Question - Ermac Could this Ermac fan-art by known NRS Senior Artist be a taste of what we could expect in MKX?

[Pterodactyl]

people are complaining about him not looking like a ninja but wanting him to look like a mummy? lolwut
he's always been a tk/magic user plus his mk9 alt was a sorcerer look so this is right up his alley and fits him well not to mention its just better than every other costume its not a basic ninja pallette, did the people who hate this hate scorpions injustice look because it wasnt ninja enough? lmao

Since when was this a mummy?

*facepalm*
you should actually read my post i specifically said this was a sorcerer look lol

 

[Pterodactyl]

What i'm saying is, no one is specifically requesting his MK9 main costume, so your mummy jab is irrelevant.

That alt is what people want more of, or at least an updated/improved version.

Not raggedy andy up there.

When has an evil sorcerer ever been covered in torn up 17th/18th century garb and an excessive amount of belt straps?

The difference is that his MK9 sorcerer alt looks good.
Also Injustice Scorpion looked ass because he looks like a fucking banana.

I actually liked the Injustice Scorpion. It gave it the DC look. Would I want it in an actual MK game? Not likely, but for the game he was showcased in, it fit really well in my opinion.

 

[Pterodactyl]

I thought it looked cool in concept, but terrible in execution.

The hood, mask, and hooking stinger swords were badass, i'd like those to return at some point.

Add buckles and straps. Make the hat a hood. Add a little red. There you have it.


EDIT: There's actually a bit more, but if you're trying to say you're not seeing any resemblance, you're either not looking, or you're trying to fool yourself, lol.

You do realize we mean he looks Scarecrow esque, and not exactly like Scarecrow, right?

yeah just make everyone's costume look like mk9 thats the way to keep up the progression of the game

you forgot change the gloves give him shoes take the bag off his head and give him a mask/wraps
but hey youre entitled to your opinions and allowed to be as nitpicky as you want lol

I disagree with that. The reason I don't like some fighting games is because they don't change the characters costumes (yes, I like change too for those that are trying to argue they don't change costumes). If you keep them the same, it'll eventually get boring and take away the surprise and uniqueness of every game with that character that follows.

i saw scarecrow reject not scarecrow esque lol but either way sure its your opinion

 

[Pterodactyl]

No, make everyone's costumes fit the actual characters, their histories, their skills, and their stories.

Updating and improving MK9 designs is a way of doing that, but it isn't the only way.

Subzero looks great, from what we can see in the CG trailer,

If he's made of souls, does that mean he'll be immune to x-rays?

 

[Brutal Chimney]

rather it look MK than DC just saying. can we just agree the pauldrons are rather ridiculous?

....You obviously didn't read the "There's actually a bit more, but if you're trying to say you're not seeing any resemblance" part. I like the costume by the way. I just don't like to try proving stuff that isn't clearly there. This costume clearly has resemblance to Scarecrow. I don't care who you are.

Esque definition:
In the style of, resembling.

Wouldn't a reject look in the style of, or resembling the source material?

I get that's a joke....but no. He had x-rays done to him last game

Aside from the argument, I figured you missed the part because I accidentally clicked "post reply" with my hand and had to edit it in
