News Team NINJA Costume Contest

[Argentus]

can I get opinions on the last Mila concept? I decided I'm gonna submit both.ablue and classic version, so I'm just working on details now.

 

[David Gregg]

I personally would make the pants more form fitting and not so big and loose. And you know how I feel about the color scheme (blue all the way. lol)

lol, right. I still prefer dark and ice blue instead of black and blue. how bout the cursive and block sleeve letter n the jacket instead f sports stripes, or any comments on glasses or the bra and underwear?

They look fine but it's easier to give feedback when the outfit is colored in.

That Robo-Kokoro looks kinda scary but at the same time, I could imagine a Robo-Hayate or Robo-Ayane created by MIST! Ö_Ö

Anyways, 14 days left for the Contest. I´m excited for the chosen conpects.

Kokoro meets Terminator

 

[Matt Ponton]

Small tidbit of knowledge. The guy who was fighting the hardest for her name to be Kokoro, when told No, his second choice was an android who used a satellite connection to assassinate Helena's mother. His passion and craziness for the android was so great that Itagaki decided to agree to let her name be Kokoro instead.

True story.

Man I really love the positive vibe in this contest. Its a cool drift away from all the nagging.

I love the great designs too, lots of potential winners

 

[Kronin]

So I did and update ish verson? aha I changed the shirt a bit and made it black. The white version or the black version guys?

Damn it's hard to choice, the Black version appear really good too! By the way I think that the fist version would appear more various inside the DoA5U wardrobe of Ayane, so I would opt for it just for a such reason.

feedback on latest version please.

Everything seems perfect to me: really nothing to add, you made a great work!

That sounds a million times more awesome than Kokoro... Now I'm sad.

For those who don't believe me:
1up Interview

So there was a lot of discussion over nationality and what we should do, and the ultimate decision was made that, if there was going to be this much dissent over what to do, then we should just choose someone from our own country and that would make a good character. So, when the discussion of "should we make her American or English" got really heated, one of the staff said "Oh, how about Japanese?" I said "No, not Japanese." And he said "Seriously, how about a robot?" And when I saw that this guy was seriously suggesting making her a robot I realized that he was completely out of his mind, so I said "OK, Japanese is fine."

And we've already decided that all of the female characters of this game will appear at a South Pacific island with coconuts and all that good stuff.

1UP: What? Where?

TI: Of course, DOAX2. And when I said "No one wants to see a robot in a bathing suit," the other guy was like "Well, there are some robots that are sexy." I said "Oh, this guy is crazy." And at this point I got fed up with the whole thing, that's when I decided on Japanese and the name 'Kokoro.'

...

You know there was a chance that she would be this android that had a satellite connection to a sniper satellite that could attack you from 10,000 miles up in orbit. That was one of the ideas that came across. And the guys suggested that it was this crazy plot about how it was actually this sniper satellite that killed Maria, Helena's mother, in the backstory. This guy was crazy.

It may be mentioned elsewhere, but he came up with the name Kokoro because the guy was so passionate. (Kokoro means "Heart" in Japanese).

 

[Grimace]

oh my god that would have been awesome

 

[Brute]

[synce]

Thanks for that... the sexy robot bit killed me.

Anyone get any likes/comments for their entries yet?
I received some likes and a comment from DOA's own Christie-Michael Savtsov (lol) saying to read the rules about helping my brother w/his entry. The people running the contest have replied w/"Thank you", so I think it's fine. Rules say one entry per person, but not anything about helping someone w/art.

I expressely asked this to TN, they said me that it's allowed if the artist agree and the design is original.

I just got the typical "Thanks for your entry" reply from their Facebook page. I hope they realize that I'm actually quite serious about my submission, despite it's unique nature.

As far as regular user comments, likes, re-tweets and favorites, yes, I have received them.

 

[SilverForte]

My pics almost done, should be up by tomorrow

When the Akira design from hinogami was posted on twitter, I said them that now BananAkira had a worthy rival and they answered with a "Mmmm." (that I interpreted like a serious consideration about my statement). So yes, I think that they consider serious your entry (more I'm sure that many Japanese people should love the "crazy" idea XD)
