Description And you thought that last part would be the end of my hopes and dreams, huh? Silly-silly~
This final ride was just a very weird one, I don't want to speak of the previous fellow now is all. Mind anyone else.

But this, this was an even stranger story.

So, about a few days ago-- maybe even a week or so, I forget without looking at my image ref, I had a dream.
It was mixed with a few random things I cannot explain without involving a certain sibling of mine, but in the midst of it, there was another of those Smash dreams. You know, the ones where you "see" new faces on the roster.

Normally, I've seen things like, um... Marshtomp and the Cluefinders (I can explain if you ask, I swear).

But this, right after that latter thing that was been scarring me for weeks on end, was something different.
I saw Bayonetta, save for her being in her first design, on TV as my siblings and I watched a reveal. Of course, I was shouting in confusion-- I'm indifferent to almost every choice, so don't take this personally. And that was the end of the dream.

For some reason, that moment (like my OC Robin's dream was) stayed in my mind for quite a long while. And I could not get her out of my head, so I went to try learning to draw her , just to help curb the thought.

It wasn't until the 15th that I would actually see almost the very same thing before my eyes, and not while I was asleep. And from that, just from seeing that this dream I thought was a normal mixed thought in my head, I somehow broke down into tears, happily? I think.

I've never played her games, I hardly even know her, aside from the things a friend of mine has told me of this woman.
Honestly, I think maybe Bayonetta had done something-- maybe cast a spell to have me lead up to this feeling in the end. Either way, it still brought me to some strange sense of shock just to see her be revealed for Smash.

A vision or a simple cowinky-dink, it was some experience indeed. ( o _o);

So, that was basically my gist in Bayonetta's reveal.
A dream had me almost prepared for her arrival, almost because I still was not ready to see her, apparently.

Outside of that personal moment, a mature-rated lady-- in many ways than one-- was the one to make her way to Smash? That alone is even an experience to behold, and with that I still fear the "ideas" that come along with it.
Well, not like I'm one to make such images commonly in my artwork, it's not my thing. I'll try looking for other things to do instead.

As for Bayonetta herself, I always thought she looked exceptionally lovely. I'm glad they chose her 2nd design as the default, it's favorite of the two, her hair just looks a lot cleaner in strokes and whatnot~
And along with that previous practice of frills and long hair, mixed with the talk of seeing folks in dreams, it seriously felt like I was slowly preparing myself to work with this lady. I've been repeating that to myself because it kind of scares me.

Right, and I kind of omitted some details, like the accessories hanging from Bayonetta's outfit because they were kind of a handful to add and simply anywho. But I hope she still looks okay, overall.

Before I make another needless paragraph, I do wanna give my regards to everybuddy else, especially if you're feeling down for your vote not making the cut in the Ballot. Stuff like this, has always been a very nerve-wracking thing to dish out. And also, just because someone ain't in Smash doesn't mean you or I can't draw them, yes?
(Just let me do so on my own accord, if you've been wondering that latter thought.)

So, we should keep that into consideration after we decide to stop feeling to icky as we've been a few days ago.

Move along, right? It's what everyone tells me to do as well, so I thought I'd share the advice.

Perhaps that may have been due to some folks not being too strong in the shooter-genre, like myself. But I don' t have a problem with the game itself, the style-n-theme are very lovely.
I wouldn't have minded either of them being playable-- given, I'm deathly indifferent, I didn't even vote for anyone.

Yes, published by SEGA, otherwise the company that made her is Platinum Games.
So I felt like specifying that for her, at least just once. Consider it a personal preference to refer to her as such.
(Kinda like the copious FE folk are from Intelligent Systems, specifically)

Otherwise, for credit's sake-- like on the Smash site-- I will leave her off as SEGA.

She's a 3rd Party who's only about as old as Tsux is, so about 6-7 years old and thus fairly new to some extent.
I had been wanting to try making something nice for Bayonetta, so I'm glad I got a good opportunity with Smash!

WhoAteTheWaffles [2015-12-20 06:00:48 +0000 UTC]

Bayonetta, darling!

Honestly, I'm personally very excited for her to be in Smash 4 (gives me more reason to finally invest in a WiiU and Sm4sh). From a personality standpoint, her fits very well with the game. She's cheeky and playful with a tasteful amount of subtle sexual humor, which is in a nice contrast to the other women currently on the roster (unless Peach has a secret promiscuous side to her???). I also have to say i appreciate how they kept her dialogue true to her character for the game, especially for an E10+ title.

Fighting style? BLESS IT. Her combat in the original titles is very acrobat-esque (probably making up words... whoops), almost like taking the flexibility and agility of ZSS, the speed of Meta Knight, and giving her Fox's gun combos. It's all pulled together so well, and supposedly it's going to keep close to her fighting controls from her personal title in Sm4sh which will definitely make her an easy to use character for those who have played her games before. I have high hopes for he and the trailer looks promising~ (plus how they tied her into Kid Icarus's world was a nice touch)

MewKwota In reply to WhoAteTheWaffles [2015-12-20 07:24:27 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah, most definitely, she's brought some pretty interesting set of goods to the Smash table!
From the looks of her combo-based style, I'm sure she won't be suited for beginners. But it still wouldn't hurt to give her a try.

I think they gave her a very lovely presentation too, capturing her essence so well despite her very risky character!
Though, the first time I watched it, I missed half of the info because I was crying so hard from seeing her on-screen. ( ; v; )
And along with the quality of graphics on the WiiU, her models looks super beautiful. I'm so happy that I was able to draw her~

Truly captivating and alluring in that immensely good style as I've seen her be! Kamiya really hatches up with best characters. (->v<-) Β And got to say, your style adds this unique flair to it within that little SD'd feel.

