Messing in fashion

[TsunamiBye]

In that case, I'll wait until you have time to give the criticism to help me on Kasai and Claudas. Suzume as well, but not until I get a new idea for her.

 

[TsunamiBye]

I donated 3 customs. 2 for Yoshimitsu and 1 for Leixia. However the main course is anything but Kasai(taking a break from him.

For now here's Deming with only one change. The priest hood has a sticker.

 

[TsunamiBye]

Now the evolution of scrap with Suzume Takahashi.

Long silky black hair with no armor.

Spoiler

Long hair trimmed added a breastplate.

Spoiler

Short hair, circlet added, armored boots added.

Spoiler

The days of the typical cute girly face is over.

Suzume Takahashi is now cursed...

Cursed to never be able to wear any girly clothes again. Particularly ones that expose her legs and such. She now has to dress conservatively. The story of why? Herp derp she gets defeated in a battle and is kidnapped and is made into a lab rat.

Someone casts a spell that supposedly changes her into a monkey, but Deming saves her before that could happen and now he trains her to be stronger. Suzume is still an airhead, fashion freak and all, but she now has new problems: Her hormones(especially when aroused by an attractive man) are now intensified.

Meaning she's a lot more horny than she looks. She also eats a lot voraciously like a beast than before when she ate like a lady. There are other abnormal traits she inherits from teh monkey spell, but she's still the same cutesy lass who seeks help from Deming.

Design inspirations for Suzume Takahashi the cutesy monkey lass.....

And that's it for today.

 

[TsunamiBye]

For only today, Horus gets a small update. When someone said he looks kind of fat, I thought fix his body since I'm a perfectionist. Egpytians are lean. Not super bulky built. Will update other originals(that I deem worthy) another time.

Spoiler

Now to send you all on a wild goose chase.

Contest Challenge: Pokemon Gijinkas
Official 1P/2P Recolours
The Custom Leixia Thread
The Custom Natsu and Taki thread!
Holiday CAS

First link sends you to see Leixia dressed like Cinccino and some derp Gyarados.
Second, to see the Yoshi edit I use a lot.
Third, is me spoiling Leixia rotten.
Fourth, is a small drop off of Natsu.
Finally, some Halloween costumes for Yoshimitsu, Raphael, and Viola. I'll post Yoshi and Raphael in their Soul Arenas(The one in the CAS forums not the legit tourney ones) later. Potential to improve them. Viola? That's a scrapped idea for now.

Very good creations. Deming's hat is cool and Suzume is especially good. The goddess feather brooches are both pretty and monkey-like. Clever how you painted painted her black to emulate fur. You also tastefully carried that fur motif to the shoulders, gloves, and feet. The flash of white for the shirt is also quite becoming. Both of these creations are a bit too brown for my tastes though. I generally check to see I have 4 kinds of color: light saturated, light unsaturated, dark saturated, and dark unsaturated. Anything to break the monochrome. I think I've seen him before, but Horus is looking good as ever. The sticker + pattern on the skirt is very cool. The makeup and beard also add a lot of character. Lots of bright, contrasting colors too. Best of all, he's Egyptian from top to bottom. I hope you feature him in your comics sometime. Oh shit, looking back in your thread, Mizu and Kasai are really interesting. Perhaps I'll get to a review for them later.

Brown is starting to be on my customs a lot. Like the typical Black, when mixed it brings out appeal. Atm, I'm not sure what colors should I change for Deming and Suzume. However, any suggestions would be appreciated. Not to mention would you care to elucidate what I highlighted in red with some advice, examples and such?


Deming I still will change. I'm contemplating whether he should have a wise Chinese beard or not? I'm trying to make him like Gen of Street Fighter mixed with LuBu of Dynasty Warriors now.

Suzume, I've changed her pink cloth into Teal(which I didn't post). I might have to make changes to her as well, but overall I'm pleased with her.

Atm, I'm pondering how to make a convincing African voodoo warrior, better flamboyant disco warrior, and perhaps more.

