Westbrick Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Seems pretty well-proportioned to me. What's the problem, exactly? EDIT: Whoops wrong picture Edited July 20, 2012 by Westbrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave Lord Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Guess the pose was a bit weird, but what about his face ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Valentine Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Guess the pose was a bit weird, but what about his face ? That looks so much better than what we ended up with. Did you draw it yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciarre Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Yeah, the face is better. The eyes and the sort of changed angle makes it look more like Ike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just modified the original, it's the same as the original with different eyes and face shape... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jave Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Definitely my least favorite of the redesigns (although Elincia is a very close runner up). What really bothers me is the right arm, looks like the sword is part of the arm, rather than the hand holding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll make you all love it! I think the most taunting part about it, is the actual design of it is actually pretty good. It's just the pose that throws it off. I only really wish that more creative liberties were taken (a few torn parts and a belt or two thrown on would add a more "Ike"-ish feel, ya know?) Really, it isn't THAT bad. Just not as godly as I was hoping. Roy's redesign got my hopes up too high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Banzai Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 when'd Ike become the Tin Man He's going to see the wizard to find his missing arm Accompanying him are Elincia searching for her missing leg and Micaiah searching for her missing nose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunwoo Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Well ... Tiamo's legs and feet look oddly small and thin in her art. And that's the most glaring one I can think of. (Although DLC Lyn's legs and feet were ridiculously thin as well.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPSEliwoodGabriel Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Errr, I don't mind the design, but THAT HEAD IS WAY TOO BIG. What is he, a lollipop?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cereal Bawks Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) lol. His proportions are weird, and he looks kinda skinny compared to PoR Ike. Edited July 21, 2012 by Cereal Bawks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoon98 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 i hope that they at least play eternal bond for his dlc map music with the battle music being Black Knights battle theme, which makes sense to me given how he important he is to Ike or Time of Action,( idgaf if its PoR map with RD music) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quirino Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Is the the last DLC character? What about Sigurd, Eliwood and Hector? I was hoping for at least Sigurd to appear... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Is the the last DLC character? What about Sigurd, Eliwood and Hector? I was hoping for at least Sigurd to appear... Yes, Ike is the last. Sigurd's chances disappeared a month ago when Cellica was announced, and Eliwood's chance passed when Lyn replaced him. Hector never had a chance.

Original Alear Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I didn't read the whole topic, but some people were talking about the stance of the arm. I don't have any comments about how it's drawn, but I don't think the "idea" of positioning it behind him like that is all that far removed from how he held it in FE9 as a promoted unit. The legs aren't that far from his unpromoted stance IIRC. Seems like an odd combination. It's a matter of stylisation. Anime-style artists often take a bit of liberties with the proportioning and as long as it looks alright, there's no issue with it. This is on the grounds that the artist actually studied human anatomy enough to make such modifications work. Then there's blatant errors that really can't be passed off as stylisation. FE8/9/10/12 and most of awakening's artwork is the former. FE6/11 and some of the less well-done DLC is the latter. Elongation of the legs is very commonly done as a stylisation. I don't see why PoR's art and Awakening's stylisation choices should be treated differently, since both are unrealistic anyway. Why would we fault "humans" who are in a fantasy setting with no apparent link to earth for not matching human anatomy? First, one would have to have a pretty strong understanding of what sorts of conditions favor certain adaptations to occur and shit like that even assuming evolution was the reason for these fantasy humanoids; second, in FE9 and 10, where Ike originates, humans, and laguz, explicitly evolve from creatures created by the goddesses (zuanma) that are apparently not much like anything we have on Earth, so even trying to use evolution and biology is probably a very deluded way of arguing how anything should be drawn in at least some FE games. I mean, fuck, considering how high some of these people - like Ike - jump through the air, it seems likely that gravity is much lower on Tellius, and just about every other FE world/continent/dimension. That would probably lead to differences in proportions that none of you are accounting for, and apparently not the artists who did FE9/10 art, either. There might also be a case for bionic implants of some kind in the soles of the feet of myrmidons and other units that do those weird sliding criticals (that's right - I'm talking battle rollerblades).

Othin Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 If there were cybernetic implants, they'd actually be slightly plausible in Awakening, although the animations also don't seem as over-the-top. Interesting point about gravity, though. And actually supported by pegasi and dragons being able to fly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sallas09 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I'd love it if they ended up using Ascent from RD as the map theme. The battle theme could quite frankly be anything and I'd be happy there. The 26th is just too far off. :s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
