Searching for Amano art

Do we know if Yoshitaka Amano ever did drawings for minor characters such as Siegfried? One would figure, judging by the fact that the boss sprites in FF6 all have his signature touch, that Amano drew a picture of every single boss (Although I doubt thatā€™s true.)

Iā€™ve personally seen pictures of the following characters:

The 14 main characters, Kefka, Leo, Gestahl, Cid, Banon, Ultros, Chupon, Vicks, Wedge, Daluma, Magimaster, and Owzer. Surely there are drawings of more characters from this wonderful game?

Any ideas?

Lucky for you, I just spent weeks searching out Amano art for the new site banners. The most obvious place would be the FFCompendium Art Section, but there are a bunch of other sites on the web with more obscure pieces. Try using either Google or AlltheWeb and search for ā€œAmano Artā€ using an image search.

I will seriously offer a small reward for anyone who finds an amano sketch of Siegfried (nothing big, 5 bucks and a Nirvana bootleg cd maybeā€¦but hey itā€™s free stuff.)

Hey, you could donate to charityā€¦ My Pocket foundation, for example.

EDIT: HEEY, the FFC art section is pretty nice !!

So so sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but I didnā€™t want to have to start a new one and add clutter to the boards.

I was wondering if Amano did the character design for Final Fantasy Tactics? Iā€™m going to be at San Diego Comic Con and heā€™s there too. I have the moogle from FFTactics tattooed on me and wanted to show him, but thereā€™s really no point in doing so if heā€™s not the artist. Because then it just becomes, ā€œoh hooray, another rabid female fangirlā€

Thanks :slight_smile:

No, he didnā€™t. It was Akihiko Yoshida.

#10

Awesome! Thanks! Now I can wear a dress that day :stuck_out_tongue:

Aww, I wanted to see the tattoo. :hahaha;

Btw, around here it is preferred to start new threads rather than to resurrect old ones.No big deal, just so you know. :slight_smile:
