excited for this. Especially the duo fight, it's been years since we've had one.

And finally, last but not least, my Dark Sorceress Pictomancer! Taking all these pictures was a bunch of fun, and I look forward to doing the last six jobs once the glamour update comes out next patch! ...And maybe once there's more glamour plates, now that I think about it.

Next up, Samurai, Black Mage, Dragoon, and Red Mage! Black Mage is probably the one I'm proudest of, in part because it was the most difficult. Getting the timing right to enter gpose in the middle of combat during Alte Roite's Classical Elements, while in the right spot....

Get your game on: We'll soon be returning to the Arcadion for a new series of challenges! 🥊

Day 22: Lock, Shock and Barrel

This fight could have done SO much more, but at the same time, I'm almost glad it didn't. Genuinely Sora's biggest weakness in KH1 is dealing with multiple threats at once, so these three probably had to be as simple as they were.

Day 23: Oogie Boogie

Doing the best he can, I feel like this mural is probably the closest Icarus and I got to what Square would actually make if they made these murals themselves. Oogie as so much iconography to play off of, and this mural is a gift that keeps on giving. I can't believe my eyes.

saw a roach and sprayed it with the nearest available spray canister, which turned out to be a can of cooking spray

now the roach is extremely lubricated and frictionless and gliding all over

my favourite conspiracy theory is that all my hard work will pay off
