New Maleria Quest Shop Items

Okay I know this has already been stated, and I'm NOT hating on the artist. BUT I'm going to post my opinion...One, the nose is just too large and the bridge of it needs adjusting. Second the eyes, I loved how she had no pupils before the update. It seemed perfect and added to the overall "fear factor" she had going (being an evil goddess and all). Besides, it was unique. Her old form was evil but gorgeous which would make sense since she IS a goddess, but if the nose was fixed, I think she'd be beautiful. Also, I've looked over some the re-draws/edits in the previous comments, and they present very good ideas.

everyone is complaining about revamped Maleria and Im thinking she looks hot as hell. I love masculine looking chicks, especially if they are....ahem...EVIL.

June 10, 2014, 3:18 pm by

Besides...just because she's the evil dark goddess doesn't mean she has to look like the wicked witch of the west. There are some VERY hot looking evil villains out there! Lori Quaid from Total Recall, Maddison Lee - Charlie's Angels Full Throttle (Demi Moore), Baroness - G.I. Joe the Rise of Cobra (Sienna Miller), TX - Terminator 3 Rise of the Machines (Kristanna Loken), Dr. Julia Harris - Horrible Bosses (Jennifer Aniston), Regina George - Mean Girls (Rachel McAddams), Xenia Onatopp - Goldeneye (Famke Janssen), Sil - Species (Natasha Henstridge), Jennifer Check - Jennifer's Body (Megan Fox), Catherine Tramell - Basic Instinct (Sharon Stone)...I could go on. So Maleria has just as much right being a hot, sexy, evil bitch as the next evil villain ;)

Glory: The problem with the side boobs is that the line suggests that Mal is queen of the GigaTits. Look:

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/awg8NuK.png[/IMG]

DAYMN SON!

Again, it doesn't help that the angle, all the angles, are just wrong on this piece. Her left (our right) eye is wayyy too far back up on her head,--I haven't seen anatomy this questionable since Hellsing Ultimate XD--the way her nose is angled makes me think her snoze could rival Waluigi's if looked at from the side or headon; she's supposed to be looking at us from the side in moderate disgust because she's mean like that but looking at the body, it's really contorted. Her lower half seems to be facing towards us, the torso's facing away, her tits are aimed at us instead of facing the same way as the rest of the torso and her arms'n'shoulders are drawn on an angle half facing us, while her neck is clearly straight despite her head being turned, looking straight at us.

sdjbask It's a mess. Not to mention those wings... Ugh. Please fix the wings or at least, don't redraw the item/wardobe poses to match because as it is, no one's going to use those wings if they look like hers.

Now for some disclaimers: -What's really hurting Maleria are the angles of this piece. They're all wrong. -I have nothing against big titties or big noses. (I'd be a bit of a hypocrite if I did, seeing as I have both.)

Also, I have nothing against sexual or sexy characters but it's a rather dramatic change to go from a modest D to Triple G overnight.
As for the nose being too large, I actually disagree. Having a broad and proud English Nose myself, so I'm fine with that, but, like I said, the angle is all wrong. From how her face is facing us, it should be more slender and higher up. I know from experience my nose looks "normal" or "pretty" at such an angle.

However, unless other NPC's--that are not male--are going to have such appearances in the future, I have to protest the use of it here because it promotes a villainous stereotype that villains are ugly and/or, bad/evil women are manly.

Also the misogyny in these posts. XD Way to make me feel like shit for existing guys! (FYI: I happen to look like her so... Thanks for all this. XD)

June 10, 2014, 3:14 pm by

To me she looks like she has Link from Ocarina of Time's nose, specifically one image where he's hanging off a ledge in the guide book. If it was in her old art, fine, but it doesn't seem like it was. it is an.. interesting characteristic, but it looks so... manly. The art style is great, the revamp is wonderful, but when you change the expression or minute aspects of someone's face that you've been so used to, it's hard to get used to the change. I'm sorry but, she's being adblocked like Cinthia's image so it won't bother me and I won't complain beyond this.

