@Sarumaru: Love the male design. Fucking awesome, seriously. The female designs feel a bit standard to me, though - the second one posted, that is. First one I'm kind of on the line with. I don't exactly like the long hair, but other than that, I like some elements of the design. The legs, specifically. Granted they're pretty awesome pictures and rather pleasing to the eye, so bonus for posting them anyway~

I like Moom's a bit as well (yeah the face feels a bit strange - it's probably the nose, not that it matters from a DESIGN standpoint) but the waist without any sort of tail-end to flail and flow with dance moves makes me sad =( I liked that part of it.

The skirt is a good length though. I think it's important for the outfits to be designed with flow in mind. Knee-length skirts are a good way of accomplishing this, for example =3

Thanks awp! Speaking of which, here's another image that I drew which is -loosely- based on awp's idea (When I drew the first two chars, I did not bother reading through the thread). It's is a very rough sketch but you get the idea.

I like this new design, Sarumaru. I like the legwarmers in theory, but I can't help but think they make her look more like a Gundam, lol. I do like that we now seem to have some decent artists and I like that the designs are starting to converge into a solid idea. Keep tennis-ing the design back and forth until we all agree on something, that's what I say :)

Three things I "dislike" about this new draft:
-Actually writing "osu" on the circles looks a little tacky imo
-Skirt could do to be a BIT longer, almost to the knees?
-Face looks a little too serious/sure of herself/experienced?

It is pretty awesome though~

Love the leg-warmers as I said earlier, though they do look a bit exaggerated/big.

Random picture. Still no shoulders, weird-looking body, and still decapitated, but oh well. :>

I agree with the "osu" one but I think skirt and face are fine. Imo her arms and legs could be more thin though :P

edit: thighs and right forearm in particular

That is looking quite nice. The cartoon shader feels a bit overdone to me though...is it possible for the effects to be milder, so the model doesn't look as flat? I almost prefer the top-screen version.

Most JPop is sung by female vocalists I guess

plus osu! is inherently pink and a guy wearing pink, well, not something the fanbase wants to see dancing around.

THAT is awesome!

I'd criticize, but I can't find anything wrong with it, plus I'm in a state of lack-of-sleep.

... Seriously, awesome.

Freaking tempted to ask for Rule34, though. >_>

Also, LOL at the Rockman/Megaman edit. XD

Agreed on the skirt being fine, but the arms and legs shouldn't go any thinner, else she'll start looking too skinny.
The anatomy will look fake if they get thin. ;o;

I've thought about two things we might want to start thinking about for the mascot: A name and a voice. My first ideas are that we could name her after one of the Ouendan cheerleaders or Elite Beat Divas as homage, and I know several message boards where people do amateur voice acting for free. We'd need the usual countdown, a miss clip, and maybe some shouts at certain points as an extra whistle/finish.

I might have a cute voice for "pippi" (or whatever her name is) in mind... I just gotta run the idea by her. If not, I have other people in mind. Just give me a list of things to record and stuff.

There are 2 more details I'll have to add when I'm home again: The skirt, and the hair. I tried to create a skirt, but I can't simulate that newly-ironed look(I know what to do, it simply won't work), so is a more round-looking skirt OK?

Heres a pic of the mascot That i colored pixel by pixel in Paint.NET.
It was hard to do.

Also Some1 should make a guy mascot so we have a male gender version for our male players? Have twin mascots or something.
I think the male one should have like a blue Osu! themed outfit and also the girl's fingers should have been more sharp to be more anime girl like.

So yea. What do you need from my end? Its almost a given YES that my friend will help out. She has the perfect voice for Pippi, based on what I'm seeing.

For voice, start with:

Are you ready?
3
2
1
Go!

And some kind of "oomph!" or "oh no!" for combo break. And perhaps "We did it!" for when a song is cleared.

I like the girl awp but maybe it has to much pink.
I know that osu! also has a lot of pink but maybe a little of contrast would be good.

For the voice i look forward to hear something cool.

On the contrary, I think the pink adds the necessary touch to what is already present in the Osu! app.

Overall, I'd like to share my opinion: looking good so far!

Am I the only one who thinks that the cleavage is a bit much? It could easily be fixed by making the star one solid color.

A - it was originally designed for someone around the age of 17, where this sort of thing would be expected
B - in the chibi model, the inner star is pink because red is glaring
C - Pippi is known to be a bit of a tramp anyway~

She does fill that top quite a bit for a 15-year-old, what with the overlap and all. Pretty gifted mascot.

You'll thank us when she becomes legal~

Here's the voice samples and a readme about them inside.

Please let me know what you think! Tina and I can always re-record if we have to.

The only issues I had were that they sound to "airy." How do i iron those little air sound particle things out?

The recording is actually fairly clean, I thought. Also, I think the voice is possible, but needs re-recording.

My stance on it is, the voice could be a tad higher-sounding. Tighten the vocal chords a bit more. And the actual reading of the lines lacks the right emotion, it sounds a bit rushed, and the emphasis falls on the wrong places.

Applause is just a straight-up "we-did-it" and doesn't really feel excited or energetic. I picture Pippi jumping when she says this. Either stretch the We out (Weeeee~ DID IT!) or hook the "did" more (We DID it!)

combobreak's not too bad, I think maybe hook the No a bit more. Sound a bit more desperate, maybe.

