Diane's the older sister of the two (I think she's the oldest of all three), but your depiction of Tao definitely looks more like an adult and seems far more confident than I would expect from a mage apprentice. Disregarding her backstory, however, the artwork here is nice and I didn't know an older, matured Tao was something I would greatly appreciate seeing. <3

Thank you, Tisbore, for continuing this series of drawings. Will the entire Shining Force 2 roster get the same treatment when you're done with the first Force game (which is technically a sequel, as well)? I do believe I've seen you draw a few of the characters from that game already (Zynk being the favorite of the ones I've spotted so far).

Tisbore responds:

Most drawings are just my interpretation, for fun.. lol. I plan to draw SF2, just wanna draw some other stuff first.. thanks for commenting!

I don't know why, but that facial expression gives off a completely different vibe to how I always imagined Gong. When you recruit him, it's basically just him telling you, "I'm Gong. I'm joining your team. This conversation is over." The blunt, pushy attitude combined with the serious look of his portrait makes me think he's been through a lot and just wants it to end. Here, you got him seeming like some good-natured oaf just wanting to put his brute strength to good use helping others. Either way, the drawing is excellent.

Welcome back, Tisbore.

One of the best characters in the game! I love having Gort on my team. Sometimes I have him paired with Luke/Lug, but I'll sooner drop Luke than I will this brawling drunk. Good early on. Great in the late game. Even your artwork highlights the badass old man energy coming off from this guy.

I originally thought Khris was a deer girl and didn't realize she was just a poorly-drawn dog until I saw her redesign in the remake. I thought she was attractive, but that's partially because her design stood out more from the other characters who joined the party early on and partially because her introverted personality was refreshing from the other, braver characters you unlock. I do not like her in the remake, even with the maid outfit. I do, however, like this drawing. Never thought about what she'd look like from a front view, but now I know anyhow!

Thank you, Tisbore

Tisbore responds:

Lol.. I thought she was a deer anthro too! I even drew her with deer type ears till I read about her race, I changed her ears back to elf like ears.. thank you!

I greatly dislike her official art work, but I adore Anri's in-game portrait. You got kind of a half-and-half here. An overall excellent illustration, but I kinda wanna punch her in the face, too. I don't know.

There's a fair amount of mileage with this character. It's a shame she isn't playable in CD or Gaiden, but I always appreciate seeing the old faces pop up in later sequels... even the ones I want to punch.

Thank you again, Tisbore.

The magic is nice. It keeps him safe early on, since he's pretty crummy when you recruit the guy, but those spells don't really do much later on. Still, Arthur really turns into a powerhouse if you're willing to level him up, so those spells are not all that important anyhow.

The drawing's decent. I always thought Arthur was kinda chill and soft-looking, but he comes across as serious and rigid here. Maybe some of the others jokingly asked him if he could wash their clothes.

Ah yeah! There's my fly boy! Not a great fighter, but I thought he was cool and would leave him on my party as long as I could afford to go without someone better. I rarely got him to the last battle, because he just doesn't get all that powerful and trying to not kill weakened enemies just to let him get the final blow was too much of a hassle and a bit risky in later fights.

The pose looks like he was told to stand still for this drawing and he's now passing the time watching what other people are doing. I really like the detail work and colors though. Beautiful work, Tisbore.

She's the one most eager to fight, but is also the least powerful character in the air. Go figure. Even without the internet to tell me, it doesn't take long to realize how ineffective she is in battle. Leveling up Bleu or Adam might be a major hassle, but the both of them can eventually become some of the strongest fighters on your team. She never really shines and isn't worth the hassle to maintain just for the convenience of flight. It would be a different matter if she and Balbaroy had some sort of special team attack, but using up two slots on your party just so they could both deal lackluster damage and not even manage to 2v1 most enemies without taking a hit or two? Bleh. Recruit Kokichi and let him work with Balbaroy, instead.

Her overall look is fantastic. A lot of love was provided in this fan art that is seldom given to her during an actual playthrough of the game. No complaints, no suggestions, no nuthin'. If her portrait looked as good as this, I likely would have had her on my team (at least for a little while longer). As it currently is in-game, I spent years thinking Amon was a male.

Thanks again, Tisbore.

Is alright. Not much more to type about it.

Mewx responds:

Yeah I agree too.

As far as the chin goes, it fits well with the original art. Then again, the art for nearly all these characters includes a somewhat-to-very long and pointy chin. Diane either lacks a chest or hides it under her outfit, so no fault there. The outfit looks good and the hair is decent. I think the arms and legs are a little too thick and it's weird to see her legs spaced so far apart while aiming. Not only do women generally not spread their legs out like that (for obvious reasons), but it also gives the impression that her bow is too heavy to hold with standing up straight.

Nice to see her right after Zylo, but I also hope we get fan art of her sister Tao soon. Wendy would be fine, as well.

Tisbore responds:

Thanks for always commenting. As for her pose, she's using a long bow, and its a jrpg. So I used a kyudo archer reference. I thought it would be fitting.
