>>420331 God I wish. That 1 head of hair makes the 2 trilogies NON-interchangeable. No amount of modding can repair this. You can change CLOUD Spires from rock back to clouds, but all the cutscenes are pre-rendered.
All the developers are into the Christmas images now. This one comes from an in-development mecha game I'm interested in (its got that VOTOMS feel to it).

Oh wow, guess this proves OP was just using this thread to post furry art. Guess its good other people were posting proper official/concept art meaning it was left with actual content to keep it alive.
>>424275 Cool Spot was a pretty decent design for a mascot. Can't believe he got his own videogames. In my country the 7up mascot is/was some cartoon dude with wavy hair.
This image came out along with the prequal comic for SF6. Interesting that they went and made sprite versions of the characters who were introduced in later games.
>>424856 Another official Akuma thing, specifically a scrapped concept art for him in 5.
Would you take the raging demon seriously if he had a baby on his back? More logically can see why it was scrapped, anytime he was knocked down he would be falling onto the brat. Or various kind of attacks could end up with the opponent visibly striking the baby (Cross-Up Infanticide!).
>>424916 nah, you could get around those easily by giving him stances where the baby is always on the back, have him turn around to fall onto his chest etc. Or even simpler, he puts the baby down at the start of the match, and it would follow around the fighters, like Anita or Huitzils kid in Darkstalkers 3.
Akuma having a kid would've been pretty interesting though, and I think it would've been better to see "character who was raised by X" or "is a disciple of X", rather than the dumb new crap they put in new games. But most people don't give a fuck and just want to see the legacy characters.
>>424918 I mean one of the new characters in sf6 is a disciple of an existing playable character, Kimberly is the ninja apprentice of Guy. And I think the new DLC chick AKI is the protege of FANG from sf5 as well. Hell Sean too in sf3 was the student of Ken, but for some reason they made him a jobber and a joke, he started off strong gameplay-wise until they nerfed him into the dirt.
>>420178 This would probably play like a normal Metal Slug character but on a larger scale.
It was a shame, the Slug Gunner that you see playable in games that is basically a metal slug turret with arms and legs was noticeably worse to use than just the normal tank metal slug.
