As promised...

okay...with the help of FFXI and dat modding...I present to you, my characters rendered into 3 dimensions
of course these aren't perfect, and I wish I could get bigger screenshots for ya but I do my best...anyway the order will be random, basically I will now be playing not only to lv but to collect the proper pieces of gear (in case a dat doesn't look close enough like what I want) for how I want my characters to look

okay, 1st I kinda have Rhaan (me) done...totally gay (or pimpin, whichever you prefer) purple rdm AF mod...even got glasses for him since I wear them in RL all the time ^_^

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLL

WTF are you supposed to be? a pimp? ^_^

well the character is gay...and a mage in the game lol so that's why the purple rdm gear (happens to be my favorite color anyway)

but while we're on the subject of pimpin anyway...another wonderful dat mod screenshot
is it Mich (ffxi char name) as the pimp and his hoe jeauno?
or is it mistress Jeauno and her man whore Mich?
you be the judge! lmao

Verona
I may change the color scheme if Ver wishes, but I loved my latest dat mods so much, I decided that Ver's character should be equally awesome xD
anyway, since ver is an archer, I had to SS the character preparing her shot ^_^ (and yes lol, I did 1-shot the weak mob I was aiming at)

Tatiyana
For Tati's character, I was heavily inspired by Siela from the Capcom hack-n-slash Chaos Legion; though she is not a playable character, she was a very beautiful women and often in the thoughts of the leading men having left an impact on their lives
Ok, so there are no perfect dat mods for Siela's dress, but I'm not going for perfect copies here anyway (less to incurr copyright infringements); I used a hair mod to make the char's hair a tad longer (it's now about the same length as Siela's was); though the character has it in a ponytail here, Tati will often have her hair down and straight; very few changes to the outfit although the red part of the dress will be white and the gold sequined parts of the upper body part will be green (though the choker will be black), the shoes are spiked heel boots (black leather); here she is then, Tati! xD oh, and the character here has blonde hair (simply because Siela's hair was blonde) but the final color is up to Tati

Shoyo
ok, so here I did Shoyo; the dat mods were developed for mithra so that's the reason for the mithra (all characters in my game will be human in appearance); anyway, yes she is basically wearing a trench coat over a black thong (which supports the fact that her character is an assassin of sorts, not to mention on the enemy's side lol) this will so push the ESRB ratings but very fortunately there won't be many times that we'll see what's inside the coat (although I am thinking that somewhere in the story will be a bedroom scene involving some of the enemy characters; kinda like the scene between Miang and Ramsus in Xenogears; you will get a clear view of Shoyo's character's body from behind and any view of her from the front will be closeups on the face; I want the characters to be portrayed beautifully and never vulgar (so no actual sex scenes guys, cry over it later lol))

Ash
ah...my beloved Ashi...hehe; anyway, I really like corsair AF (pirates...so sexy...but I digress xD) so anyway, a beautiful dat mod of the AF, changing the colors to white and black instead of the mundane tan color; it should be noted that the outfits the characters wear in these screenshots MIGHT NOT be what they'll be sporting for all of the game but for at least certain events I plan to put in it they WILL be wearing these outfits (and perhaps by doining sidequests, yada yada, the player may be able to earn the ability to wear these outfits anytime they choose...I do like variety, the same old clothes get boring after a while xD); you'll notice I'm not too fond of the pirate hat and prefer a black Trader's Chapeau instead (oh and the second SS was simply so you could see the recolored boots...<3 <3 <3 those boots!! ^_^)

Jeauno
yay! jeauno's here...now it's a party, lol xD; okay, so I know jea's favorite color is red, so the colors on these mods will likely remain the same as they are; yes the face mod makes her ginger (lol, south park); yes, this means she owns lol; so, tried to take SS at the end of the dance emotes for samba and choco jig...jea! I hope you like this (I know I do at least lol) <3 you ^_^

Ihm
omg, ihm, omg; lol, so a redone smn AF and a half decent hair mod that's actually kinda close to ihm's hair in rl (more or less); meh, no decent mods to get a beard so hmm...I guess it means ihm shaved lol

BK
lalala, I'm bored, ladidi, here's BK if you care...hummmdeeeduuummmm, lol; so now trying to be serious again, it's the blu AF modded to more black and dark blue w/ gold; pretty cool IMO; I would've used the large cloak but there are no mods of such and this still suits the character's style (since blue mages use their enemies skills; BK can at anytime mimic any of the main characters' styles and because he more or less materializes the weapon of whoever he copies, his character never actually never carrys a weapon)

Vincien
ok, so I saw this armor...made to resemble the firebenders' armor from Avatar and you know...I really like it! lol; the helmet was included w/ the modded set and it'll be up to Vin whether it stays or goes (IMO, it's not necessary to have but it's cool and reinforces the fact that the character is "evil" lol); it was made for elvaan so yeah, the SS is of an elvaan lol

Kimimaru
who says "evil" ppl have to always wear dark colors? bah, that gets boring after a while lol, so here's kimi's char; nice change of pace xD

Trice
so, when I saw this gear I was all "zomg! Trice MUST have this!!"; lol, it really suits him...and hopefully I won't have to say why xD; very cool stuff, <3 it and I hope you like it too Tricey! ^_^
