Mother3
Knights to meet ya'! - by ozwalled

Phantom Knight. I thought this Mother 3 enemy was kind of cool, and had tried to draw it before, but never found I did it justice. Then I thought of its "Phantom Knight" name, thought of putting the ghost in there, and I thought it really came together. I especially like the way the ghost is coming out of the helmet through the hole in the faceguard thing.

This was a pleasure again to do, given my childhood fascination with medieval stuff and swords and sorcery type high fantasy.

Done with pencil, a pen, and "Touch" markers.

ozwalled	Healer	Making drawings based on some of EB's small sprites can pose an interesting challenge, since some sprites don't have battle images or clay models to reference. So part of that challenge lies in trying to figure out just what a pixel or two might or might not represent. And another element of dificulty can come from trying to get away from the "short and squat", nearly "superdeformed" kind of style that those sprites were presented in, in typical old-school Nintendo fashion. A number of the Healer's visual elements were thus "made up" based on such pixel interpretation.	7/19/05
