    Once the game model is finished, and it it has been given the real-time shaders (including colors/effects), it will look almost exactly like the concept art.

    I'm quite pleased with her design~

    Could we have a high-res version of the concept art please?



    You have it exactly right.

    The colors used in the Sculpt (yes, even the hair colors) are just there for the artist to help distinguish between sub-objects, or for a quick reference for review.
    color and textures are find and all. but howabout her face, and how tall she is.. and how changing the model color to blue and touch up on the textures isnt going to make her look like shiva?

    This looks like Shiva's twerpy little sister.

    Slightly confused but if I read your last sentence right, then changing the colors to cool colors and adding textures will make her look pretty Shiva like (imo) - after that they might add some shaders like shinny sparkles of fun.

    Without a scale next to her we really cant say how tall she is, they could have really zoomed in on a tiny model- or it could be freaking huge.. lol

    Her face is all wrong man, blue, purple, green, whatever... its not a shiva face... it belongs somewhere else.

    I rest my case.

    Mamba is talking about the facial structure (model) not the colors.

    The model is a WIP and Mamba also admits it can change - I think because they mentioned colors once it appeared that's the issue they were posing.

    Similar for kitten - I mistook it as well, they mean "whatever color it doesn't matter, the model doesn't look right" (the face again).

    Thanks Shougun for clarifying the point I was trying to make.
