New key art for Astral Chain on JP eshop
- Thread starter Eolz
- Start date
thought it didnt seem like an art of his. he's pretty good at drawing curvy females.
You thought a woman in anime could be fully covered from the waist up while also not showing exposed flesh from the waist down you have another thing coming, missy!
Wrong person, Katsura was the artist for the I's and Zetman manga, and also the character designer for Tiger and Bunny.
I'm very, VERY excited to see and hear more about this game. However, the girl in the art feels a bit weird.
Oh, I didn't mean "we" as in Era. I meant "we" as in a society.
She is not a model, she is a police officer. T&A poses in heels are entirely impractical, way harder to uphold than they look actually, and also ill-conceived in establishing this character's abilities in combat.
Good thing I wasn't actually talking about whether or not the pose is out of character and even brought up attire issues
.
I honestly think everything but the girl's lower half looks pretty good / stylish. That bit just kinda ruins it

Yes I get it's used in modeling a lot, but she is a police woman combatant.
Jokes aside...
This art looks awful. The faces look off and the line work looks rushed
Honestly the only thing that seems well drawn are the bg, the mech and the ass.

Looks like another 1000 year old dragonExpected, we are talking about a guy that teaches the art of drawing butt to young up-and-coming artists. He draws what he loves, and is not afraid to tell it.
The Astral Chain cop has to have her ass out at all times because it fires bullets, it's in the lore
The lighting is so weird compared to his usual stuff >.< Just makes it look super strange compared to what I'm used to from him. He can do flatter, comic-y lighting:
And way more realistic lighting:
But this is like some... Weird, 3D model-esque thing. Like he's copying Platinum's in-game implementation of his design rather than just drawing it?
You speak as if this is common knowledge or that I or others should be familiar with all the artist's work LOL
If you're going to go out of your way to put ass on display (which I don't think made sense here to be clear) it should at least be "phat".
Also, as has been said elsewhere, her whole bottom section looks a bit off.
Oh, yes those look different yep maybe because its a videogame instead of a comic he made them closer to the models, but they still look drawn on specially on the hairThe lighting is so weird compared to his usual stuff >.< Just makes it look super strange compared to what I'm used to from him.

Honestly, you don't know even need to read his manga, as it becomes very obvious by just looking at some of the manga covers. As for your second point, I disagree that small butts shouldn't be represented in promotions, and I will fight you to the death to prove my point. /s
No arguments about her anatomy, as it does looks wrong from below the waist.
That just looks bad, regardless of the butt pose. It doesn't even look "sexy" as intended, it's just awkwardly forced here.
It's nice to finally see something new from the game, but uh....I'm not a huge fan of this piece of art. I don't like the colors and the female characters proportions look very off. I doubt this will be for the box art, so it's whatever. Everything in-game looks great though. Excited to see more at E3.
I wouldn't call a shot just framing the entire character from behind a butt shot. Though the added animation of her pants creasing as she walks is an interesting detail.

Is it just me, or are her legs much shorter than they should be?
Let's not get too crazy here. Once her ass gets its own subreddit, then we'll talk

Why can't Japan into pants on females? Must be a law requiring to show at least visible thigh.
I wonder why they are still holding back on marketing for the game. It's out in August, that's 3 months away, and there are still zero details about the Japanese LE package. We know there's an artbook and a soundtrack, but no details about the actual content. We don't even know who the composer is, or the "other famous creators lined up".
I expect an information dump during E3. Taura did retweet Nintendo's E3 announcement.
I am holding you responsible if it does happen.
I mean super Mario maker 2 just got it's marketing started and that game is coming out a month and a half away...
Astral chain will probably get E3 trailer / treehouse deep dive and then the actual marketing will start in early August after fire emblem is out ?
Underage butts?Expected, we are talking about a guy that teaches the art of drawing butt to young up-and-coming artists. He draws what he loves, and is not afraid to tell it.
FBI time
Maybe it just style of the old manga/anime that he going for.The lighting is so weird compared to his usual stuff >.< Just makes it look super strange compared to what I'm used to from him. He can do flatter, comic-y lighting:

also this key art is nice.
