this is a very subjective matter as you all put a lot of your imagination into your characters (even more before when the characters where so bland because of lack of poligons that you rounded the edges and added detail with your mind)

do this exersice, please take other 3 pics of your female uthgar warrior in the official server right now, similar to these pics and add them to this screens on this thread so you and us can compare.

Here you go

Thanks for your reply!

EDIT: Some constructive critism:
I think the problem is the way the abyssal armor looks when equipped by a female Utghar, especially how the leggings makes it look like she's wearing an iron skirt which makes her hips look unnaturally large.
With the avenger and lion armors the new character would possibly look better than the old one if I only had my tattoos

I prefer the new model of your goats.

About the Uthgars; The male kind have had their "special features" - i.e. their "beastliness" - emphasized. Great! Finally looking like the berserk animals they are (in my imagination anyhow).

But their female equivalent seem to have had their "special" features toned down to the point where they seem to be of a different species more human than anything else (possibly interbred with some Avatar species?).

I don't think people choose Uthgar ladies because they want something human-feminine-pretty to look at, but because they want something different. So I think their "uthgar-ness" definitely needs to be emphasized more than this...

BTW: Those large overdimensioned asian-like shoulder pads I would rather do without... It makes characters look like vaguely defined rectangular blocks of armour instead of humanoids.

I really think that the old Znurre looks much better. The eye shades, the black stripes, the more... goaty look. Now Znurre looks like Meryl Streep

Wow what an update, a few pics while my resources download:

The Dark Elves look great!

Guild Wars much?

Ignis changed a lot. Alsius did too. Syrtis ofc for me isn't changed at all.

A ha yes GW, at first I thought more along the lines of Jedi's.

I chose this haircut for simple reason, it was smart and sober (I liked the sad face too, but it must be because I'm a bored person) :

Now it's no more the same haircut (imo), the shape has changed too much (too bulky):

Why can't dark elves eyes be red? They were before.
I think you made females characters way too sexy (don't want to say slut). They're supposed to be fighters, not top models.
However, it's obvious you made a lot of work (and great work) on those models. It's just I'm a bit disappointed girls chars evolve in a way to attract teenagers rather than make them look like fighters.

Actually, I think it's possible to choose the eye color now.

Managed to get on Faith for a bit. Hair and face are quite far removed from what I had though, eyes are all green now? Mine were a purple shade :/ And the hair seems to ... 'big' Least half Elf ears look better now instead of just being wood elf ears that were literaly cut in half. Prehaps an option for all players to repick their faces should be offered, hair I get is premium but that would be nice too.

Pelnil is stuck 'in' Central save column, text/buffs show up ontop of it, cant move, cant see the char.

And I think a lot of mage tunics look a bit bulky

Otherwise didnt spot any major issues in the time I was online, crashed when going to char select from Pel (in the save) though, and am having issues getting to char select.