June 10, 2014, 3:13 pm by

Actually Muerte I'm mad at you because you're doing a better Sailor Saturn cosplay than me. Let's fight.

June 10, 2014, 3:11 pm by

Snorts Oh, Kilala. I don't need to change my language. By no means does swearing make anybody less of anything, let alone a gosh damned 'lady.' If you honestly believe something so childish, you need to get off the internet. Oh, probably shouldn't say that, you'll take it literally. Also, I'm male. I don't give two craps to look or seem like a pretentious ~~~lady~~~ ... Ever.

June 10, 2014, 3:11 pm by

Oh, and I forgot about that side boob line... I think it looks kind of strange. And when I look at it again, it looks like she just has one big boob. o.o

June 10, 2014, 3:10 pm by

Kilala I know you want to sound righteously indignant but honestly you're just being condescending and fussy. Everybody needs to relax.

June 10, 2014, 3:04 pm by

CONTROVERSY.

I personally don't like the revamp either, the nose looks undefined, the hands are too big, I can't figure out /how/ she's standing, the expression feels off, the wings look droopy, her neck looks like it's floating, the shoulders seem wrong and it looks like she has one boob. Honestly, it's all wrong. Mostly anatomically; to hell with 'she looks like a dude', she looks like she has a joint disorder of some sorts.

BUT, I'll get used to this.I highly doubt they'll change it back. So I'll make do. As we all should. (And if I really don't like it, I can use adblock to block the image. So whatever.)

June 10, 2014, 3:03 pm by

I do find her nose odd, but all it could use to make it a bit more natural/less obstructive would be a very slight dip nearish the tip like what you see in the photo Muerte posted. I agree with Muerte on that side boob line o_O

June 10, 2014, 3:00 pm by

Wow. Maleria looks a bit more evil (like she's supposed to be). I think the nose could have been better, maybe not just a straight line. Yes, the wings would look better if they were darker. And the aura is a little too solid, but that doesn't matter as much to me. But overall, I like the new Maleria.

June 10, 2014, 3:00 pm by

The boob line looks a little too far behind her chest, if that makes sense? BUT HOT DAMN. She looks fantastic! I actually like the nose. She would look too "pretty" with a little dainty nose!! I love the wings. They look beautiful :) The eyes are definitely throwing me off, but just because she has pupils now I think. Idk if I like it, it always seemed so badass to me. ALSO HOLY CHEESE HER HAIR IS ABSOLUTELY TO DIE FOR LIKE I THINK IM GOING TO GO DIE NOW??

June 10, 2014, 2:57 pm by

Muerte, Wow you really could work on your language, could you? But that's just what I personally think. Ladies just don't have such foul language. But then again, that's how I was brought up. Doesn't really mater, that's just my opinion, you could think other wise and that's perfectly fine. shrugs

My point is, EVERYONE is entitled to their OWN opinions. Some people are going to think she's gorgeous and nothing is wrong with her revamp, some people are going to think she needs a few changes, and others are just going to flat out dislike it and hate it till the end of the earth. But that's how they personally feel and no one should be bashing another's opinions and think their opinion matters the most. All I'm saying (and was TRYING to get across) is just respect each other's opinions. That's really all.

June 10, 2014, 2:57 pm by

I don't see a problem with the side boob, considering she is not wearing a bra, and is crossing her arms. I just tried it myself in the bathroom mirror, and the line goes to around the same spot. Sure my bosom is on the larger side, but what's wrong with Maleria being busty?

June 10, 2014, 2:53 pm by

LOVE Maleria's new look! Although I feel the wings could have a bit more depth to them - more darker shading. But even without that, I love how her face looks and all the new items are great!

June 10, 2014, 2:42 pm by

Well fuck my ass and call me slutty, Kilala. I'll get to work on my language as soon as I find my fucks to give.