Wait, what did you highlight in red?

 

[TsunamiBye]

Whoops, forgot to do that. Edited for your convenience.

 

[brucege]

Looking at him now, his colors are a bit too dark and under-saturated. That means you should add some bright (as in light/dark, i.e. the third color parameter) and saturated colors to add accent/pop to the design. I plan to reconstruct him in CaS and get back to you on that one.

 

[TsunamiBye]

Looking forward to it.

Today is old stuff fixing. A favorite of mine who will get customized more, Disco Jim. The mascot bigot who unlike Pocky Yoshi(engaged to Akemi Hayashi. The real Pocky Yoshi that is me is single however =p) never gets any lady and it'll stay that way.

The traditional outfit is the zebra frilly shirt, pink pants, and zebra shoes. I welcome any suggestion to improve it though.

The flamboyant outfit with the curtain side is my attempt to be impractical with bling. Though my color scheme is inconsistent, I don't mind correction.

The final one is inspired from

Spoiler

The thing on his head is a barrel that used to have alcohol. I made it with that Koumousou and a pure ring(as a bottom of the barrel. The snake skin with smear stickers to give it a aged look. The sun is just a label like how red bull has a logo of a bull. I'll call it Violent Flare so Disco Jim can flaunt getting drunk from it. The chain is to attach the last source of alcohol.

Hope you like.

Ouka Kimura just gets a little fix-up on her hairstyle on her original outfit. Reason is a samurai lass like her has no time to fix her hair. Hence the horns are strands of hair that is stuck together.

 

[TsunamiBye]

This next one of Ouka is a scrapped idea until I get some suggestions. The general idea is a genderbend of Mitsurugi like the first outfit she has, but more civilized than war-like. The hair is still the same like the first outfit because she's more tomboyish than girly....

 

[TsunamiBye]

The final one is what you'll see Ouka wear when you first meet her in the misfortune comics to be. People will think she's an elegant lady and gentle lady....until you get to know her. She detests being dressed up and offered up as a bride. The reason is the Kimura samurai bloodline is dying. As such, the head of the clan(aka her foster father) decided to use her to keep it alive. The problem is she always flees from such matters.

Ouka is basically like Seong Mi-na. Except Japanese.

Design notes. The kimono design stuff is simple stuff. Used horns and Bow to spiff up the geisha hairstyle. Lipstick to enhance beauty. If you look at the pic with the 9 on it, you'll see an accident that added personality. A sticker that looks like a vein popping.....because she detests arranged marriages...

 

[TsunamiBye]

Fujo was an approach that infuriates me. I'm not sure what to make of her. Just herp derp hunting summoner that exposes skin. I normally don't make things like these, but eh.....

 

[TsunamiBye]

Finally, Suzume Takahashi(gonna rename her a different alias sometime soon). All I did was changed the color and used two "8" stickers to make it look like a pattern. Hope you like.

 

[TsunamiBye]

Even though it's not much, I've been busy and stressed in life. Hopefully, this will hold for now.

 

[VILARCANE]

I put a like for those i genuinely liked.
The variations of Kimuras are very distinctive, elegant, and make use of advanced patterning and stickering techniques (if those words even exist). Everything is coherent in those 3.
The scrapped one is maybe the one that seems the most original and appealing to me, strangely, even though the art direction / theme is not that clear in your head, it is still visually cool.
Suzume's colors i don't dig, but somehow the whole design appeals to me.

Nothing to sweep me off my chair, but really nice new CAS showing the progress you have made since your yoshi 3Ps !

Busy and stressed in life, aren't we all, but think about being a Ronin in medieval Japan, ain't that a bit stressier and less uncomfortable, hehe, be as competitive IRL as you are in game and you'll be fine :)

Your disco jims are really and definitely not my thing, lol, look at my Discos or Rdmunhoz's and do something less lazy than that using the same tech you use on your authentiCAS, bro ! :P
