Can you help me to choose one of this guys?





As you can see... they´re basically the same, just the face changes...  One seems to be a young nazi SS offciel, brave, without scrupuls...

The other seems more sophisticated with the monocle, maybe he´s a prussian gentlemen...

Which do you think could be the best for being the nemesis of the known character of Arizona Scott?

Thanks in advance...
Are you guys ready? Let' s roll!

Totoro

I think the second one fits in better. The monocle does not really fit the SS I think. Both look really great by the way, why do you never make the graphics for my games? ;)

Nacho

He he... I would really like to help everybody with their graphics, if they help me a little bit with the script... but I can´t ^_^, sorry...

Thanks for choosing... and people... go on!  ::)

I say go with the first one because it's better to have characters with personality. Also, I think the face of the second looks too much like that of your hero. If you want to make a clean shaven variation, I'd say go for a face a la Don Knotts.

Both are great, but I'd deffinatley say the second one is a better looking arch-enemy.

Definatelly the first one - he looks like a prat and would loose his temper irratically when his plans are foiled.
Hey! All my awesome trophies dissapeared in the year since I was here last. CONSARN_IT! with an underscore!!! I earned dem tings!! Oh well. Hope your Monkey floats.

The aging officer provides a nice tonal contrast to the young Arizona Scott. It has real appeal in the youth vs. authority figure sense.

I'd say, because of the above, number one is a more interesting choice.

sedriss

I'd have to say number 2.

He looks way more evil.
By the time you read this you've already read it.

MrColossal

number 1, for the reasons stated before

he looks like your main character with a german uniform on in the second one

2nd, but if you really like the first I recommend adding facial hair, he looks kinda like himmler

Nine Toes

I like the first one... he looks more menacing of the two... the second one looks like a guido in a nazi costume.
Watch, I just killed this topic...

Mage

my vote goes for the monocle-wearing one :)
what you could change in my opinion is his skin color... perhaps a little more pale.. that would give him a more evil look.

Neole

The first one - good personality!

Scummbuddy

I kinda think the monocole is a little over the top.. but the more i see it, the least it seems. but if this game had to ship tomorrow, id say go with the second one, so i guess thats my answer.

- No, I mean it's really STUCK. Like adventure-game stuck.

I love the monocle!

The first one all the way!

Kind of reminds me of Colonel Klink from Hogan's Heros with that.

It just doesn't get more Nazi than Col. Klink!!

I like the first sprite, but I fear that monacle has a comedic quality to it.  Can we see that same face without the monacle obscuring it?

Meowster

Love them...Hee hee I bet this thread has confused you, huh? It's about half-half for both of them.

I vote for 1.5. Number 2, except with a monocle. But the monocle for number 1 looks like a bulging eye.

Las Naranjas

The monocle looks absurd rather than genuinely threatening. But if that fits with the theme of the game, all is good.

I´ve finally choosen the monocle guy, with a more pale skin and a different moustache and white hair... As some people said, the "young" version looked too similar to the original Arizona Scott... To see the final result take a look here:
