Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

[Lauront]

It isn't a case of a dichotomy between that or being big and bulky. There are plenty of builds and looks in between. I do think it's well drawn, and wouldn't describe it as child-like, however it does look a lot less mature than the females.

Hmm... Maybe I should draw a male and female viera next to each other in my style. I think having them side by side in my style would make more sense for people seeing it I guess. idk Maybe I'll do that when I'm feeling less lazy.

I'd like this, I think it'd be a great comparison, if you'd be more than willing to draw for us of course~

ya boiiii
idk when but maybe I'll do it

Despite the negativity, I was inspired to do my own concept artwork, with different representations displayed.

The left is the baseline viera, middle is him in his racial armor (pauldrons, gauntlets, greaves, also the potd hair for fun prince charming kind of) with a kind of blue steel and red highlighted look, and the third is him with spiky hair (yu-gi-oh! guy for inspiration) and some chest fluff.



Now these are just rough sketches so don't be too harsh. It's concept art, so I didn't make a scene or try to add any details to create a story through the art.

I hope the development team factor in your artwork if and when they decide to add them!

How about a build like Sephiroth? Apparently he is 6'1", pretty well built. Not bulky.

I dont get why ppl would be too harsh, considering this are amazing, and in a very unique art style

Considering I last drew my "male Viera" with long Sephiroth-like flowing silver locks, I wouldn't be at all opposed to the idea

That already exists. Why not play Elezen?
