The new models :)

I'm also not happy with the anime-style leg proportions, but I think the heels are also playing a part in this. The current (old) models are cool for not following cartoon/anime conventions in their designs and I wish these new ones would have more of that "realistic" feel.

I appreciate the effort going into this art upgrade, regardless.

I totally agree, female archer of Syrtis are not nice at all:
- heels ?? seriously ?
- big ass ?
- running animation = robot
- normal attack animation : why bow has to return to horizontal position on each arrow ?
- strafing animation : short bow crosses the head
- manga-style actions : cheer, kiss especially looks too childish to me

Overall, i still prefer my old model. Atm, nothing really positive over the old one.

Quality of animations are much more important that armour details imho.

Let's hope all this will be improved.