For the record, if you would read over what I said before I did not tell people not to complain. Not even once. You may read it that way, but by no means did I say that.

June 10, 2014, 2:40 pm by

Her eyes were always gray? o,o Just dropping by to ask... is there such thing as custom css that could be used to replace images? I'd still prefer to see the older image wherever she pops up but I'm not sure how to do that on chrome.

June 10, 2014, 2:37 pm by

Some people around here could really work on their language. And yeah, Muerte you're one that I'm talking about. Anyway, I don't think it's the size of the nose, just the way it looks. It could have had some curve to it, like how Wolf_spirit showed in her example. Also personally I also think its her lips and claws that make her look many to me. Her claws could have been more small and dainty like in her old revamp instead of being large. But other than her facial area and her claws, (like I mentioned before) the rest of her looks great.

And also, I got a problem with people who are telling others not to complain about something, yet they are complaining about something their own selves. Like you, Muerte. You're telling people that her nose is fine, yet you seem to have a problem with her wings and eyes being gray? Everyone has a right to have a different opinion about something; some people love her revamp and others don't. Not everyone is going to like the same thing. Just like you don't like her wings and eyes being randomly gray, some people tend to not like her nose.

June 10, 2014, 2:29 pm by

I like the fact that she doesn't look dainty and lady-like anymore. She's the Dark Goddess guys... She doesn't give a shit about looking nice for people. I love this revamp and her nose looks fine. It fits her character perfectly. Like others have said before, she looks like the wicked witch. It's great. xD I do want to say that the aura looks a bit cartoonish. Maybe it would look better if the lines weren't so sharp but misty.

June 10, 2014, 2:26 pm by

While her nose is very different, it's fine you fuckheads. Subeta needs more diversity in their characters. However, I cannot get behind her wings. Or her eyes randomly changing to gray. Or that sideboob ? Even if her boobs were G's, that line wouldn't be that far back. Unless her torso is shockingly thin compared to the rest of her body, which ow I am sorry.

Quick note: I am fine with sideboobs. I would be fine if she had been done practically topless (so long as it were done before the revamp as well). It's just that the line is too long.

June 10, 2014, 2:22 pm by

The feather shoulder covers totally reminded me of Jon Snow.. haha so you're not the only one.. xD GoT items will always be loved <3

Also.. love the new look.. gives her more character.. and shows that even if you dont have a small nose.. yesh.. you can still look gorgeous <3

June 10, 2014, 2:15 pm by

So. Am I the only one who looked at the cape/shoulder pads and thought, "You know nothing, Jon Snow"

June 10, 2014, 2:14 pm by

Hehe, she totally has tbe big honker that runs in my family! Go Maleria! I didb't even notice the boob-line until someone freaked out. Seriously? Freaking out about the curve of aboob now? What a new low for decency-whining.

June 10, 2014, 2:08 pm by

Her nose is fine! Stop fussing with her nose!

June 10, 2014, 2:07 pm by

Ohh Maleria you're looking mighty evil! Excellent job on the revamp! I hope they don't make any more changes to her (or her nose)

June 10, 2014, 2:05 pm by

Played around a bit more and gave her a set of more defined lips along with the nose:

giggles Personally I think she looks fit to kill now XD

June 10, 2014, 1:59 pm by

There are noses in all different shapes & sizes. Some of those shapes being straight & triangular rather than a more "dainty" curved shape. Her nose/face reminds me somewhat of Annie's from AOT.â™¥

June 10, 2014, 1:58 pm by

She looks like Annie Leonhardt is doing a Maleria cosplay.
Is it just me, or does she look pregnant?

June 10, 2014, 1:48 pm by

I agree with Democrat. It needs shape of some sort. If it had a cute curve to it instead of it being just so straight it'd probably look a lot better.

I actually played around in Photoshop just a tiny bit and came up with the following (one in regular size and one in larger format to see the shape more easily):

Possible Nose Suggestion[/center]]

It's still a larger nose but there's some shape to it instead of there being literally no shape, just a triangle.

