Phantasy Star Cave Message Board

Here's a sketch of Thea from PSIII that I made the other evening. A number of colleagues say that if anyone ever made a deck of PS playing cards, this picture would make a great queen. Heh. Hope you all like it.

Eyes are way too large (for me : it can be your style), neck too (or misplaced), and the hair too "simple". The fact is, I can't recognize Thea. BTW, what is the dragon hing on her shoulder ?

Keep working, Phantasy Star 3 has te best chara-design in my opinion !

You know, I'm liking that idea. A set of playing cards with PS characters... It'd be a damn weird thing to play using something like that... Still, definitely cool...

Valid points. Bear in mind that I drew this without having any reference to look at (i.e. I was dependent on my memory of how her hair looked). It doesn't help that I didn't have any colored pencils to make her hair green and thus a little more recognizable.

The Dragon thing is her slicer. It's an homage to an old Shaw Brothers kung fu film called The Dragon Missile, a film about a killer whose weapon of choice is a boomerang with a dragon sculpted on it that he uses to decapitate people (naturally).

Ok. But what about her slicer ? Does it fly ? You should draw her hand hanging it, no ?

Here I uploaded your pic to Imageshack, to be visible :


Here is a pic of Thea, because actually (and sadly) it is rare on the net :

(Thanks for whose put musics/remixes on Youtube with portraits slideshow)

Well, it was more of a picture embellishment more than anything else, so that's why I didn't draw her holding it.

I had a crush on Thea when I was a little kid X_X
