I swear........these are some of the most refreshing designs I have ever seen in a long time. Eeck,they might even rival or surpass GGX's(although I-No,Jam and Slayer still are bad-ass).

Well,already,I have favorites. Alice and Cassandra being the top! My other favorites include Pepe,Sonia,Oni(YEAH! He looks so cool!

),Radel and Lynn.

The game itself seems a little too bland,for now. The stages aren't that great. But,art helps make a great game. And this game definitley has it.

Now,let's see when it will be released.

Looking forward to this!

I showed the designs to a friend of mine early to day, the ones we made fun of the most where Alice and Casandra...

What the Hell is up with 'Alice in Wonderland' these days? Resident Evil ripped it off with the names Alice, Looking Glass House, and Red Queen... American McGee's Alice is a continuation of it... My School's 'costume canival' featured it as theme along with Lord of the Rings and two girls who liked Chun-Li and Mai... and now Alice in RoD! She's a very vannial version of Alice at that, I liked Bloody Roar's take a lot better... Also to all movie makers/game designers/figure drawing event co-ordinators/etc.: ALICE IN WONDERLAND IS NOT THAT GOOD A STORY!!! STOP REFERENCING IT!!!

As far as Casandra goes... am I the only one distrubt her ass is visible between her legs? that's not natural... but of course T.E. you probably just like the costume, which is just stupid... you know with Christie's ending and Raiden's little jog before he gets the HF Blade I see no reason why people keep making such stupid costumes instead of just making the girl naked... it gets their point across just the same and spairs everyone from needing to see such awful costume designs...

hmmmm, I've already writen a lot, I'll just go for a full character run down now....

Billy: Looks pretty Generic as far as clothes go... but the hair is cool, and he doesn't look exactly like Billy so he's pretty good.

It's just an artistic license, you won't say that manga artists don't know about anatomy because they draw big eyes and small noses...

I won't because it's not true... if someone understands how to draw a realistic human face (or at least understands the basic proportions of a human face) it can be distorted to have larger eyes or a smaller nose and it will look some what normal. You'll see in both manga and even something as silly as Looney Toons designs eyes are still started at the face's mid line and the nose always falls between the eyes and the mouth (which is normally mid way between the chin and the brow line)

big eyes and small noses aren't the same as an ass visible from the front... that's more like a nose and eyes being partly visible from a total back view of the head

You really dont have to follow proportions for people to like characters. Disproportion in anime/manga/comic style artworks are very common, and i dont really find a problem with that as long as they have their charm.

Now that girl with the tiny dress, why have you never complained about other characters like Mai? i wonder how she manages to hold the dress. How about batman? his clothing is pretty unrealistic

Remember you can draw a perfect human figure, but sometimes people prefer disproportioned characters when it comes to this kind of media. Plus this is what is so nice about illustrating, you dont have to follow rules of real life in this kind of design.

I really dont like the character that much, it was more regarding realistic effects/proportion issues. Its
just the way it works nowadays.

You can do the most accurate picture, but i seen several times where the most unrealist/unaccurate/exaggerated drawing wins over accuracy. It's just the taste of the people.

I've done exactly the same thing, and I have seen people like that. The reason you don't normally see it, is because it's rare for you to get a lower camera view like you're getting of Cassandra when you're looking at people normally at head hight. She's not sagging at all, she's just got large hips.

1)To me the character designs are very interesting although some of them are...iffy to say the least.

2)Baghead's review is one of the most harsh character design reviews I have seen in a LONG time...but it was funny. Especially the lyrics from the Disney DDR game...lol.

3)Cassandra does NOT have a sagging ass! My ex-girlfriend had a body somewhat like hers...especially with THAT feature and it's NOT a sagging ass. Pornstars have bodies like that and they don't have a saggy ass(unless it's that amatuer crap)If you look at the designs of many character designs such as Chun Li, Mai, Angel, June, Cammy(Delta Red version at least) had a "sagging ass" like that. Heck as arguably the biggest hentai watcher among all of you even the drawings there have those "sagging asses"...I sure as heck wished more women had "sagging asses"

Was I really that harsh? I know I made fun of all of them but I gave more A,B,C's and then D's and F's... I kid because I love!

anyway back to the subject at hand... as I said to Onslaught if the arguement is Casandra is built like a porn star, her ass is fine. But if she's suppost to look normal then she's totally out of proportion. The picture of her is NOT from a below the belt camera angel yet her ass is clearly depected as such. I'll draw a side and back view based on her proportions to prove my point if anyone wants as well...

There is a fine like between "artistic license" and "flat out wrong". We've all seen fan art (of Americanized anime normally) where the arms are too short, the legs to long, heads the wrong shape, eyes are off, bodies bend the wrong way, muscles are misshapen of whear none exisit, etc.... these register as "wrong" in our minds because why know what basic anatomy looks like and these don't match up.... if you know proportion and anatomy you can embelish and change such and it will register as "right", Zangief might be given extra muscles but he has the ones that should be visible there (actually Michealangelo used to draw TONS of extra muscles into drawings because he loved the forms it gave him, but he understood anatomy enough so these look right.)

The pubic synthsis is the midline of the body, this lines up roughly with the back of buttocks, the crouch area of a normal human sits slightly below the synthsis. It's entirely possible for ones crouch to be visible from a standing level back view, but rare for the opposite. And if Casandra falls into the rare exception, her ass is sagging far too much for it to logically make sense.

