Thanks. The pearl on the bellybutton + markings were just a little accessory to add flair since I find his upper body a bit plain with nothing but a seaweed acting like a scarf to hide Bayman's chest scar.

Markings are already enough to add the flair. The pearl bellybutton is just hhhhnnnggghhh, awh nevermind (/w\'')

The Wendigo Design looks amazing. you should defenetly choose it over the other two. Maby you could add blood stains to his mouth to make it seem like he just recently ate. It would also be awesome if you could give him red eyes and make his hands look more like claws.

Thank you for the reply Reiner! Looks like I'll be developing the Wendigo then (~^o^)~, and yes those suggestions will be on the next development sheet.

This is my entree. I think it is done but I am just going to live with it a few days before I submit it.

The inspiration is day of the dead. However the costume design is completely original. It is not based on anything. When designing it I wanted to create a costume that felt like it was made for the character and not just feel like the character was wearing a Halloween costume.

I don't think it will win but that is not may goal. My true goal is very carefully hidden somewhere in the image. Do you think you can spot it....... #DOAonPC.

DOA on PC would negate all costume ideas. Such cruel irony.

I can't quite tell. Is that gif suppose to mean you like my costume, don't like it, confused by it, or just scared of it. Just remember, it is a Holloween costume so feelings of uneasyness are a good thing.

Not fond of body piercings? Lol I guess I went overboard with making it look mermanesque. Ah well, can't make any revisions anymore since I already got it submitted.

The torn gap is such an awesome idea. It fits so well into the rough and tough look. maby you should add some holes into her pants too. your idea to cross out "Sweetest" is pretty funny. you should go for it. I still miss the boxer shorts from your original design though.
Boxer shorts?

And yeah I think the torn cap will look good in her char select and win poses

Yeah
your design for the first contest featured boxershorts or some kind off underwear that was sagging.

I think that this was a great idea because it made Mila look especially gangster. please add it again!

PS: have you decided on what to do considering the underboob issue.
It would be really cool to see your Mila costume win since she is by far my favorite character and your design is great. but it would also suck if you had to submit a costume you are not completly happy with.

I haven't. Still kinda trying different crop tops.

Also those were just loose jeans hanging lower than the sports underwear. No boxers.

And thanks! I still would a rather had my old design win over this bancho design but trying at it anyway. Since you can't resubmit I'm trying to take my time and slowly tweak the design, especially as its a variation of my old submission.

..looks like someone else redid their old design for this too lol. I see an updated green jsr outfit for mila again like last time. Looks kinda cool.

Really where did you see it. I'm a big Fan of everything considering mila ;)

so does this lower hanging jeans will return?
sorry that i keep bothering you with this but i thought that it looked so perfect :)
especially since you normaly only consider such a look with though looking guys from the street.

yeah to bad that the most revealing costumes seem to be the most popular in the community instand of the once that fit the character the best.

Id love to simply reuse the low hanging jeans again but I'm not sure it'd fit anymore.

And yeah that's why I was so bitter about last contest. None of the top voted outfits for mila fit her at all.

Well the theme of your costume is supposed to be rowdy and tough right?
I dont really see why it would not work.
what I'm not so surfe is if your original color scheme of icy blue and white is going to work. blue is a calming color which doesn't really fit with the costumes attitude. red is more aggresive and therefore more fitting.

ps: could you please post the link with the updated green jersey.
I'm kinda curious

True. I was gonna go with it maybe red hair with white coat.

Just thought about the classic coloring I tried for the outfit. So something like this, which would still be dynamic without being cooler colors.

Oh and this is it. It was on their Facebook page. Though it looks more like a redheaded Christie to be honest.

Oh man the more I see of or origanal design the more I'm starting to love it. to bad that you can't just copy it completly.
I still think that the low hanging Jeans would look awesome ;)
the red, yellow and black actually fit together very nicely.

WOW :/
You are totally right about it looking more like a christie costume.
I dont think mila would ever wear earrings and what is up with all the female gender-symbols everywhere?

I dunno but that's what I mean. Its outfits like that which will win, even though it doesn't fit the character at all.

Its frustrating that out of all the unlockable and dlc outfits available now, Milas C2 is still her best outfit. (I main the one with the towel but with the towel turned off though).

.I kinda wanna petition tn to make a patch allowing us to turn off her headgear on her other costumes. I would start maining her sports dlc if I could turn off that stupid visor.

@Argentus and @T Reiner, I overheard (or overread) your conversation and I'd like to chime in, if I may.
If Argentus is going for the bancho costume in the end, he should imho stay true to the look. That means no jeans or weird color schemes. Banchos are rebellious, gang leading high schoolers. So they are usually wearing Japanese school uniforms, that are sightly altered to their own tastes, showing off their rebellion against the extremely restricting school system and society in Japan, mostly in the 1960s. That's the time frame this special style originated.

The typical black or dark blue "gakuran" school uniforms. Note the pompadours XD :

That cap Argentus gave Mila, was usually also part of a boy's school uniform.

Note the back then typically very long skirts for girls:

Without the school uniform, it's not really a bancho costume anymore. I think, for a Halloween outfit one should be creative of course (and change it up a little), but also stay mostly true to the cliché. That's the one night everybody loves to fulfill a certain cliché. ;)
