That other thing I was talking about....



Well, I guess the humour in that scene is a bit out of context, since nobody's seen this character before.... I also made sure to keep it very spoiler free, considering when it takes place....

Tidying up a few more loose ends....

Things have been kinda moving a bit slow.... Instead, I've been spending time photoshopping a few works over the last week or so. Well, I did manage a couple of things, I guess....

- STK movelist/collection
- Putting a few extra touches to the (???-STK-??? combo)/ (Super-Charged Kougeki)/(Yuuki no Nekketsu) triple attack
- "Lining up" and finishing off a few sketches I made while ago....
- Started the layout for "a kinda odd, bath house scene"

Oh, almost forgot. There's one other thing I did, just over the weekend, actually. I'll say more about this, soon....

Finished up two major areas....

Right, I've finalized one major character and put some long overdue work into the GDR-03 line. I never planned it this way, but I'm starting to think that the back-story to the GDR-03 line might become better than that for GDR-02. There's also a few things here and there I've been doing as well:

- Fully developed CN character design
- Goji's helmet collection, it's more relevant than it first looks....
- A beetle gathering session
- First revision of the actual GDR-03(more below)
- EX1-GDR-03, Centurion Blaster re-design
- GDR-03 line development tree
- Thought up combination themes
- Changed/added some attack names
- Minor revisions to the Unlock System list
- New Unlock names: Surge/Surge Execute(Unleash) and Ward(Reflect only)
- Created an album for STK work here

I guess, I could say a bit more about the second of the two major developments. While I've been laying out the GDR-03 series, something eventually dawned on me. I realized all this time the 03 variants have been designed and in place, but there was no starting 03 model for them to be based upon. It felt kinda strange how there can be variations of a non-existent original, it's a hole I thought I really should fill in.

So, I began work on a new suit with aspects of the variants built into it, bearing in mind SNT-00's origins and came up with this design. This is meant to be the basis for the others in the GDR-03 line, so there's enough resemblance to look like the 03 variations were derived from it, while also having the "feel" of being from a future GDR line. Having to reverse-develop this from existing designs, here's the aptly named Guardian Rider Incorp:

There are some differences because the variants were supposed to be based on incomplete plans, a stripped down verion or re-constructed. So right now, this design is mainly for completeness' sake, I have no plans for the original to actually make an appearance... yet.

Oh yeah... I also updated my profile again. It's just random info, not meant to hint at anything... um, I think?
