Dear lord, the Amazon. And the Sorceress, but for completely different reasons.
Japan sure loves their D&D 2e. And their titties.
Because, look at them! Even if you look at Vanillawareâs other concept art this is crazy.

Iâve heard complaints about characters heads being smaller than their breasts but herâs is smaller than her shoulder muscles.

The Sorceress has managed to twist herself into a position where sheâs sticking her butt at the screen, yet we can still see both breasts, and her arm is in such a position that her staff is nestled in her butt crack.
The in-game artwork looks fine but these two pieces of concept have some major compositional issues.
I <3 Sorceress
Shadows over Mysteria - Weaboo edition FTW
dude itâs just his style, who gives a shit. Itâs one thing to complain about the sexualization I suppose, but his style is just his style. He has never once tried to do art realistically. Just look at the side characters like Odin or that other dude, or Raijin in Muramasa. Kamitani just likes to massively exaggerate perspectives and such.
No way is it close to Rob Liefield bad, I think for the Amazon it was a perspective shot, for the appearance of her looking very tall, but it was slightly off so I do agree her head shouldâve been much larger.
To Liefieldâs credit he draws some damn good faces, even though the head and the rest of the body in general is with terrible proportions, allll the time. I was mad, when I would see he was the artist for Deadpool Corps with each issue, then the guest spots shit over him lol.
GTFO of this thread and donât come back until youâve played them both until your eyes bleed.
Go ahead, son⌠chop chop! clap clap
Someone has to say it.
Iâd smash Amazon over Chun.
I looked at some of the other artwork from the links you gave. Itâs very exaggerated proportions in general, which is stylized. The way the artist draws perspective though, warps their proportions even more, and thatâs where it falls apart. Iâd say itâs less emphasis on composition issue, and more on perspectives and view points that screw with the proportions even more, making the composition look worse. The artistâs proportions are already very stylized.
Again, I still wouldnât go as far as to say theyâre almost as bad as Liefieldâs, cause I have a hard time even seeing perspective in Liefieldâs drawings, they tend to lay flat, and have inconsistent proportions from frame to frame, with no change in perspective. This guyâs stuff has one aspect making another look even worse than should. Iâm not defending the work, moreso just saying itâs not almost as bad as Liefield lol.
Liefeldâs art is bad because he CANâT draw proportions.
This artwork is fine because it is intended.
I have made it abundantly clear that I am familiar with the style. I even posted links to the concept art for previous games. The quality of the composition of these two pieces seems to be jarringly different.
Even Raijinâs head makes more sense compared to the body size than Amazonâs
I think the game looks cool. All of Vanillawareâs games look cool. I only have issue with these pieces of concept art and thatâs only because this issue with them seem to go beyond the umbrella of âstyle.â If these were done by Hyung-Tae Kim http://www.creativeuncut.com/gallery-10/mc2-zephie.html it wouldnât be so surprising.
Edit: Though I guess it is harsh to compare anyone to Liefield. I mean heâs kinda in a league of his own.
Whaaaa? All of Liefieldâs charactersâ faces look like they are in varying degrees of constipation.
Every Liefeld face ever.
Constipated and lacking an upper lip.
Also, the ULTIMATE LIEFELD CHARACTER AND NAME.
Female faces.
But yeah, I tried to at least give Liefield a tad bit of credit, my bad, I shouldnât have done that. Cause, yeah⌠man. Ugh.
Even Deadpool makes fun of his co-creatorâs art work, joking his excessive pouches lol
Dragonâs Crown = fastest growth of hentai pics EVAR
