Crazily enough, this picture just came up for discussion on n-g.com last week. It is Shinkiro, done back in '95, about a month after the release of FF3. It's an illustration from the story of Geese Howard, and in fact, that is a young Geese in the middle there. This picture appears in "SNK Illustrations" (Gamest Mook vol. 39), page 61.
From my poor Japanese, all I can make out from Shinkiro's comments is that the guy on the bottom-left (in the Judo gi) is Jubei Yamada, believe it or not. From that, I'm assuming the guy on the bottom-right (hands clasped in front of face) must be Tung. Poor bastard never had hair...
No idea who the others are...I'm especially curious about the nun. Geese's mother...?
edit: Oh yeah...and you're right, it is marker (and colored ink).