I just got a good look at the designs, and all I have to say is...well...look at the title of this post.

Mr. Jones just may steal the title of "Worst Black Stereotype ever" from Lucky Glauber. I've tried to look at him from a comedic point of view, and I've even tried looking at him from a non-stereotyped point of view, but any way that I look at him, he's just a stupid character. Kung fu-nky? That's one of the stupidest things I've ever heard.

That's my two cents, for what its worth.

LOL... I gotta agree with most of Baghead's assertions. Though it's obvious that this artist is going for a sexier style. If you don't like it that's fine.

I can't say I agree about the Sonia/Lilith comparison though; other than the hair it looks nothing like Lilith. To me, her design reminds me a lot more of Nina Williams from T3/TTT with purplish hair. I mean, she's got the vest, the leathery hip-huggers, the high heels... right?

Regarding Cassandra, proportion is one thing but there is also muscular structure to consider... Cassandra is only like that because of the pose, I think. The arch of the back would cause the glutes to flex in that way, making them curve more than usual. I think. It's not exactly the most natural human pose, anyway.

I can't say I agree about the Sonia/Lilith comparison though; other than the hair it looks nothing like Lilith. To me, her design reminds me a lot more of Nina Williams from T3/TTT with purplish hair. I mean, she's got the vest, the leathery hip-huggers, the high heels... right?

The Lilith thing was a joke, because she has a purple hair and red clothing. If it sounded mean, sorry... but for the record. Any Purple Haired Girl=Extremely Kick Ass.

quote:
The arch of the back would cause the glutes to flex in that way, making them curve more than usual. I think. It's not exactly the most natural human pose, anyway.

The glutes actually wouldn't bend like that because the Hamstrings and Adductors are in the way. But hell, I didn't draw her so why should I care if her glutes bend weird.

Just as a change of topic, which characters do people think look the coolest? ^_^
I'll probably use Mr. Jones and Kang, but as for ladies... Ha ha ha, I think Lynn and Pupa are the most attractive, but that's just my taste. ^_^

Male characters: Elias and Jimmy
Female characters: Sonia and Lynn (and if she does represent the Chessure Cat, Annie... if not, forget it)

The pubic synthsis is the midline of the body, this lines up roughly with the back of buttocks, the crouch area of a normal human sits slightly below the synthsis. It's entirely possible for ones crouch to be visible from a standing level back view, but rare for the opposite. And if Casandra falls into the rare exception, her ass is sagging far too much for it to logically make sense.

Actually that's a bit wrong. The pubic symphisis lines up with the coccyx, which is not the end of the glutes (the glutes visually extend down past the pelvic region, attaching to the lateral side of the femur). Women tend to have the pubic symphisis line up directly with the coccyx with men being slightly lower (symphisis to coccyx). If you want, you can trace the general perspective of the Cassandra pic (check the feet and collarbones) and find that the horizon line is indeed approximately waist height, coupled with the fact that women also have wider spacing on their ischiums (birth canal, anyone?), can easily allow visibility of the posterior from the front. Coccyx !=end of ass.

This occurs on a lot of women, more often than you think. Heck my girlfriend is like this and she definitely doesn't have a sagging ass hehe :)

Why? Because apparently I'm not allowed to say I don't think the form of a picture reads properly. Instead I'm attacked (or what feels like it) and told it's "artistic license" or "the camera is actually from a low angle" or what have you... I DON'T CARE HOW YOU EXPLAIN IT I CREEPS ME OUT, AND SAY WHAT YOU WANT IT ALWAYS WILL!

You know, I'm really sorry I've been such a jerk lately but it's not like the board's atmosphere as really let itself for me to be anything but.

No-one's attacking you at all. You're simply stating your opinion as if it were fact of human anatomy. Just say you hate the way she looks and leave it at that. Nothing wrong with that opinion.

well I might be stating it as such because it's what I've been taught, sorry for my assinine behavior defending such. And even so, you've been taking the opposite stance to make it sound as if Casandra's build is totally normal, which has as much vaility as my arguement.

*sigh* so tired, don't care anymore...

Look man, it's how the guy drew it. If it bothers you that much you should contact him or something.

No one has directly insulted you throughout the duration of this thread. So this negative attitude I'm sensing from you lately is really uncalled for.

Dr Baghead: Sorry if it seemed like it was an attack, didn't mean it to be at all. I just stumbled into this and saw something that I personally have been taught otherwise (by professors and anatomy texts [Bridgman, Simblet, and Gordon for the most]) as well as observed differently than what you were stating as fact, which in my view it wasn't. No attack meant, just clarification and tossing out a counterpoint. :)

Anyways, uh, the character designs are pretty interesting...Some I like, some I'm like "eh..wha?", and most are just all around a-ok. *shrugs* Oh well.

Damn!! I didn't notice that an arguement was going on in this thread.

I hope you've all chilled by now. I'm very familiar with the arguments of anatomy, and they usually tend to become very ugly.

Nevertheless, it's good to see that most of you actually made some good points about the designs- just comes to show how muh the game is anticipated.

Btw, I just realized what Casandra's costume reminded me of.... The Fifth Element, was the movie called?

I got to agree with the main topic of this thread; the desings are awesome and the story is "satisfactory"; that is more than enough for me to play and enjoy the game; despise it's possible "crapyness".

I even enjoyed Ragnagard.
