Title Rainbow Shield

Designer Cat-karikari

Comment from the Designer I thought about doing a lot of different things, but decided keeping it simple would be best!(*'-')
Judge's Comment This design is quite simple, yet fits incredibly well with the image of FINAL FANTASY XI. The fact that it was designed after Vana’diel’s eight elements makes it exceptionally easy to think of possible attributes for it.

The concept behind this particular design is vastly different from that of the grand prize winner, but is still a wonderful piece that rivals it in every way.

Title Final Eternal Phoenix XI

Designer Shiki

Comment from the Designer I designed the layout and phoenix emblem (it's a bit small because it got squished T-T) based on the letters "FFXI."
Judge's Comment There is no doubt that the "XI" on this shield symbolizes both FINAL FANTASY XI and the 11th Vana'versary. By changing the base color to blue or green, we could also create home nation-specific versions.

The asymmetrical nature of the design is also very nice.
