This is nice art....but I find it a bit taistless, there is porn and clean art.....but when they have things like this that is boarderline porn -.- I find it a bit taistless, but other then that they are very well drawn pictures ^.^

I am a bit odd when it comes to things like this... I love porn...and I love good art, but sometimes I get picky :p

Eh, yeah, that's all considered Ecchi, borderline hentai, but not completely out of line (but agree with Admins, definitely NWS :oops: ). Still, that RDM is about the best portrayal of any Elvaan I've seen. They made her manage to look adorably cute. The RNG is uber-cute tho, cuz she's Mithra. ^^

I've seen the website of the guy who drew those. Not cause I was looking for porn, oh now, I'm teh innocence.... Anyways, yeah, what's posted there is pretty much all of the FFXI stuff he's done. There was maybe one or two more. He does request stuff I think, and maybe has a few manga's out as well. Not FFXI manga's. I'll do a bit of searching, see if I can find it.

Whm ftw. Still looking for the main site.

Edit: No luck. Artist's name is Gantz or something, that was the best I could do.

Your link got nixed on the other end Evi. And I think i've got all of these images on my HD. Including the WHM. ^^;

Look up the word Blueff possibly in your searches, a friend of mine handed over copies of the original copies from where they were saved, and they have the word Blueff in the save name, so that might have something to do with it. No guarantee tho. ^^;

Umm... no porn is porn. Erotic art is art :P There is a difference if but a very small one.

As for Ecchi and Hentai, Hentai is blatent porn where Ecchi is more suggestive. Ecchi gets shown on TV and hentai only makes it to OAVs :P
Ever seen an anime called "Sakura Diaries"? Very ecchi but at the same time doesn't show anything.
Animes these days are getting away with more and more, ecchi going from subtle suggestiveness to pretty blatent. Watch an anime called "Mouse" and you'll see what I mean :lol:

By the way... what's "NWS"? :lol:

I beleive "NWS" stands for Not Work Safe. MithraPride is one of the few FFXI websites that can usually be accessed from someone at work. And because of this in makes sense to avoid anything that is Not Work Safe, I.E. Suggestive Art, Porn, etc.

Damn that mithra is sexy, but he gave her Kote which I totally disagree with for NIN :P
That Elvaan has to be female as male pants don't show skin but she has pretty broad shoulders :lol:

Its all art. The difference between Porn and erotic art is in the eye of the beholder. Some "Christians" think anything with nudity is Porn, like Michealangleo's David or Playboy. There is no hard dividing line, like the feather or the whole chicken, or our courts would have built laws around it.

The Elvaan are all D cup girls, but thanks to their overly broad shoulders, you hardly ever notice it.

Why does it have to be an Elvaan Drg. >.>; Why not Mithra?

Because it's a Mithran Ninja and there's one member of each race.

We're not overly "well known" as DRGs, dunno why :P the DRG pic in the manual is of an Elvaan, the Fomor DRG is a Hume err... *shrug* :P

I disagree, the difference is in the intention of the "artist" (I use the term broadly). Where erotic art is meant to be viewed in an art gallery for people to "admire the brush strokes" porn is meant to be viewed in someone's room for the purpose of a "quick one off the wrist". :P
Porn makers will still call themselves "artists" though but that's only to make themselves feel better about what they do :P hehe :lol:

Intent of the artist has to be the hardest thing to prove in court. And it HAS been tried.

There is viewer's intent too. Do you think no one has gotten a "quick one off the wrist" to the Mona Lisa? David? Heck, there are probably pervos who think Picasso's "Nude Decending a Staircase" is porn.

And then there is the publicist's intent. :lol: I am serious here, look up the history of a little peice known as "September Morn".

Hmm...in FFXI story, King Ranparre is a DRG :wink: So, no wonder an Elvaan are often subject to be a DRG. :)

I think actually Ranparre was the Dragon King, and he had a special order of Dragon Knights directly under his command. He himself was no dragoon, if I am remembering right.

not to forget the mithran dragoon you see getting ready to fight tiamat during one quest in a cut scene.... I think it was one of the quests from the fishing guild in windurst..

Yes but intent of the "viewer" may not have anything to do with what the artist intended. I'm sure Michaelangelo would have been pissed if he saw someone jerking off to his David :lol:

The "artist" definately intended his/her "art" to be one thing or another, whether he/she comes out and declares it is another matter.

If you want to draw comparisons to anime/manga; erotic art is ecchi (as it's mostly suggestive) and porn is hentai (because it's porn :P).

Then again it's rediculous what crap gets called as "art" these days. Like a dead horse hanging from the ceiling, yes that's definately great artwork there :x

Ya...I guess I've misinterpreted on this...

I've gone to read about King Ranparre and yes, he's the Dragon King.

Yet..I'm not quite sure on this, so I'll go see my cutscene in FFXI again later since I saw a phrase during my DRG Flag quest quite a long time ago.

By the way...here is the information about King Ranparre.

See Vana'diel TribuneII Volume 7

That site! =^_^=

Yes, I asked Yukira about her avatar and she showed me that site! It's great! I'm totally changing the eye color on the blond mithra and calling it my Althaia. =^_^=
