And theres already dumb commenters "not approving" things.
I should know better than to peek in the comments there..Armchair developers always get a rise out of me.
Congrats, regardless. Pretty awesome art, and its cool to see it on kotaku!

Yeah, and guys... Ignore the typical "comment because i'm an attention whore, who feels the need to say something cynical on Kotaku". I see a lot of bashing simply because a ton of people on Kotaku seem to not understand what the term "re-design" is. Really, the results and every submission i've seen have truly been a testament to the talent you see here on Polycount. Absolutely great job everyone!
PS: Just remember Kotaku value's their cosplayers more than talented developers.

Haha fucking hell those Kotaku comments had me lol'ing pretty good. Some gems:
"Splotch some red on her and take off a limb, and I couldn't tell her from a resident evil victim. Also, Haggar piledriving a shark has never looked so blatantly homosexual. And that Akuma. Yeesh. I didn't realize Azuma was a horrific undead mutant discarded from a Gorrillaz album cover and smashed with an ugly-bat about 6 thousand times. Also, Mario ate Donkey Kong, I guess. Or at least two of them.
Yeah, these suck."
"Yuck. Someone please needs to explain the uncanny valley to these people.
Most of these are worse than a Zemekis mo-cap film."
"It's called critiquing. It's part of the process."
And finally...
"Too much hating. These fantastic submissions (and more found at polycount) deserve praise, not picky complaints from people that know nothing about game art."
I fucking love the comments. I really do. Now when you go back to your desks and get paid to make this SHITTY art for a living you can laugh your ass off at the irony of the comments. If only they knew you're the ones making the art to their beloved games.

It makes me really appreciate how civil and relatively professional people are in the game art forums. Sure, some threads get derailed, but it's nothing compared to forums full of random gamers.

Honestly, Kotaku has nothing going for it nowadays, so I don't see why you guys care about their commentators and journalists in anyway or form.
I mean honestly guys, you all did great work, last thing you should care about is the opinion about a bunch of ignorant buffoons on a site that is looser then the PSN Network on a jet engine on it's period.
There's a very good chance that I experienced MORE problems, then all the internet put together in the area of 3D. Talk about being original for once...

Haha, I guess the 8 year old who reviews Tron wasn't available again on that day?
