Shiva model!

[Shougun]

I personally think it would be perfectly ok if she was an average size of an average Elezen. Doesn't mean she's less dangerous and I sort of like when summons don't follow a uniform size model (meaning; I'd think it would be cool if she wasn't as scaled as Garuda, for example) Just a personal preference.

She will only be cool if she is this big:

(I use this image enough I should just save it to my desktop lol)

I do wish she was more iconic to shiva though - I feel like Fern's joke that she is Siren is maybe that the joke is its not Shiva and is Siren.. lol

(But I thought we saw Siren was like Garuda, I cant remember)

Perhaps when she gets into combat she ice glazes her skin iconic-ly, and maybe takes more clothes off... I mean.. for nostalgia.. lol

I dont like the design one bit, its too human. normal skin color and high heels? really? sorry but it doesnt look one bit like shiva besides the slutty costume (which is good).

The one from the artwork looks much better, pale skin and a darker blue. I hope the change it.

Will most likely be looking like the artwork on the actual finished model once the ice effect and skin tones are added in. At least that's what I'm guessing.

Hahaha bark louder please, I know you do that much.

Now I see why people call fanboys blind.

Shiva looks kinda weird. I think its highlights in her hair & probably needs more pale skin.

Here thanks for reading.

For those that don't know, ZBrush is a supplumental tool set (though they have been trying to push to becoming a fully fledged, self-contained kit) for 3D modeling primarily used to create normal maps. ZBrush is somewhat unique in that the model behaves more like a lump of clay than a descrete set of polygons.

Rather than adjusting individual verticies or lines or faces of the model (the standard way to manipulate models in Maya or 3DMax), ZBrush lets you sculpt the model as if it were clay or putty (it then behind the scenes calculates what verticies need to go where to make the model you sculpted). It's a much more fluid mode for modeling for anyone who started their career in physical mediums.

There is one serious problem though, the models created by ZBrush are way too complex for any reasonable machine to be able to handle them. This is why it is primarily used for conceptual work and normal maps (color textures that are calculated based off of higher-polygon models which alter the surfaces of a lower-polygon model to give it a more complex appearance than it actually has).

From my casual understanding, colors in ZBrush are purely ascthetic, since they likely will be completely scrapped when the model is converted into a normal map.

shiva has always worn skimpy stuff

And that's when she was actually wearing something.
I don't remember many actual "clothes" in FFVIII/IX, it was more like she put ice to cover her privates

Now I see why some people are too confidence in their self, that they label anyone in a particular "title" and called them blind. Oh the mockery~

I'm betting you never even played Tera which is why you can't see where people drew the comparison, especially if you look at a lot of Castanic and High Elf armor sets.

Har har you loose your bet then. I've played Tera, as a High Elf Lancer, and Castanic Warrior. Now pay up! >

So you're purposely being ignorant? That's even worse.

In all honesty, the is probably one of the most clothed Shiva in FF history.




Shiva has never been known for her conservative clothing...

Wrong... here you go.