June 10, 2014, 1:46 pm by

I cannot lie. I think she is sexier than both the sqb and news reporter lady! Yeah i said it! I also wonder if the people complaining are the same that complained about the toy and kitchen quest npcs revamps. Or maybe they dont ajust well to change and tried to find something they could say it was instead. Idk.

June 10, 2014, 1:40 pm by

Yeah, guysâ€¦ How about commenting the art instead of other people's opinions?

Personally, I think the revamp is okay. Not hating it, not loving it.

June 10, 2014, 1:37 pm by

We are all entitled to our own opinion about something. People just don't have to be rude about it. Me personally, I don't like the revamp, only because well, to me (personally) she looks rather manly. I mean her wings are beautiful, and her hair is nice and so is the rest of her appearance, but her face just looks a bit manly and her claws could have been more..I don't know, petite and dainty? I guess I feel this way because I'm such a girly girl. Not all women are girly girls so others wont find a thing wrong with her revamp. I just don't like her face.

On the other hand, great new items c:

June 10, 2014, 1:34 pm by

Damn girl you look good.

June 10, 2014, 1:34 pm by

I really love it! Now for the light goddesses revamp:B

June 10, 2014, 1:33 pm by

I adore her distinctive look, she's no longer generic and anime. She doesn't look like all of the NPCs anymore. I love it.

I do find the people calling her manish offensive though. People come in all shapes and sizes, lay off the insults.

June 10, 2014, 1:24 pm by

Wolf_Spirit, she had a really generic face before. if you kept the same facial features from old art, we'd end up with a lot of same-facey npcs which personally i don't want.

also, i can't help but noticed that's hardly a point anyone has been bringing up. rather, it's been a lot of immature and frankly gross comments calling her 'manly' and everything. so, i can't honestly believe it's about that rather then just gross, misogynistic beauty standards.

June 10, 2014, 1:22 pm by

It's not the size of the nose that bothers me, just that it looks so...flat. It needs some shape, or shading, or something, cause right now it looks like a triangle.

June 10, 2014, 1:17 pm by

York - it's because she never had one to begin with. Her nose was tiny and sexy. It just really changes her whole look and makes her look, well, awful. :x

If she had one initially, I don't think there would've been as much issue with it.

June 10, 2014, 1:16 pm by

I think she looks fantastic. This is the first NPC revamp I have liked in a really long time. I enjoy her big nose -- not everyone looks the same, you know? People were complaining about Subeta art becoming too cute and now you're upset because she isn't "cute." I really love this. Shading, proportions, line widths. It's all fantastic. AMAZING job, artists.

June 10, 2014, 1:15 pm by

mostly digging this revamp! i love the face. not sure what all the complaints about the nose are. should all women be baby faced with little buttons noses? that's silly. the only really big glaring detail i don't like is the evil aura, it looks a little strange to me.

June 10, 2014, 1:15 pm by

All in favour of a name change to Man-eria...?

June 10, 2014, 1:14 pm by

Eh, so she has a big nose. A lot of people have big noses. I actually quite like her revamp. She's what we'd call "a handsome woman."

June 10, 2014, 1:14 pm by

In her old image she had a sexy, small, little turned-up nose. Now it's huge and manly and ugly XS

June 10, 2014, 1:11 pm by

She uh... looks like a man.

June 10, 2014, 1:09 pm by

I like her new look all except for her nose. I find it way too big. Makes her look male instead of female :x She's lost her evil elegance with that huge nose :(

June 10, 2014, 1:02 pm by

Not sure if you were talking to me or not, but still that seemed a little rude.

If you were talking to me, then I don't have a problem with people hating her new look, I just said I don't understand it. People are allowed to have opinions, no one is right or wrong.

June 10, 2014, 12:58 pm by

what's wrong with a little sideboob ? girl should be able to flaunt what she got.
