Part of my DA project I mentioned: Monster Tactics 2.0. Characters designed to look like FFTA characters, each with four classes. An actual game staring the monsters is not currently planned, unfortunately.

Ether's are going to be the token "Chubby" race of the series. Actually, I do kind of find it odd that despite having a personal preference that I actually do manage to add variety to my designs. Strong, chubby characters like this are my favorite, but this is actually the first one of that kind of body type that I have made.

Like some of my other designs, I'm trying not only to revamp the designs, but to give them more originality other than simply "anthropomorphic animals." Ether was one of those offenders. Aside from giving it legs, I tried as well to give it hair made of ice, something I haven't personally seen on a penguin character, but if it's been done, let me know.

Edit: Before I draw the others, I should probably work on this one a bit more. I drew the cavalier by memory and there are plenty of things I forgot to add.
