Intriguing CAS noregrets. There's some tweaking to be made, but the potential is there. Particularly, Ulric has my attention. Merely because it strikes Pocky Yoshi more silly than the rest. That's not to say the rest of thine customs are not as great. Far from it. The only nitpick is they need a direction.

For now, Pocky Yoshi will critique the ones that intrigue him.

Violet for instance, the patterns on her skirt is "very random slap on". Just try to get the bottom to match the top. While patterns help at times, it's also a double edged sword. Too much patterns is like too much make-up. The shoes and socks also feel "very random slap on".

My guess is thou is trying to be different but kinda went a little too far overall. Though that's to be respected, but remember: certain CAS parts are double edged swords. Some compliment each other, some really don't.

Don't take this as discouragement. Pocky Yoshi sees potential in thee.
 
I really like Ulric. The effort put into his pants looks great, and his two-toned chainmail is really striking and different.
I like Earl Grey too--both in name, and in color choice and the work on his coat.

I'm confused about Nestor...samurai/alien/robot/knight with a lynx theme and lots of glowing cyan? He just has too much going on.
Silver is mildly interesting. Fulvous is a very commonplace design, I have seen that mix of parts on multiple occasions, though the pattern you added to the head and torso look good. Why not apply that pattern to the rest of the bone armor?

Nothing else really stands out to me, other than Ruby's gauntlet, but I think I gave you kudos on that idea on gamefaqs.

Another tip about posting, because I used to post the same way you are:
You may want to start cropping and putting together all images of a single character into one image, and save it as a .jpg. When I began posting, I did it the same way as you--straight files from the PS3, each screenshot was its own file. This is a bad idea, the .png files are huuuge, and it makes it easier to view if you combine all of the shots into a single image. If you don't pay for photobucket, unless you change how you post images, you will HAVE to (I've been buying premium photobucket ever since I started posting here, because my bandwidth exceeded very quickly. Still in the process of trying to merge images together so I can eliminate the 8-files-per-character syndrome)

Thanks for the response. Nestor is a problem. I was so desperate to use the Oathbearer's raiment (because I paid for it lol).
He is one of characters that I changing right now.

I will look into the photos as well.
 
Oops, I said Nestor twice. When I said "Nestor is a commonplace design" and the rest of the paragraph following, I meant Fulvous
 
You have clearly had some soild sucess with patterns on maxim size. Conerning Jasmine specifically, it had never occured to me to use a pattern on the underside of anything (in her case, the sooth sayers hood), and I really like it.
 
Well I took some feedback and made some tweaks to certain characters.

Here are some new character as well as some tweaked ones.

A Dark Knight? There really wasn't much that I could do with this character. It was a leftover design from a while back.

A Snake woman. Let's call her Cobra since I can't come up with names. It's another design that I had for a while.

I like the general idea of them, however I think the colouring is a bit off, and rose's undergarments dont really work, thats just my opinion, otherwise nice

It was either the bustier or the mini dress. I went with the bustier because it has more color slots and I have already hit the sticker limit.

I understand, however if I were to do it #~(not saying my way is right jsut preference) I would have gone for a more bra styled undergarment, taken away one of the rose, had other one larger, and used last sticker to either improve the bra, or used bustier and used something like wings, sounds odd , but it tends to work
 
Changed Nestor's hip equipment and the color of his pants

Changed Lycus' "cybernetic eye", added some face paint, removed vest, added objects to make him look like more of a cyborg.

Back with some new readjustments and new characters. I think I will make a new thread in the future posting some background info on each of them. Please give feedback.

First a new character, Ino. Not my personal favorite, but I kept her because her thumbnail pic is amazing.

Made some new adjustments on Lycus. Long story short, I saw the Avengers and was really inspired by Iron Man

Getting better, every update your characters get better... but plz, paint Rose's blue belt with a little bit darker colour XD
Oh and I'm preety sure that if you paint Nestor's samurai belt borders with the same green colour you used in his upper body, he'll look even better than he looks. Also, Misery was better before you added the stripes in his pants, I suggest you take them off.
I like Lycus too, he is better than never in the last update.


I loved your idea of a Bone Dragon Warrior... I'm goint to steal the idea and make my own design =)

I never realized how light Rose's belt was since I lower the brightness on my TV. I will change it. I guess Misery's pattern was a little random. I felt that I needed to add something since he would have looked "bland". I will also look into Nestor's belt. I think you are on to something.

Thanks for the response. Also on another note, you might want to avoid doing a dragon bone knight. You can't add stickers to many of the parts I used (especially the head), so it will be difficult to be creative.
 
I like challenges ;)
And it's a .. bone =p no need for stickers, maybe a pattern, but some times you have to go simple
 
The DLC is decent this time around so I recreated some of my characters. It gave me some new ideas. I also added some alts for existing ones. Nothing is final obviously.

Ruby. I felt this alt was kind of natural for her because of the arm.
