Weapon sizes weren't consistant, they scaled with the size of the character, which was ridiculous. So gnomes got stuck with novelty cheese knife versions of all of the weapons. Needless to say, I won't be following their example. Small characters with enormous weapons for the win.Kevin X.

While there should be the stereotypical feminine outfits available for those who so desire to feast their eyes upon it(once more variations and choices are available that is), we don't all need to degrade the image of female hero with such images. These images have simply become "normal" because fantasy adventure was originated by mostly men in a man's world where man could make the women as they personally wanted. But we are now in modern times and the standard female hero does not give a crap about wearing high heels, makeup, or looking glamorous whilst vanquishing the world of evil.Sly Kamauihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08083973547788272508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2370521590278153537.post-86369414363194506652011-10-05T22:27:03.438-04:002011-10-05T22:27:03.438-04:00yeah about the hair style variations between races...yeah about the hair style variations between races was for a certain feature (like in the case I showed, the thingy on the hair). But the rest agree that makes sence to be racial ;)<br /><br />well about the revealing (lol) you know casters just use robes to cover whatever they think its needed not show (wich is relative =P) cause unlike plate, cloth doesn't give you much armor protection, but I needed to give you the least so you can pich the normal and find the mean term you think is doable ;)<br /><br />About the heels, Its a game so that chars need to look good not much realistic (they will conjure fireballs from their hands to fight dragons). Still get your point and there are other aspects that also makes female heroes look good as spoken (breasts, skin showing, hairstyle and eventually (one day) the eyes)<br /><br />keep up the good workGonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2370521590278153537.post-88022346270082105672011-10-05T20:22:53.468-04:002011-10-05T20:22:53.468-04:00@ NinjutsuMaster - We sympathize and plan for a he...@ NinjutsuMaster - We sympathize and plan for a helm toggle like in World of Warcraft and other MMOs, in case anyone really prefers the look of hair over helms. After all, it would really suck to put all of this into hairstyle choices just for them to be covered up right away.<br /><br />The human male's codename is Max! But I'll keep this request in mind in case he gets a significant redesign before release. Either way, these names are just my own codenames and I'm sure players will be able to name them themselves.<br /><br />@ Anonymous (6:34 PM) - I do, but I have trouble finding time to play.<br /><br />@ Sly Kamaui - Hair and helms probably won't play together at all, it'll be one or the other at player choice. I think it would be cool to have tails stick out the back of helms like that, and I intend to experiment with making it happen, but I don't want to make promises.<br /><br />@ Gon - I like the idea of having bits of a style vary between races, but chances are different races will have completely unique hairstyle choices anyway.<br /><br />Cloth and leather armor will definitely be more revealing than plate, but I don't know about making anything quite THAT revealing. On such small units it might wind up looking a little silly.<br /><br />The inclusion of heels is tricky, since there seems to be an equal split on how people feel about those. I agree that there's nothing wrong with a female hero looking good while kicking ass, but I can also agree that strutting around in high heels all the time is a bit unrealistic. I'm planning to experiment with flat-soled boots to see if they don't look too awkward trying to cover up that heel height. I'd much rather keep both options open if I can.<br /><br />@ chillie - Mohawks might be more fitting for a more savage race like the orc, eventually. Multiple braids might not work out because of how small the units are, the detail might just end up as a blob at scale. I'll probably include a single long braid, though.Kevin X.

Because, the ponytail thing you have going on in the sketch there looks cool, but that implies at least one hole in the back of her helmet which never seems like a good idea. :P<br />I don't actually have ideas, just thought I'd add in stuff to consider.<br /><br />And I notice a maybe on the "to heels" part. Personally, I say nay to the heels. It looks awkward with the heavy armor and it would seem such a burden for the female to have so much weight on her while walking around the various terrains in heels, even the shortest and thickest of heels. It will look just as good, and possibly better, if the female character kicks butt in flat bottomed boots.Sly Kamauihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08083973547788272508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2370521590278153537.post-35871576077037333662011-10-04T21:34:21.010-04:002011-10-04T21:34:21.010-04:00I know this doesn't have to do with art but do...I know this doesn't have to do with art but do you have an account for PTD???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2370521590278153537.post-43580068942872752862011-10-04T21:32:28.865-04:002011-10-04T21:32:28.865-04:00fifthfifthGuitarman13579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2370521590278153537.post-75139996320820855292011-10-04T21:25:02.281-04:002011-10-04T21:25:02.281-04:003!3!VNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472192572414203544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2370521590278153537.post-53671839311579573342011-10-04T15:33:20.930-04:002011-10-04T15:33:20.930-04:00hey kevin
