And here are some gents for D-Deck, a playing cards deck gathering characters from all over the FF worlds. Can you recognise them all?
Release planned for April-May 2020. New tag isFF playing card project. If you’d like to help me out, Patreonis the place to go. It’s the supporters there that make everything I do possible.
Tribute art to my favorite Final Fantasy, IX. Played this back when I was a kid and it still has a special place in my heart. Everything about IX resonates with me from world, story, artstyle, characters etc. Garnet, Vivi and Zidane stand in particular as my favorites as they overcome strong personal dilemmas that can be deeply rooted in life as well as how intrinsic they are in each other’s character development. Those aspects made them truly authentic and relatable to me.
Lately I’ve been playing a lot Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia in which my main is Zidane because I’m very fan of FF9 :3
While I was playing, while playing I came up with the crazy vision of Garnet and Zidane being kings of Alexandria…for some reason I had always wanted to do it but I had never dared to do it until now; Since I was a child I always thought it would be wonderful to see them in this facet, being both king and queen, married and loving each other a lot and having a nice happy ending
I also want to put them the name of some of the virtues that I feel represent both in the game, in the case of Garnet is “Love” (because she do everything for her kingdom and fiends be fine, blaming even herself when Alexandria is destroyed without being her fault) and for Zidane is “Hope” (because in all the adventure is the one that stays positive with all the team, being a friend a good and a guide of good advice)
I hope you like the vision that I had of this two as kings of Alexandria x3

I’m guilty of buying FF IX on the PS3 even if I have an original black label PS1 copy. FF IX is my all-time favorite Final Fantasy followed by 10. I also kinda wish they could remake it but that would ruin the originality honestly.
I really wish there were more people in the world like Zidane Tribal. I simply adore him and I would love to have an older brother like him. If our world had more people like him, we would live in a much better and nicer place.
