A Final Fantasy VIII Remake Could Be a Beautiful Thing

Just look at it. This fan art is based on Final Fantasy VIIIā€˜s Balamb Garden, and it not only looks fantastic, but also screams HD remake for FFVIII

This was created by Scott Honeycutt, a 3D environmental artist—and a talented one at that. These images have been floating around Japanese web forums, impressing Final Fantasy fans for good reason.

Honeycutt says, ā€œModels, UVs and baking in 3ds Max, textures made with Photoshop and Quixel suite, render and materials in Unreal [Engine] 4. This is a game environment art portfolio piece made of low poly models with normal maps applied, and it uses a physically based rendering setup with metallic and roughness values.ā€
