Description inspired by tsukiko amano's koe. such a pretty song. +_+

If you come close enough for me to fall into the depths,
I'll become a shadow, wandering the endless darkness.

the translation in-game is slightly different, but that's the text I looked at prior to drawing the picture.


I love the fatal frame series, but would someone kindly kill the kusabi (FFII) for me? ._.

Holy crap, I have not had a proper Fatal Frame conversation in YEARS. Who was Sai, and are you sure? The Kusabi were creepy as fuck. That and the mourners from FF2, and the ladies with their gouged-out eyes... UGHHHH, that entire game was creepy as hell.

lol Sai was the crazy laughing woman in the bloodstained kimono that would one hit kill you if she caught you, and your camera would never work if you even so much as tried to take a photo of her also this kind of cemented her scariness www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmH6XP…
oh and did you know that they re-released FF2 on the Wii with all new graphics and added content/endings? there's one ending that made me unable to sleep for that whole night, want me to show it to you?

okay here it is all new graphics and voice acting (British!! ) I first saw this ending I couldn't sleep for a long while
www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmkcKv… they also made a fatal frame game for the DS too

cool, I own a DS so I'll look into it. Why'd they go for british accents when the characters and setting are obviously japanese?

suyuku-san In reply to StefTastan [2014-06-22 23:50:43 +0000 UTC]

because the game was licensed in the UK and not the US, (at least so I learned via internet) I'm still trying to hunt down the game for the wii. by the way what did you think of the ending that I showed you?

I MUST CONFESS.

I didn't finish watching it. :< I don't remember the FF frames being so slow.

oh well if you skip the ending credits (after the part where Mayu reaches of Mio's throat) you get a bonus scene it's both creepy and spooky. I was wondering what you thought about the whole "Mayu possessed by Sae" thing
I also think it's because it's a remastered game (new graphics and such) that they added more endings and made some of them longer too it's not all bad when you think about

Gorgeous colors and use of space. The butterfly is so luminous and innocent, but the dark water and the billowing clouds suggest something sinister is coming.

Also, Fatal Frame = <3.

yes. it is confirmed for Wii only so far. I don't own a Wii and didn't plan to own one since it has no games that interest me. I was really hoping they would take Fatal Frame 4 to new levels but now i am not so sure.

Really dude this is by far my favourite thing you've done. If there's a criticism I have about your work, it's that sometimes the negative areas (ie. unused spaces you frame your subjects with) make the whole thing look less cohesive. Not here, though. The water keeps her anchored while the lighter tones of the legs and mist break it up and keep things crisp.

The light reflecting off the skin looks good too. The neck, clavicle and boobs look hawt. Maybe some more work on the arms if you ever have a similar subject. The dress and her pose draws attention to them and I'm looking particularly at her lower right arm and hand - it's tucked under her bust, where you've shaded, but there's little shadow on the arm itself, especially since there's no candlelight in front of her to play off it.

That's a tiny thing though, this is really fucking amazing Stef and I totally love it. It's printed out and stuck next to all my Biffy posters right now ^^

Wow... this is breathtaking. I didn't even know it was FF until I read your comment, which makes me like this even more.

I haven't played III yet. It looks so awesome though.

What's the kusabi? Is it that thing that the evil girl summons in the room where everyone was killed that kills you instantly?

StefTastan In reply to tommy-tonebender [2007-06-20 00:39:56 +0000 UTC]

yep, the very same! I am just simply unable to kill that thing. it's a spawn of satan, I swears. which is sad, really. I normally would be able to kill it, but the instant-kill handicap ruins all my strategies. *noooooooob*

oh yeah, the kusabi's a pain in the ass in that game as well. but even more so in FFII because he kills you with one touch! I still can't bring myself to beat him in that game!

And I don't know WHY this is, but your art style makes me think of horror manga for some reason. Classic horror manga, with useless slaughter of pretty young women.

I wanted to add some blush to her cheeks, when this was in the coloring stage her skin was deadly gray. I guess when I was editing it on photoshop I saturated the colors a bit too much. x.x;
