Alright, for a while I was thinking about making my own lil' creation thread, but I was too lazy to take all the screenshots, create the thread, blah, blah. Well, now I finally did it. As if there weren't enough CaS threads on 8wr...

I love creation in Soul Calibur, and if SCV didn't have creation, I wouldn't play it at all. But anyway, I have created over 200 characters already, so I'll select some of what I think are the best ones. Since there's only 50 slots, I had a few characters that I deleted, didn't screenshot and regret it now.

I do mostly original creations, and you'll see a clear pattern in them. I use a lot of white, gold/bronze and pink colors, and most of my creations are girls. But you'll also see some characters from other games, for example Final Fantasy, because that's my favorite series ever.

Also, to anybody viewing this, please tell me what you think :)

That's all for now, I'll be adding more someday. Lemme know what you think!
 
It's about time you made a thread. As fukou says, the stormtrooper is amazing for its creativity. The Final Fantasy Characters are on point save for Tifa of Advent Children and Sephiroth.

Everything else is you're experimenting to get strong originals. When it comes to that, always consider their identity with a lot of grain of salt. A lot of your customs scream anime females destined for greatness, but the coherence is where people will lose/forget them over time. There's no harm utilizing google to make cookie cut ideas on what female knights wear for instance.

I know anime influenced games of today has a tendency to mislead people into thinking you can wear anything. However, make sure to keep yourself in check to not just spam half baked ideas. Example: blond animu chicks that are Japanese. Look at Natsu or Setsuka of Soul Calibur for instance. They have ideas stringed together to show some coherence. Always take your time. Art requires patience and focus, lest you'll "derp out" due to frustration. Trust me, I used to fanservice(it's overratted), slap on cool color on half baked outfit CAS, etc. Breaks is key at times.

Strongest CAS I could see potential are these two

The first one. My impression is this: Chinese lady wearing Japanese attire, but this lotus flower has yet to bloom in Japanese territory. I don't mean to brag, but Asian animu fashion is something I specialize in. I could see her having a Chinese themed Kimono, a ripped design from female Dynasty Warriors, or something very oriental and original. She looks cute and graceful, so avoid fanservice altogether.

The second one. My impression is this: Generic female knight. All she needs is 2-3 color scheme, armor modifications to a theme, a theme, and a country influence and she's good to go. I could see her as some lackey to Hilde, a female anime knight in fire emblem, or some original animu knightish. Also steer clear of fanservice, but removing helmet to show a cute face is okay.



Hope this helps.

*sigh* Okay, I'll just mention the creations you've presented that I either liked or give credit to. I guess later I'll post in my creations via your format, Draggonnfs. There are quite a bit.
Here it goes:

I have very few creations. My Creations aren't even nearly as intricate as yours, but on the other hand, I still do like designing nevertheless. Cool work. :sc4hil1:
 
Thanks :3 BTW, sorry to anyone viewing this on slower connection or a slow device, I know it can take ages to load when I posted all of this in one post and it's on one page.
 
The first words that came to my mind were...."Very impressive".
You seem to have a knack for this sort of thing.
And I also liked Yuna from FFX. Along with Yuna, I like Auron and Lulu too(from FFX).

How in Spira did I not think about Auron?! Great idea, I think I'll try to do him in SCV CAS, but it'll be hard. In my opinion Auron was a better character than Tidus, but he wouldn't fit as a main character.
 
I think that Auron would be easy to make from Siegfried's style in SCV CAS. I'm actually gonna try it out when I get time.
 
Heyy, very nice stuff indeed!
This, of course, inspires me to post more CAS myself XD.
Anyway, congratulations and keep posting.
PS: The Stormtrooper was excellent!

SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_8.png
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_9.png
SOULCALIBUR Ⅴ_10.png
 
Also I wanna say, that a few of these creations were done just to use some DLCs for at least SOMETHING, for example Auron is wearing Patroklos' trousers, which I'd never use otherwise, and H.P. (FUCKING!) Baxxter is wearing the Student clothes DLC.
 
Another thing I must say, some of the creation screenshots look terrible compared to what it actually looks on my TV, because on my TV I have contrast set on max, and brightness quite low, also quite high saturation, and here it appears that Auron has really light grey hair, when on my TV it's very dark grey. Oh well...
 
The "Casual" Siegfried was cool. I like the way she has on an emblem for her motif.
Your Auron looks sweeeet. His red jacket has what looks like leather patches on the shoulders and the little gourd on his side was a nice touch. The little decoration on his cuffs give things some detail while his footwear doesn't clash with everything else he's wearing.

EDIT: Funny, my last picture, the Style - Raphael (1p) also has a scar on his face and is wearing glasses.

I used a lot of the emblems on my early creations that I deleted already, I got tired of them.
 
Also, can someone tell me how the hell do I split the thread into pages? Because this page is extremely long and takes geological times to load.
 
Alright, haven't posted anything in a while, because I'm too lazy to drag my ass and my PS3 to the HDTV to take proper screenshots. But, here we go.

I went back to using patterns a lot, which I used to do a lot, but that was before I even joined 8WR. So, most of the following creations will be very similiar. I really just copied the same character and just changed the pattern, color scheme or other minor things. I also began to use the stickers to "create new equipment".
