[FIGHTER] Soul Edge, TAKI, Dogg

Dogg

I'm doing a reinterpretation of Taki from Soul Blade/Edge/Calibur.

Edit: I'm thinking of some other concepts, so the following is redundant.
Taki will be recovering from injuries obtained in a recent demon fight. The nerves in her right arm are destroyed and she cannot use this arm anymore. Still partly wrapped in bandages she stands fierce and is determined to take revenge.

Apart from her injuries I'm restyling her outfit to give her a slightly more mature and wiser look. I'm adding attributes to account for her newly acquired fighting style, losing the function in her right arm had it's effects. I'm also reducing the redicilous boob size they gave her in Soul Caliber - does that alone not account for a reinterpretation?
On a more serious note, is this enough of a reinterpretation?



Started with my concept, it's still very early though, but maybe you can get an idea.



I'm not sure what I will focus on, this or the upcoming DW, we'll have to see .

Worked on the concept some more. I'm not sure if I'm happy with this idea yet, also because it not really a reinterpretation, is it?
Might try some different directions soon, maybe a bit of sci-fi or something.



Would love to hear what you think!

I think you need to go waaaaaaaay further out there. I think this is too close to the original for this challenge. take a look at some of the other concepts on the forum for examples.

Love Taki. Probably my fav fighting game character.

I have to agree with Endr though. Just injuring her and aging her a few years isn't really a redesign even though you are making her new clothes. Think up a new theme for her. Zombie, Victorian, Cavewoman, etc.

I'm also glad you'll be reducing her breastage. They are a bit silly.

Thanks for the comments, will probably drop this concept. I started to doubt about it too, although I like the idea of someone having a creative fighting style due to a handicap. I might be able to incorporate that into any new designs though.
I'm gonna give it a think!