Ready, counts, go - it almost sounds like it's in the reverse order. There's a real drop in the "One" - it sounds like the end of the sentence, when there's still "Go!" to go. Ready sounds more like a statement to me than a question, and I can't really pick up any distinct emphasis. Try saying "Are you ready?" and bob your head down at the "rea" (of ready) and back up at "dy" to see if you can feel the movement of it. Also, it might help to record the entire "Are you ready? Three, two, one, go!" all at once - it really sounds like each sound file was its own take, and feels a bit broken/jumbled.

readyLOL.wav - too much breath on the "ck" but other than that, <3

readyLOL2.wav - "Oss", not "oh sue"...also, is that your mouse clicking that I hear, Remdawg?

There is my "I have no regard for how this makes you feel" critique of take One. There's no reason we can't continue to work at it, right?

Try making exaggerated body movements when you say the lines. If you feel that you're there, that you're actually this character, it might come more naturally.

Also harass peppy to see what he thinks. And maybe LH, too.

She says "Are you ready?" way too quick, and the applause doesn't sound enthusiastic enough. The whole thing sounds really casual and not very appropriately bubbly, so you might want to re-record. As for the air sound issues, take each sound into Audacity and do the following:

-Highlight a 'silent' part of the line
-Choose Noise Removal from the Effect Tab
-Click Get Noise Profile.
-Highlight the whole sound.
-Choose Noise Removal again.
-Click Remove Noise. Voila!

I say take all this advice and have Tina do another round of recordings, but since the window is open for others, here's a list of demos for amateur voice actresses that do stuff like this, Flash animations, and fandubs for free. I think that Rina-chan and Mippa have good voices for the character.

That's what I thought, but she had to be somewhere very soon. I'll make note of that.

You want them all in one file? Ok then, i'm assuming you'll break them later.

Again, i realize she was rushing too much. There's a small personal issue going on that let to rushed voice acting. We're settling this soon.

The voice could work, but the pronunciation needs some work. Tina also seems to have a problem with high tones, although I mainly base this on the LOLs. Warming up for a minute or two by doing weird sounds with varied pitches, and using exaggerated mouth movements when recording the lines should help. The "Are you ready?" is way to quick and the 1, 2 and 3 in the countdown should all have the same pitch. Also, personally, I think the ending thing is a bad idea. And air problems aside, the quality is fine.

3ds is giving me hell. I've been stuck on the fucking skirt for DAYS. Not even asking for help on the Autodesk board seems to be of much help. <_>
But I'm close, I know it. I WILL make that damn nudist wear a skirt. >:[

You can't just model a belt and use some sort of cloth material type to just fold itself around her figure? Last I heard/saw/thought, 3DSMax6 could automate a bunch of stuff.

I've already modeled the belt, but the only way to make it look like the belt is holding the skirt in place is to put it IN the belt. That's where the Cloth modifier's lack of functions kills me. <.<
But I have an idea... o.o

Oh well, enough with the wristslitting. I have a non-corrupted file of the non-clothed body, so I should be able to remake it within an hour.

Wait a minute...
What does the hair look like from behind? Sarumaru's hairstyle looks like it's split in two, but wouldn't that make her bald in a small stripe at the back of her head?

So I have this picture here. I KNOW IT SUCKS, BTW. I just want to know how hard it sucks.

Failures I'm aware of:
  1. Skirt is ugly and goes through body (That belt is causing all kinds of problems, can has remove plz?)
  2. Shading glitches (That belt is causing all kinds of problems, can has remove plz?)
  3. No nose
  4. Very ugly hair
  5. Unnecessarily high-poly (That belt is causing all kinds of problems, can has remove plz?)
  6. Large breasts, long arms and legs
  7. Ugly armpits
  8. Ugly belt (plzzzzzzz?)
  9. Some things are missing
Don't worry about the lack of detail, textures will solve that problem. What I want to know is what I have to improve, and if that top looks fine.

Bullet form bitches

-Chin, or head in general, is too high up (isn't vertically long enough?).
-Face is way too flat. From this angle I can't see any cheekbones.
-Muscle tone on arms is basically absent (feels like tubes connected by blobs sort of).
-Fingers too fat and tubey
-Thumbs too thin
-Chest is too large (not just breast size, but overall has this broad-shouldered, muscular-ish build).
-Belt missing buckle (lol?).
-Hips/waist/ass lack definition
-Upper half of legs are thinner than lower half.

boot pix plz they look pretty awesome

I was trying to get it more anime-styled, which pretty much means flat face.

That's...not exactly true =x They still have depth and all that, it's just often implied via shading for 2D cartoons.

Yes, but that's what it looks like, and since the dancers won't have cartoon shading... <.<
I could decrease the flatness a bit, though.

That head's so tiny compared to the rest of the body! It makes her look buff and muscular instead of visually appealing.

Thanks for all the critique, but could ANYONE please answer my question? The top is currently a part of the body unlike in Sarumaru's drawing, is that fine?
unless she wears a very tight top, then it woud lack a bit of definition to the clothing (such as clothing folds/creases or the "Drapery effect" or whatever you call it)

In that case, I'll redo the top and the skirt (No belt this time, although I could make it look a bit like one). It'll take a while, but it will look great if I don't phail. <.<

The top is worn actually quite loosely - it's a size too large for her, so maybe you should keep that in mind when remodelling. Swoooooshy.

It's not actually a hole anymore - it's just a textured star. It was a hole for the 17 year old slut model, but she's been converted into a 15 year old sweetheart.

Tons, but I can't find any files. The problem is this: To add a nose, I'll have to add more edges to the face. However, this makes everything veeeery high-poly when I use Mesh Smooth. But if I remove all the unnecessary edges, the shading gets messed up, and the face will have lots of gray triangles on it. The only way to get around this is by making the nose a separate object, but this would make it look weird, as if it wasn't a part of the body.

Why are you using mesh smooth?

I thought this was going to be cell-shaded?
