Yeah really digging the look of scorpion and raiden and agree that sonya could use some pants. Maybe something like Leona’s kof12 sprite/design, sexy and practical:bgrin:
I always felt MK was just a stiff street fighter clone that relied on graphics and blood to get by.

Ed Boone needs to grow the fuck up like (the majority of) his market did. I want very much to have a playable MK game.
Mk needs a facelift?
THIS LOOKS LIKE A JOB FOR… M.U.G.E.N.
… or not…
anywho, i like the design, i used to play Mk a lot when i was little… i think because it was the main arcade fighting game that was ever around. i disliked it when Mk4 was released.
it seems like if they could find some way to bring it into a modern age while remaining constant to its old core gameplay, much like sf4 did, it could be successful with its old fans.
These designs are cool but if anyone is charging into the MK lead designers office it should be related to the shitty game system first since that is the #1 reason I will likely never play another MK game ever again (because I don’t see things ever getting better).
why do i get the whole " Conan the Barbarian" vibe from these images and whats up with the big glove on sonyas hand.
lol now that i think about it …MK wud actually look good in a conan look…shao khan is basically conan wearing a skull mask.
Why Midway, why did you reject these designs?
People forget that MK5 was where the series LOOKED as if it was in a turnaround. And then 6 and 7 just ended up dragging the series down even further.
SMH
Are they idiots, or do they really have good intentions? The mechanics in MKs post UMK3 are just atrocious.
Butterface Sonia 
MK is undeserving of Scorpion looking that cool.
If a new mk game come out with this guys character designs, the gameplay went back to mk2/ mk3 basics… and it wasn’t 3d gameplay… I would pay $70 for this game.
It’s not gonna happen though.:lame:
shit looks hideous, almost as bad as og mk. good designs lolzzzz, some funny guys.
Some people don’t know how to appreciate art/talent. Look at SF. It went waterpaint and it looks great and was accepted by the majority. Anyway, I love the Scorpion and Kano designs. MK4>rest of 3D MKs however MK2>all MK!
Lol kano looks like a hillbilly street fighter fan
All of these suck except for Raiden and that one is good because it JUST RAIDEN
Taking a character and cranking up the grimdark factor ruins the original character designs
its probably just me but the original MK character design has a certain charm to it that should be left alone.
that’s one thing Midway DID get right, design. Characters, stages and the overall atmosphere of the original MK games and even some of the 3D ones held true to that.
if only we could throw all that goodness on top of a solid fighting engine.
somebody requested that the scorp and sub pics be put into a wallpaper, so I threw this together:

Whoa. This Vince guy is super talented, why he was rejected is beyond me…
qft.
Logically speaking, why would a Ninja wear yellow?
Considering the story often says scorpion is the only actual ninja in the game, youd think he would look like noob saibot.
Too much tatoos, jap swords and spikes… and is that a six-shooter Sonya is carrying?
I don’t have a problem with Sonya’s skimpy clothes, though. I mean, male character are always wearing those and it’s normal.
and what Sirlin pitch was that?
And I think everybody only wants Sonya to wear pants because of C.Viper heh. I think they suit her and I think Vince was modeling her after the Sonya in the movies because she was pants-less in both.
