Title: I can't decide?
Post by: Icey on Sat 09/04/2011 23:49:10
I have a character to make however I can't decide on the design.

I just can't really choose one. the left will take a bit longer to make however it's cooler then the one on the right. The one on the right is easier to make however it is rather plainer then the one on the left.

Make him look exactly like this.

And if you haven't picked a name for him yet, how about "Bidus"?

What's the character's personality? That usually shapes their designs, and we got two conflicting ones here.

You've got to design the character around the character, not around Tetsuya Nomura's designs.

the one on the left's outfit symbolizes that he wears clothes from the modern time with a small twist of tetsuya style.

the one on the right's outfit symbolizes that he is a very wealthy prince but sorta wants to be a normal person.

Why not have elements of both? Put them together in a fusion.

Why not be totally crazy and make a 3rd one?

You have decided already, you prefer the one on the left. All you're asking from us is to give you an alibi for choosing the easy way out. Stand by your decision, instead of providing an alternative that isn't really what you want anyway, why don't you work on the left-hand guy and see if you can simplify the artwork to make it less time consuming to animate?

It already takes two to make one of them, and they have different powers.

Also I got it.

I plan to use them as different jobs with set powers. You can chose from freelancer or Dark Kinght.
