Got really into CAS a while back and made all kinds of characters and tried to make each one different and uniqye. After seeing the horrors that are the random CAS in versus mode I had to see what other people could do.
Now I'm trying to go back through my characters and improve them and maybe redesign a few that don't quite hit the mark for me. I never really went much into stickers and I've started to dabble after I've seen the work here. I figured I would get advice on designs I have already started adding too, ones I haven't, and even some that I'm generally happy with.
I took some pictures of three of my characters to show kind of how I've made them so far and what I'm looking to improve going forward. Unfortunately I'm on Xbox and these pictures are kind of rushed any future ones I'll try and make a bit better
First off is one of my first characters I made after wanting to really make themed characters. General idea behind her is a princess or noble lady, her style is Viola.
She is the first character I went back after coming here and decided to try and spice up a bit. I added some makeup, used stickers to try and add some more to her coat and used the helmet horn accessories to make that mid stomach detail on her coat. I'm fairly happy with her design now that I made her coat more interesting but who knows maybe you guys see some missed potential? I'm lukewarm on her glove color at the moment and it's hard to tell but her boots are brown not black.
Next is one of the characters I'm having trouble deciding where I woukd add more without cluttering the design. Her style is Ivy and her combat moves almost reminded me of an explore cutting through the bush of a jungle so I made just that.
OK so I'm fairly happy with the feel of her design. I tried to include a few colors without making her too flashy for the utilitarian feel I wanted and I tried to keep from making her a goofy cartoon villain stereotype as well. I'm sure minor details could be added to really complete the look or maybe take some away in one area and emphasize on another instead? What do you guys think?
The final design is in a similar vein as a lot of mine as I really had fun trying to fit armor together in different ways to make different feeling characters with the limited armor sets available. The most I can think of to add to these characters would be to maybe use stickers on ones that have a lot of blank armor but well see. For now I'll show you my mercenary leader character that uses Hilde's style.
So those are some of my designs, if you guys want I can post more as I try and update them or I can just post more of the ones I am somewhat proud of.
If you prefer I use an existing thread and want me to move there please tell me and I'll put my inquiries in the proper place, I didn't go straight to the reviews thread as I'm a bit shy when sharing things I make and wasn't quite ready to submit these for full critical review. Hope you guys like these or have some good tips for how to improve my design eye.
