Description Just a little something I did for . I noticed that whenever someone did something like this, it was usually a 'Heroes vs. Villains' thing. I decided to do one, but focus more on the thought of Pre-Merge boots going against Post-Merge boots. When making the list, I told myself not to include any winners or anyone from Survivor: Fan Characters All Stars.

However, I ran into some problems with resizing the smaller sprites of Season 3, 4 and 5's character sheets to match the size of the revamped versions of seasons 1 and 2. If someone could tell me how to fix that, I can edit the picture and make the sprite resolution better.

Here's the list of dramatic changes I did for the characters.

Pre-Merge:

Audrey - I wanted to try spriting a straitjacket and knew that Audrey or Maria would be the only ones to wear it, and Maria was on All Stars.
Drake - Gave him a bigger goatee, mainly.
Ella - She mentioned in the comic that she'd ditch the parka if she could do it again, so...
Eugene - I got rid of his glasses and gave him contacts.
Lyle - I fooled around with his hair and got rid of his coat.
Miichelle - I changed her look to make her look more like she was from something like Wii Fit.
Suzanna - I cut her hair. Other than that and the costume change, I didn't really change much.
Trent - I didn't want to change him too much, so I just gave him a shirt with a big 9 on it.
Yoshia - The only thing I changed was her hairstyle.
Victor - Just the costume change. I kept his headphones because I thought they looked cool.

Post-Merge:

Brock - The biggest change was the loss of his headband.
Denise - Since she's apparently crazy (according to the cast), I figured Denise would be the only one of the bunch to make a drastic colour change to her hair.
Greg - You don't see it, but there's an Org. XIII symbol on the back of his shirt.
Gus - I gave him a full beard and threw a couple of medals onto his vest for the heck of it.
Kris - Other than her new hairstyle? Not a whole lot.
Lilly - She didn't want to dirty her good clothes again, so she just stole some from Reed.
Luke - Changed his outfit to get him to wear something more suitable for the contest and gave him a headband. The armour would have been hot.
Marty - Gave him a pair of pants and goggles like Daxter wears.
Rene - Changed her hair slightly and gave her an earring.
Spade - Like Luke, just gave him a more-suitable outfit.

Trent, Yoshia, Brock, Grge, Gus, and Kris coming back would be awesome, but I wouldn't be excited by anyone else.

Wow, Ella seems so much shorter without her Parka. Honestly my favorite is Rene in this picture, but Kris and Ella come in close second.

Really? I didn't change her height at all when I redesigned her. Maybe it just looks like she's shorter when in between two tall guys.

Where's Bessi lol I really would like to see her! I love Trent's shirt as number 9!

It was a toss up between her and Yoshia and I knew Bessi would be a pain to redesign.

I figured that I could reference Trent's obsession while still keeping his redesign slight.

Man, I am loving the outfits you gave everyone. You did a very nice work on these. I especially Audrey's outfit. Well, at least she doesn't have to complain about it being too cold.

Hearing about the Org XIII symbol on Greg's outfit made me realize, I needed to develop Greg's plot. Not his Survivor one but his plot involving Lexaeus.

No problem. I wanted to give new outfits to characters that hadn't been done yet and that led to me picking the majority of the Pre-Merge Tribe (and a few of the Post-Merge Tribe; no one's used Denise, Gus or Kris yet...).

Hey, you've always got your upcomign Survivor fic to expand on Greg's story a bit. It would be interesting to find out more about his relationship with Lexaeus.

If I had to guess for the Blurring. Photoshop doesnt really resize sprites well. So I resize all of the images I need in paint to keep the hard pixels.

And funny thing is. All Stars was originally going to be a Pre vs. Post Merge. But about half way through the planning Process I realized I was leaving out too many big players (And because someone who I told about it, blabbed it out) I went to a normal All Stars.

I think the Cast for the Pre Merge were the 4 for SFCAS, Audrey, Drake (Although replaced by Sin later), Eugene, Phil (Thinner), Mihoshi (Older), Cassie, and Bessi Bell.

Te best new outfits have to be in my opinion Kris (Fitting for her series), Drake, and Eugene (Love the look with the tie).

Thanks. I just fixed it. It looks a lot better now.

That's actually pretty interesting. I've always been a fan of pre-merge boots because I feel they could be expanded on more than the ones that last until the finale.

Seeing people like Mihoshi and Phil again would have been interesting considered that there wasn't really anything spectacular about them to begin with.

I really like Kris and Eugene's outfits as well. I wanted to give someone a tie and knew that either Lyle or Eugene could pull it off. I went with Eugene in the end.

(laughs) You certainly have been paying attention to the Evil Audrey, and where she would go...

Anyway, your alternate dimension version of a Survivor Fan Characters game looks really good! I can definetely see how Audrey would communicate with her tribe if this game happened...

Your clothes changes on Ella, Greg, Brock, Trent and Lilly are cool too! Awesome work on them!

I figured that Audrey would be a little mad that she lost the money she earned last time and the production crew doesn't want to take any chances.

Thanks. I like Lilly and Trent's outfits as well, but I think I'm more partial to Kris and Eugene.