And once again, that dream sounds so interesting. Maybe it's fate between you and Bayo to team up in this smashing fest? Heheh~

Aww, thank you so much~!
And to think that she and Dante have similar roots, indeed, it's so strange! But I can definitely see the similarities.
I just hoped that I could still capture her lovely face, even with my simplistic style!

I'm certain by the looks of her presentation, Bayonetta is going to be some tough cookie to master-- kinda Ryu and his good share of combos. Whether or not I'm able to even work her right with my hands is up to time, but I'd still see what'll come of it!

Amazing picture, as always~ 8D
And woah, that's one heck of a premonition!
I actually figured that the ballot would vote up a "sexy" female character, cause....well, a lot of people are like that. But I've heard she's a really good character for more than just her looks, so I'm pretty content~

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

MewKwota In reply to DucessaEva [2015-12-19 05:13:12 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah, no kidding. While I really think Bayonetta looks pretty and was real happy to draw her, I always have an underlying fear when drawing girls-n-women. Mostly, thanks to people who really have a... "hunger?" for these ladies. I don't dislike them, but I feel that every time I draw them-- even if they're just standing there-- someone is inherently thinking something off with them.

I really don't want to contribute to that, it's uncomfortable to me.
So this is often why I prefer drawing dudes, aside from it being in my pure interest, of course.

But it's funny too, my siblings and I had this idea, that Mr. Sakurai was probably going to pick three folks based on the Ballot, specifically:
- A 3rd Party
- A "Bias"
- A Waifu

It appears Bayonetta fit that last part just well, and while Cloud-n-Corrin have the other two covered respectively.

But thank you so much for taking the time to look at this pic~

RedBlueIsCool [2015-12-18 22:42:09 +0000 UTC]

Nice work. I'm glad Bayonetta is in being that that is the majority's choice (even if someone said that those aren't always accurate, it's still something). I only wish I had interest in at least one of the DLC characters (haven't play any of their games), but... saves my money at least.

I do understand why some people aren't happy with her inclusion, though. To say that it's no big deal since Snake was in prior, well, there is a difference to me actually. Snake in his games is still a protagonist fighting to help the world. As I understand it, there is no such redeeming value to anything Bayonetta does; and unlike villains who kill as a means to an end, she is actually a malicious murderer. (From what I hear) The line is fuzzy in terms in "fiendship" I suppose but I'd rather not play as a character (and that's why I don't do M-rated games) like that, and am glad she is DLC so I don't have to- to get all trophies in the standard game. But hey, it's no bother to me that other people get to play her.

Oh yeah, I did have a dream about a second Paper Mario about a day or so before I heard it was coming out. (Or maybe the same day, that was over a decade ago now) There may be something to that dream thing. Of course the dream I had, like all my dreams; was totally messed up... (Kinda hate my dreams)

MewKwota In reply to RedBlueIsCool [2015-12-19 05:20:09 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much~ ( ' v');

Ah right, it's kind of tough to describe Bayonetta's character, from what I at least read on her.
She basically like what we'd consider some femme fatale or something, just a kinda "bad gal" to some extent. Given the way people often perceive witches, plus this character most people make of folks of her "type", I wouldn't really be surprised.

Then again, if everyone was a "goody-goody", then things would just be too bland after a while.
(I guess that explains why people kept asking for villians, or just baddies, like K Rool. I'm not so sure myself. )

But of course, the decision to spend your money is all up to you, no obligation at all, right?
Not to mention, no one said you had to like every character either. I have a few folks that I can't even stand, but that's no one's business or bother. So, just do as you will of it.

If it helps, I have a huge amount of odd dreams in my end. Sometimes these sorts of things just happen because various thoughts in your head just end up mashing together, so I don't think it means any ill-will in your being.

Oh, well, normally I really don't feel so comfortable speaking my mind of these things, I worry I may hurt someone's feelings. ( " ~");
But it's kinda half-based on personal feelings with the other half as fighter-based stuff. I think the latter is quite obvious in the reasoning.

If I had to pick just one to name, it would have to be Palutena. Unfortunately.

I actually used to like her a lot, until she came to be associated with a lot of fanservice thanks to her Reveal Trailer. Mixed with some of the joking around from KI:Uprising, she started to get on my nerves more than I had hoped. So, as irrational as that may sound-- I won't deny that-- I just can't really stand seeing her as much as I used to.

It kinda makes me feel bad of it too, I don't see her the same way anymore, even if I wanted to think otherwise. ( . _.);
That being said, just because a character is not in my best interest never means I'd put them in any bad light to get back at them, especially with no reason. That's just hate art, then.

So, no hard feelings to anyone else who likes her. That's none of my business, just as my interests are no business to effect your own.
I apologize if what I said may feel have been a bit prickly.

To be fair, this isn't the first time a rated-M character has been put in Smash. That said, they're apparently toning down the amount of sex-appeal she does Β and make it less audacious... which I'm pretty sure will actually make her more sexy since there's less audacity to take refuge in .

But I think we can all agree we learned something very, very important in her reveal trailer.

Oh yeah, of course! I know Snake was of that similar caliber as well, and he had his fair amount of censorship-- mostly in the case of his lack of a handgun and all. I never meant to say she was the first, just that we've considered adding another one in.

Still, I did notice some of the cover-ups they had for Bayonetta, it doesn't give too much of her character away at all, so I'm sure we should still be fairly alright. I am looking forward to getting her this following February, too. ( ' v');

Your story reminds me of a dream I had once. I had applied to a school and hadn't heard an answer yet on if I had gotten in. I went to sleep. I dreamed of a man I never met before, and a strange room full of desks. Around a month or so later, I got word that I had gotten in and I went to do my interviews and all and meet the teachers. Upon meeting my math teacher, I realized I'd seen the room and the man before.
