I'm doing my best to repress the urge to make a dirty joke about the size of his
gun...

I can do that for you, if you want.

Good translation into the style. Captures him pretty well.

He's a dude, right?
Nice. Balthier's got hips.

The Final Fantasy Tactics Art always seems to make the characters seem a lot younger than they really are...But then again, how old ARE the Characters in Final Fantasy Tactics in the first place? Ramza and Delita are, what, 15 during Chapter one?
I wonder if he'll be any better than Mustadio...

Someone ask: "How do they smell?"
I think it's because there are no noses in the FFT artwork. It's a well-known fact that young people do not have noses.

Close. But please, you know I always use a lower-case j.
Anyway, yeah, I just don't like the FFT art at all. It makes everyone look exactly the same. And the no noses bothers me.
However, that is a very big gun.

I kind of looks like those 19th century biological field notes.

Question is how does he smell?

Probably like gunpowder.
And leather oil.
Also: Some of the FFT art is decent, but I find it odd that ALL the FFT arts of people involve minimal shoulderage and hugebroadwowomfg hips on the men. It's like..... borderline-androgyny.

...You took the punchline :(
Anyways, yeah, pretty androgynous. Kind of worked well in FFT:A, since it eliminated the need for face sprites for each gender.

I actually do like the style of artwork. Can't explain why, I just do.

I personally like the style of the artwork because it's not trying to be "zomg we'RE realistic!!111". Hand-drawn sprites have just as much character as a model of Gman having a wonderful time.
