I really love this modern AU OK

You can find a lot of videos showcasing My Room confessions and the like on Youtube if you're ever itching to see them again. Himynameismaurice is a good channel to turn to if you want to see gameplay and skinship videos. I don't mean to self-advertise, but you can also swing by my youtube channel, where I've uploaded videos of everyone's Rank Finish lines in My Room/Amie :>

God bless this modern AU

Experimented with a different method of colouring, not completely pleased with the result but nothing wrong with trial and error :>

Well, for me, since I like the characters a lot more than the characters in Awakening, I find myself enjoying and being excited for everyone's support conversations a lot more :>

Haha most of the things that I love about the game have already been mentioned but what I agree with the most, are how the characters are lot more interesting than in Awakening. I don't know why but for some reason I couldn't really get attached to the first gen characters that much and found myself liking and using the children characters a lot more because I enjoyed their relationships with one another. I really like the My Castle feature because, like some people have said, it's almost like a break area after clearing a chapter. I'm also a huge sucker for the extra customization accessories you can put on your units and see them wear them in battle because I honestly think that's hilarious (kind of reminds me how in Persona you can dress everyone up as butlers, maids or even Christmas gear and it would be great). I loooove how the gameplay looks a lot harder and I think it's smart that grinding isn't as accessible as it is in Awakening (REEKING BOXES EVERYWHERE) because, as fun as it is to watch my clearly over-leveled units clear the map without breaking a sweat, it's not very exciting and part of the reason I play Fire Emblem is to feel that apprehension of "Oh god, will my units live??? Is this the right choice??? NO ONE MUST DIE". Also the fact that there's three games means that I will clock in so many hours for each game because I never just play a Fire Emblem game and not replay it right after.

You're welcome! He looks great in your signature :>

Ahhh! Thank you so much for your kind compliments ;u;! You can put a link to either my forum profile or you can link to my tumblr (the link to it is in my signature) and just say "Ryouma pixel is made by -insert link here-".

Got multiple requests for Hinata pixels! Feel free to my pixels as long as you give credit to me on anywhere you're going to use them!

Yay! Finally some critique :D Thank you for taking the time to critique my art and even make some suggestions! Yup, that is indeed a plain bow haha! I was getting a bit tired as I was finishing lining the drawing that the bow was the last thing that needed to be lined so I kind of got lazy there... I agree that my bodies are kind of stiff! I've been trying to explore with outlining my own poses, but a lot of the times they turn out not as dynamic as I pictured in my head so I should start looking at pose references because I've been too conservative with the poses and bodies. Critique is more than welcomed so thank you again! :>

I'm taking pixel requests from tumblr and I got two votes for Flannel so here he is! Feel free to my pixels as long as you give credit to me on anywhere you're going to use them!

I wanted to draw myself in my favourite Fates class which is Bowman! ヽ(゜∇゜)ノ

I'm not the best at drawing abs or muscles in general myself, but I bookmarked this really useful tutorial on how to draw abs! From observation, abs shouldn't be completely connected with one another because of the small space that separates each ab muscle so I think if you erase the line separating the ab muscles, it'll look a bit more natural :> It's a very good drawing, by the way!

All that's left is for someone to draw him hair flipping someone in the face. I've already seen someone draw him whipping his pony tail accidentally in someone's face which is hilarious.

God bless Kozaki and his latest sketch of Takumi with his hair down.

this is a bit off topic but I just read Lazward and Saizou's support and just I'm gonna cry ;A;

That is the most colourful lobster I've ever seen ...wonder how it'll taste...

I love how incredibly unimpressed Shinonome looks

I'm just here to post a quick update that I opened up commissions so please email me in the address written on my tumblr post if you're interested :>

It's mostly a matter of how both genders are dressed, and how the female designs just have to have a part of their body exposed while the male is covered from head to toe (with some classes being an exception of course like Fighters and Dark Mages). I'll use one Awakening class design as an example. Male archers are covered throughout and yet female archers have their cleavage exposed. Like, do you really want to go into battle with your chest almost completely exposed? That's what they mean by 'less practical'. No one goes into war, where spears, swords and fire balls are being slashed and thrown around, with parts of their body unclothed. It just doesn't make sense. This rule doesn't apply to just Awakening or Fates so people can't help but question some of the logic that goes into some of the armor designs. I get that sometimes it's easier to move around without armor covering up certain parts of your body, but at least cover over it up with a layer of clothing or something.

I think his hair is pulled up into the bun for the sketch. I do wonder how its able to stay up like that because Takumi looks to have a lot of hair and he seems unfazed by the fact that all his hair is bunched up in one place. I can just imagine him slowly leaning back because the bun is pulling him down

I'm pretty sure they aren't supposed to be dressed for battle. I think Kozaki wanted to draw them wearing outfits on their down time; when they aren't in battle. I think it's charming because we get to see the characters outside of the battlefield because walking around with tons of armor looks a bit exhausting.

I would cry of happiness if Kozaki drew Lazward in casual clothes at some point oh man. I feel like he might pair him up with Odin and Luna or maybe Marx in the sketch just because

I'm a huge sucker for seeing characters wearing casual clothing aside from their battle gear so I'll be pretty excited if we get to see plenty of that in the manga. Drawing armor in general is a pain in the butt imo especially if they have intricate designs like whoa pretty, but oh my god I have to keep switching back and forth from the reference and the canvas I'm working on just to make sure I got it down pat. Making a pixel Ryouma like the pixels in my signature was such a pain OTL

I think the main reason why he tends to be under fire from people is because there's a lot of criticism towards how some characters are designed, particularly females. If you haven't noticed, in comparison to the male counterparts, some of the female designs are a bit more unnecessarily revealing (For Awakening, ie. Wyvern Riders, Archers, etc), which can stir up topics like sexism and the like. But the fact of the matter is, he isn't the one who seems to be in charge of designing armor and it's unfortunate that he gets blamed for design aspects that he simply has no control over. I think he's a fantastic artist and I wish the armor designers would be a lot more practical when it comes to making armor for the characters.
