Darn, there are already so many swordsman over Marth.

Well, lots of Fire Emblem characters fit Marth's build.

[Revan]

This is very true, although same could be said for Ike as they have  practically the same body, his strong arm moves just don't fit most.

[Iwvi]

It doesn't matter, you can easily port Marth models over Ike. And the other way around.

That Chrom is amazing,really no point in updating the one I made. Seeing that I decided to update some of my old works with new models.

[Bad Box Art Mega Man]

[Demon_of_Elru]

Yes, they're still on Peach and Zelda.

excellent; I entertain at a college I attend, and the HD Marina I have doesn't really impress (i'm ok with it). the old Shantae they're okay with, but they'll be more impressed with this one.

Dang it!

*Ahem* Anyway, Elru, I'm looking forward to this Marina model. From what I can tell, you're making very good progress on her.

[Bad Box Art Mega Man]

I actually know someone who would be interested in her model. he makes ragdolls for garrysmod, and likes to keep things game-originated. he also likes lesser-known characters like Marina, Gex and Shantae.

Holy [censored]!!!
Finally a Shantae model import YAY :D
I love shantae

*Stares at DoE's post.*

These people keep proving to me how far I need to improve...

[Peardian]

*Marina*
*Shantae*

Wooo! I'm looking forward to seeing custom models of these two. I've never seen a good model of Marina (too obscure I guess?) and the models of Shantae I've seen are either low-poly or too high-quality for games.

My suggestions for Shantae:
-The jewel on her headband is too high up. It is supposed to be centered on the band rather than connected at the bottom.
-Her hair looks great from that first shot, but I bet it doesn't look so great from most other angles. The big challenge with stylized hair like this is finding a shape that looks good from all angles. Case in point: that second image of her makes it look like she only has short hair on her head.
-Her ponytail needs to be bigger and bushier. Right now, its skinniness doesn't make it look very strong.
-Her breasts are protruding out of her chest too much for their shape. The gap you can see under them makes them seem like rigid protuberances. Unfortunately, I have no suggestions on how to improve them.
-The texture on her body is nice so far, but I think some of the muscle-defining shading is too strong. The lines on her back, combined with the size of the shoulders, make those parts of the torso seem unnaturally bulky.
-Don't forget her floaty armband things, which are strangely missing from her original GB sprites but appear in the artwork and later games.

My suggestions for Marina:
-I know her arms are skinny, but I don't think they are that skinny. They are at least as thick as her neck.
-I think you'll have a hard time working with her hands if her thumb is located where it is. In fact, it looks like she can hardly move it at all.
-Don't forget about the round bump things on her shoulders.


Good luck in finishing these!
