Final Fantasy Tactics: Perler

My number one favorite video game? Final Fantasy Tactics. It was a fun thing that C and I had in common when we first met.
I've begun to explore the world of perler fusion beads and all the fun nerdtastic video game patterns that are out there. Of course I had to make sure I made some characters from my favorite game!
Clockwise from left: Ultima, Ramza, Orlandeau, Cloud, Lancer, Thief, Ninja


All of these will be mounted and hung with the exception of the Lancer, which is a birthday gift for a friend.
All of the single job class specific ones were pretty straight forward. I was able to find patterns for the Thief and Ninja, but the Lancer I had to come up with the colors and such on my own using a sprite graphic. Getting the shading just right was difficult but turned out well in the end.


Ramza is wearing his Chapter One outfit. Also, I really thought Ramza was a girl when I first started playing.


Close ups of Cloud and Orlandeau:
Last we have Ultima, the giant piece. She took up five boards and is very fragile. I worked from a pattern for her and it took me quite a while!! She definitely needs to be mounted before hanging.


Now that I have worked with sprite graphics and have a better handle on it, I plan on creating several more characters/job classes in both genders.
