hey.. any of u guyz know where i can find some pics done by the same dude who originally did the artwork on the ff3 instruction booklet, my sig and avi?

please do tell

I'm assuming you're referring to Yoshitaka Amano, the brillant artist who was the FF character designer from FFI through to VI and IX (the other games he just painted the games distinctive logos). Well, if you want his FF art 'online', what better place to start looking than his own website? Try:

Amano's World at

www.amanosworld.com

By the way. I'm a HUGE Amano fan - he's a major inspiration to me as an artist, so you have good taste!

Finally, try tracking down one of his many art books if you like his FF art. I own one called 'Japan - Final Fantasy' which has all his conceptial art, paintings and lithographs from FFV and VI, and is simply divine - a visual feast. Unfortunately, it's out of print, and is somewhat of a collector's item, but if you can find it, grab it! You won't regret it!

"Heh, I guess my technique is getting a little rusty!" Edgar, after his pick-up lines fail on Terra, FFVI.

heh.. thanks a bunch!

that would be the mn im looking for... it's been to long since i've heard reference to his name as i left my only book with artwork from this guy back home on the west coast!

yes amono is a major inspriation for me when i sketch, however, it'll still talk awhile before i hit anywhere remote to his lvl.

Hey, no prob. Glad I could help a fellow Amano fan out! You definetely have good taste!

"What an old fuddy-duddy!" Relm, upset that Strago, her grandfather, refusesto let her go with him and your party to the Esper meeting place, FFVI.

I've also had a lot of luck with that at www.rpgamer.com . Might want to check out that one too.
