Trying to figure out Slayer {Guilty Gear sketch}

Share

DeviantArt - Tumblr


Got some images from Xrd figure mode and decided to make a rough sketch trying to figure out Slayer’s design w/ some extra notes from me. I noticed that (at least in Xrd), Slayer looks both weirdly top-heavy and has a tiny waist, his proportions overall looking really weird. Probably a mixture of him having a waist band under his suit + gold buckles tightening his suit in the front + a strange band-brace-looking thing with the two dangly things in the back, all pressing on his waist. Makes him look goofier (affectionate) hjsagjads.


I hope you like it!

LMAOOOO No joke, Guilty Gear models in general proportionately look odd. I would even go as far to say as they look so much more normal in Xrd when compared to strive.

I hope ya don’t mind me telling you a little story here; A while back, one of my friends as a joke wanted to make Sol do a bunch of TF2 dances. When he was showing me his animation process, that was when I first noticed just how odd the body proportions are. His head looks so much smaller than the rest of his body ^_^;

When we eventually get Slayer in strive, I wonder how beefed out they are going to make him LMAO

awesome job as usual ^_^

Lmaoooo. With making the models do TF2 dances: Have you shown your buddy Munchyjr by any chance? Munchy's made videos like making Xrd Robo-Ky's model dance (Robo Rock) and stuff.

Guilty Gear character proportions have gotten more wacky (affectionate) ever since they moved to a cartoonier character style in Xrd. A lot of the jokes about the male characters' waists (i.e. "Sol Badhourglassfigure", I've seen plenty of jokes about Venom having a twiggy waist, etc.) didn't really pick up until Xrd, and the jokes I've seen about Sol's waist still continue into Strive lmao. With the 2D sprites (primarily XX and other games based off of its art), they + their character proportions were noticeably less exaggerated, at least in their torso areas (though the character portraits are memed to hell for their derpy expressions). Slayer's silly hairstyle was more clearly shown to be the bangs-section instead of a solid forward-swept block in the 3D models.

Lmao I hope Slayer gets in Strive. I wanna see who kills Strive Chipp faster: Goldlewis, Nago, or Slayer sgdajshdk. He doesn't strike me as somehow who'd get much more outwardly beefed out, he can already punch people into space without having any exaggerated muscles like Chipp and he seems to be someone who likes his suit silhouette more than a muscled one lmao.

Many thanks! 8}
