I lolled. We should TIME TO GET SERIOUS soon though.
I think a anime styled cheerleader would be the most appropriate, male or female.

it should be a puppy with the osu! disk in its mouth, and its tail can be wagging.

Each character will attract a different audience.the robot will attract a majority of males, and the anime girl will attract more females, and Kai in a pink osu! suit will attract both.

I think he is quoting himself to remind us of his suggestion, but it does give the impression he's arguing with himself.
As for the mascot, I must confess I find all poll ideas a little..."standard", but I will admit I don't have an alternative suggestion that I consider original myself.

I still don't see why Loginer doesn't just post the Osu logo on one of the chan boards and have them magically turn it into a loli like they always do.
He probably hasn't because he realizes that if you throw that onto a chan board for them to do as they like, we'll end up with way more trolls than we do now, and more than likely no usable results.

3: If the topic got a lot of responses, this board would get a lot of spam.
4: The mascot would be more "personal" if the community made it.

Yeah, but it's still a hilarious suggestion.
Back to Sinistro about the whole "we're not being very original" thing, that's true in its entirety, but on the flip-side, it's a pop-sensation sort of premise. How many original ideas exist in rhythm games these days? Well, there's the Taiko mascot, but nothing else really comes to mind. Samba de Amigo's monkey? A clever yet subtle racial stab.
The premise is likely going to lack originality no matter what we do. I think the creativity is in the design, and hopefully we can come up with something beyond standard in the way of character design, like perhaps why this character's cheers are able to accomplish some sort of objective. Why, or How.
I'd think some kind of outfit that channels rhythm into a form of energy or karma which can then be passed on to those in need of help.

Criticism are go, but, make sure you keep the criticisms to the design and not the actual drawing because fuck you I'm not an artist !!! it is also beside the point.
And beating 31Gabe to the punch, no, the girl should not be wearing the kimono. Criticisms are opinions, not statements.
Some things I was considering alternatives for was the grey leotard-ish midriff being just bare skin, and perhaps another hairstyle, maybe cropped or something. I think the hair shouldn't be pinned up in any such way (as that gives a more formal impression and a less spirited/lively/outgoing feel) but perhaps it could do to be longer.
The name is just a femininization of "peppy" that popped into my head while I was at work. If you like it, take it, if not, who cares. Not too attached to it.
Anyway, at least this is a start for the meeting tomorrow =\
I thought it came out pretty well.

We could have two mascots, the Osu! logo (with a top hat if people really want it) for the male mascot and the anime girl as the female mascot. Why settle for one when you can go for two? 
I'm thinking the Osu logo can be like the Target people in the Target ads (peppy should know what I'm talking about).

Any idea for legs? I did not draw them, but I was thinking knee-high boots, with a buckle design on the foot part of the boot with a rhythm panel on the top of it. I didn't draw it primarily because I fucking SUCK at drawing non-stylized feet.
The hand (front) only looks like a hand front because I spent like 20 minutes on that alone (I'm also terrible with hands but that one turned out alright after enough redrawing) but feet oh lord.

I didn't mention this, but your work is nothing short of awesome @ kage__7.
Seconded, kage__7 is teh hax at drawing. You should try finishing off awp's sketch, since I don't think he included a face or hands.
Some small hair clips maybe? You could go over the top and make like an osu-raver :P

How about a slider for a belt or sash or scarf or something? Head/hair accessories would also be nice; it looks a little plain atm

While the osu buttons are a nice touch, I think they're too small and subtle. I think it'd be better to replace them with something that'd be visible during gameplay, like a big pendant or something similar.
A pendant/necklace of the osu button sounds like a good idea, but remember we can't go overboard with osu buttons.
Yeah. I'm suggesting one, big Osu button instead of a variety of small ones.Echo49 wrote:

Also to expand on that thinking, leave the "osu!" off the button in my opinion - I imagine it'd look REALLY tacky.

The general anatomy feels a bit off. I think it would be really beneficial if you used references a la nude models (and let's keep it serious in this thread) as well as human skeletons. ALSO YOUR HANDS LOOK PRETTY DAMN GOOD APART FROM THE THUMB BEING TOO PULLED BACK/SMALL MAYBE. Proportions feel good but the torso is far too flat.
Also breasts are too high up; collarbones, anyone?

It would help if you drew a picture like that with a front view, and one with a left view, as I could use them while modeling. :/
It makes me sound a bit dodgy but slimmer legs and a bigger butt would probably work better :P

I don't think Lolginer actually needs a rendered image (right?), just basically an inked outline similar to what you were doing in your previous image. Just so we don't get the wrong idea and use up unnecessary energy.MOOMANiBE wrote:

Yeah, it's just that when you're drawing for a model you have to make absolutely sure that the proportions are the same down to the finest details in both directions, otherwise problems start cropping up for the modeler. It takes a bit, which is why I'm waiting ^_^;;awp wrote:

Indeed, first 2 characters aren't relevant but 3rd looks pretty fitting for osu!
