Yeah, I'm slowly turning into a Shining Force fan. I'm playing the GBA remake of the first game and it's just so awesome!
Anyway, I was checking out a few sprites from the old games from the Genesis/ Mega Drive era and realised how bad the graphics were. I'm not that sensetive to bad graphics, since I'm a huge retro-lover, but when I compared the sprites (top row) to the character portraits (middle row) I just felt that I had to redo them.
So my remade versions of May, Karna and Kazin (from left to right) are the ones on the bottom row. I really like how they turned out, but May became a huge problem, since she is a centaur. Oh well, at least they look prettier ^.^
Shining force and all it's characters belong to SEGA
Yeah there's a few new faces in the remake, but the gameplay is pretty much the same (except for the new card skills)
Yeah, the first games are way better than the newer ones. They should get back to the tactical genre and stop making crappy hack'n slash games :/

Yeah, it's a shame it hasen't got re-released. It is after all a much better game than the first Shining Force. Oh well, there's allways a slight possibility of a DS remake.
Really glad you like them. Having a fan say they look genuine is a real compliment, and makes me think I really succeded with them. Out of curiosity, who is your 2nd fave chracter?

Plus, I hear the remake added in more characters and made it more aimed at teen audiences.
Still, the first was cool.
