Ayumi Namae Appreciation Thread

[Naglaya]

I loved her! She dressed and presented herself so well, I was so glad I got to go to her signing session. In my eyes, she did very well for her first time being on stage in front of so many people and I loved how the crowd cheered her on, especially at the closing ceremony. Though I found it rude many people left during her first time answering questions on stage, very disrespectful.... I mean, c'mon! You see that she's very nervous to begin with and you still get up and make her feel unwanted? :/

She was so sweet and I really loved everything about her panels. I adore the art style and it was really interesting to hear how things go from being concept to in the game. If they ever release an artbook full of the concepts that were created and the one they went with (like how they showed the 4 concepts of Yotsuyu), I'd love to get my hands on it.

You can't see a thing about what's happening in the room when you are on these kind of scene so don't think she noticed that
(especially with the stress)

Love her work and passion. I would purchase art books if she had some

Yea it would be cool if they could release some tutorial artbook from Miss Namae which focuses on the process. I think some concept artists would be keen to buy and learn something from Miss Namae.

She was pretty awsome during the fan fest despite her nerves she rocked that stage.

Does anyone know which character design is she in charge of for Shadowbringers?

No but a friend and I were talking about it today, and we're both in agreement that she likely had a fairly large design role for a lot of the outfits in the game and not just the characters. Many of the dungeon drops feel like they were designed by her based on what we saw at fanfest.
