Kimono Kasumi (too popular)
Ayane costume based on DOA3 C1(or atleast that's what it looks like)
and Blue shirt denims Hitomi(but unfortunately wasn't on the list)

if we ever get a Designer's Contest pack and General Ein is in I'd definitely sub that costume. General Ein makes casual Ein look really lame.

By the way if sooner or later I will get again the possibility to send an outfit for Ein, I will design for him a casual outfit if again Ein will be lacking of them (and with more details this time). I would have never imagined that in the end only another person would have sent an entry for the character in the contest, personally I was sure to see many causal outfits for him (and also for this reason I decided to make something different).

What do you think of my first casual idea for him? Don't worry be honest, also if you think that sucks or that on the opposite is better than what I sent to TN =)

I was referring to what Kronin said. "why Team Ninja doesn't decide to base their future DLC uniquely on these great designs"
Instead of just one winner.

Probably will. keep in mind TN just keeps talking prizes I think they're waiting for the dust to clear before they decide what to put in.

TN surely hit me where it's hardest in this contest. :/ The initial neglect to upload, the delay and now the positioning of my entry at the very bottom of Page 2. I really feel that my entry is so overshadowed.

Also, not every costume might be possible ingame, they also somewhere pointed that out.
The Skimpy Kimono Kasumi (as I like to call her XD) for example would have to be of an extremely high polygon count to look good. It's that intricate and detailed. Though it will be possible, if TN really wants to.

Sadly a wall of pictures on Facebook don't give you the possibility to choose where to upload the picture, so automatically the picture was added at the very end of the list. The wall of Anthony it was the same: all the entries were placed by him in alphabetical oder if not for the last pictures, the missing ones added later that could be put only in the last places.

The main outfits (so C1 and C2) for the characters of the game ended almost always to be realized with an extreme number of ploygons (in certain cases also excessive, like for example Ayane's C1). It needs a big work and time, but TN already demonstrated that if they want, they can do it.

I am aware you can't rearranged the missing entries to where it is supposed to be correctly positioned but I honestly felt shafted big time. They haven't even made a comment about my concern when I addressed them yesterday and earlier on this day. I was given no explanation nor an apology.

Only they guys are short half of the polygons the girls got. Some look really blocky, especially in their trunks. :(

This particular case is because TN has never realized their models thinking to show them in trunks. So I believe that in a such case would be better to appreciate their efforts to release a DLC pack not planned neither popular, indipendently by how much the male charas look good in it =)

That one winner is not guaranteed to be in the game as DLC.
It was said there are at least 10 possible winners, all of which will get some sort of swag.
All submissions were looked at by Team NINJA and have a chance of being in-game DLC based on the decision of Team NINJA.

Edit, but maybe y'all just don't want to believe me. So here's a quote from Team NINJA on the Facebook page:

We will try to make such winning costumes to be in the game. But obviously we have to think about entire balance of costumes for our characters. But please remember that such costumes are designed by your friends and members of DOA community. It will be serious but very fun event. & Whatever the result would be, we have already appreciated the fact that so many fans created their own costume design for their favorite character."

"We can't guarantee at this time how many costumes could be reality, but top 10 will be announced and will have a prize. Also we will randomly pick up about 10 from fans who make their vote for small thank you goods. Maybe more....."

"We think it (the voting) will be closed on May 6th."

By Casual Ein I meant his casual pack costume haha but, I like it actually apart from the orang/black hoodie it's very similar to the idea I had for him.

WOW! that is very GOOD news! \^o^/
10 is better then 1 and It shows TN really cares for the hard-work the fans put in those costume designs. :D
