FFIX - Artwork - Design Sketches, Pg 1
Before anything can be done on computer, every element of a Final Fantasy game has to put down on paper by hundreds of talented artists, and here's just a handful for you to look at!

| Eiko Carol computer render and sketches. Notice the little horn just above her forehead. | The two jesters are Zorn and Thorn, while the kangaroo-like warrior is supposedly Freya's boyfriend. Notice the very fantasy outlook in comparison to Final Fantasy VIII's standard townfolk. |

|
| Design sketches for the upper class citizens of Final Fantasy IX, borrowing very much from the styles of the English Georgian period. | Early design ideas for a black mage (there are many black mages in Final Fantasy IX that serve the Queen of Alexandria, not just Vivi). |

| Square obviously have done their homework on 19th Century dressing styles in England. | Here's six Moogles in different outfits: which one do you prefer - surely not the Convict in the bottom left corner? ^_^ |
