I've seen this design in a few animes before, it all looks very uncomfortable and wobbly, but rule of cool right?


I suppose there's a particular subset of folks who prefer more horselike models... Different strokes and all that.

If by Ancient you mean 1947-1957, and the fact that last factory in china that made shoes for women with "lotus feet" was closed down in 1999.

no offense homie but this is more OT than the gakstorm of comparing miniatures from different companies. At least that was relevant to the discussion of the sculpts in the game, if not to the game itself.

Hey Prodos games, if you guys made an option to buy them in metal (I know it would be more expensive), I would rock this game so hard. The uparmored versions look great for the standard power armor ladies. And the female demons in armor look fantastic.

"There will always be haters, people should just shut up and appreciate there being some more Combat Heels models on the market. If you don't like them don't buy them.
If you don't like the aesthetic of combat heels then pay a sculptor to make them look the way you want them to."
'There will always be White Knights, defending the indefensible. But people can go to any of a dozen companies and buy what they want, without the stupid power heels and underboob'.

Sorry, Lockark - but people have a reason to complain, and have plenty of other options.

I don't mean to speak for Lockark, but I'm fairly sure they intended it to be tongue in cheek. Also a parody of a post from the previous page.

I was being sarcastic, I guess I figured most people would of gotten that since I've been prety clear most this threat I think these mini's look bad. lol

If you don't like the aesthetic of the female form then pay a sculptor to make them look the way you want them to.

So shut up and prodos take my money!

Plz please please please make shoulderpads optional and not part of the arm. Also please please please make blank shoulderpads for us who likes to customize our minis.


We're not allowed to complain about how bad the models look because we're not making them. Seems like sound logic.

This isn't really my genre, but imo that's pretty sweet! Especially compared to the original concepts, I much prefer the up-armored version. If you're able to offer both, it would be interesting to see which is more popular (conventional wisdom has been that it's only the revealing models, but with that market being so over-saturated in comparison to armored females, I'm not sure if it's the case here!).

Actually, I had picked up on that, and was replying in kind. (Sort of - more along the lines of the routines that old Vaudeville comedians used to have - call an response on a theme, rather than planned.)

I was kind of expecting him to reply in character.

I was trying to figure out how to explain what's wrong with the figures and the concept art, and I think this is what it comes down to:

A football dress

plus guns, boots, and metal gloves is still a football dress.

Why are you making football dresses?

Don't mind the gangsta pose in this one, the only complaint is that the legs look a little short? They should be longer than the upper body
PS will there a bundle for those who want to have both versions? instead of buying the adult version and the kiddie version separately?

It turns out Alexander McQueen has some more examples.

which looks like this when worn by a person:

That's from "Ensemble, It’s Only a Game, spring/summer 2005".

If you have force fields, that makes fashion okay to wear into combat, right?

To be fair, that's relatively conservative compared to some of the stuff you see on a catwalk.

You'll be needing coherent male sculpts for it fo actually feel like an integrated force. How about something like this:



Too tame, maybe? Guess it needs legs/arms protection, though.
