First of all, these are all
freaking long overdue and it is a real shame we still haven't seen more of the other
primary renders/concept art in HQ. That being said:
I am extremely happy and grateful that we (
finally) have gotten these pictures in HQ. They are absolutely awesome and glorious.
Thank you NRS! Now:
1) Most of them are very impressive, beautiful, and awesome.
2) Some of them are just meh and rather uninspired in the poses (ninjas look very similar) and detail.
3) A few of them are very strange in art style. The way they are drawn is not exactly what I'm used to see in MK (like Johnny's). I don't like that.
4) All the Kitana bashing is not surprising at all. With the current thread about
Kitana's bad portrayal plus the other ones about her costumes I'm feeling like it has become some kind of trend in the community.
5) Are there no official HQ
renders of the alternates like Sonya's render? (
(click me to see the HQ render picture of her alt)). Hopefully we'll some day see some like this.
6) I'm loving Sonya's render and that costume is most definitely one of my top favorites EVER. Can anyone make out the interesting reflection in her glasses? Is that a room?
....maybe Johnny's room? lol.
Awesome awesome pictures. I'm so happy we
finally got these (thanks NRS!) and I truly hope for the (extremely long overdue) release of the primary costume renders in all their huge HQ glory.
