Soul crystals, often called job stones within the FFXIV community, are considered deeply personal for players, particularly for their Warrior of Light’s main class. The resin crafters who related their experiences with casting soul crystals for the XIV community emphasized the joy in creating such unique works of art for players who feel so deeply for them.
The heart that Bell infuses into her art leaps has likewise captured the hearts of the FFXIV community, so it was my great pleasure to talk with her about her artistic journey that led her to bringing XIV's most beloved characters to life in her work.
In Final Fantasy XIV, we witness Warriors of Light from thousands of players' imaginations, fight, stumble, get up, and grow into heroes. For Surfacage, FFXIV was an open invitation to chronicle their Warrior of Light's story in comic form - both serious and silly - and I was delighted to find out more about their artistic journey through Final Fantasy XIV.
