NikkiSiixx Artwork: Super Mario & Princess Peach's First Kiss


I recycled some white boards that came from used x-ray boxes and then I turned them into my canvas'. I had fun painting this one. Luckily I had all the right colors to match the characters, perfectly! Very proud of my work.


I used Acrylic Paint for the colors, and the black was made with permanent marker. Which gives it a clean look. Yup it took all these colors to finish up the artwork. Too cute!

Classics: Final Fantasy VII (1997)


Classics are games that will never be forgotten. The storyline was so intriguing it left us talking about years after. I consider Final Fantasy VII to be one of them. First appearing on the Playstation back In 1997. Created by Square (Square Enix). This was the first time any one has played a game with so much storyline it consisted of three CDs to finish it. Yup! I should know I have a copy of the original greatest hits with full case and booklet.

If you haven't noticed yet I am a huge fan of RPG's (Role Playing Games). These games are based on characters journeys or conquest to far away places, in order to accomplish a goal or saving someone else's life. They're filled with intense storylines and repetitive battle formats such as ATB Active Time Battle. When its your time to battle, you will take turns. Either you or your opponent go first. Depending on how many characters you have on you're team, you have a limit of three characters per turn. You must remain with them for the entire battle, until you defeat the enemy or die dying.

The whole story is based on Cloud Strife. He is a mercenary who claims to be apart of Soldier, which he was the 1st class member. Cloud mets a anti-Shinra rebel group called Avalanche which was created to prevent Shinra (A company that drains the life of the planet to use as an energy source) from destroying their world. Through their journey to fight against this company and to save the world an old alias of Cloud's has came back to finish off the entire world and that person is Sephiroth.

I've dedicated numerous hours to possibly accumulated months worth to even a year to finish a game. That's why I can truly consider myself a gamer.

Fan Art: Dead Fantasy I & II




I just came across these two videos while I was searching for new content for my site. Dead Fantasy is a series of modified fight scenes from some of your favorite Square Enix characters. I didn't want to just aim on Final Fantasy characters because there's a few characters that are not on that particular series. There's more parts to Dead Fantasy but I just wanted to share with you the first to episodes.

What a great way to show your fan appreciation through these custom made video game fight scenes. Love It! I'm actually watching the rest of the episodes while I write this post.

Trailer: L.A. Noire


LAPD detective Phelps is thrown headfirst into a city drowning in its own success. Corruption is spreading, the drug trade is exploding, and murder rates are at it's all-time high. During the game you need to fight to climb the ranks and do what's right to protect yourself and get the case solved, Phelps must unravel the truth behind a string of arson attacks, racketeering conspiracies and brutal murders, battling the L.A. underworld and even members of his own department to uncover a secret that could shake the city to its rotten core.

GameInformer Rated this game an 8.5 out of 10.

By viewing other videos of game play I noticed that this game has influences from Grand Theft Auto series and Heavy Rain, but together. Which I think it's a great mix to make a perfect drama game based on crime and corruption.

Fan Art: Super Mario & Luigi


Creator: Unknown
The way this portrait was created and thought though was so realistic to the characters and their surroundings. Mario and Luigi look too real!
