Guess who’s back?
There is a prophecy we shared upon this blog, and it seems the guys at Soul Calibur are doing everything in their power to make it come true.
Think I’m joking!? This brilliant design which is a limited time collectible on Lost Swords was designed by a Hentai artist. Now I should clarify, I don’t mean an artist who happens to have done drawn some porn at various times to pay the bills – I mean it’s his preferred genre and the one that he’s built his fanbase on.
I guess they figured his expertise would add polished professionalism to their already porntastic costume catalog for a game that already incorporates destroyable armor.
Thank you to pinchtheprincess for directing us to this one.

Dynamite comics has got to their #100th issue of Red Sonja… and apparently feel the best way to celebrate this is with multiple covers.
- Two of which depict Sonja being undressed against her will, with one looking so disturbingly suggestive it warranted us to put a trigger warning tag on this post
- One shows her battling something indistinct with fluff text to suggest she’s badass
- One with a boringly generic pose and awkwardly-placed list of the creators of the stories from the issue
- One shows her looking cartoonishly child-like
Dynamite Comics totally respects the character guys! It’s just keeping this ridiculous outfit for branding and nostalgia! Honest!

It shouldn’t be surprising how the cutesy cover is the least terrible of them all. It’s by far the best drawn of the bunch and the only one where “can I fap to this?” clearly wasn’t a design consideration.

How to design a sci-fi heroine right
Morrigan submitted:
Thought it’d be interesting to show the design process by the artist at Zeboyd Games when he designed the heroine for their upcoming sci-fi RPG, Cosmic Star Heroine:

Note here how he really put some thought into her outfit and how it fits the setting and story. And the result is fantastic, practical yet stylish and not “boring” at all:
What’s this? No gratuitous boob window in the outfit, no skin-tight latex that makes her look almost naked, no boobs-and-butt pose? Well, I’m shocked. 🙂 Thank you, Bill @ Zeboyd, for making Alyssa awesome without cheapening her with gratuitous sexification. <3
I love that based off the answer, Bill could probably talk all day about his character design decisions without ever needing to go into discussion of their sex appeal. Probably one of the reasons why the alpha of the game shows so much promise.
