So some of you will know, I really liked using Soul Calibur 3 to make Simpsons characters. (and later on, Venture Bros and Futurama characters) With the sequel fast approaching (comes out over here on Friday!) I've started building my character list of who to recreate!

Any suggestions of who to add? Or what style to give to who? I have 50 slots, and 37 decided on now. Heres the full list.


Simpsons characters
Homer (Hammer), Dancing Homer (Voldo)
Marge (Chinese Blade)
Bart (Broadsword), Bartman (Staff), Bart-chan (Rapier R)
Lisa (Sword/Shield C), Lady Simpson (Halberd), The Angel (Scythe)
Maggie (Rapier A), Nightmaggie (Dark Sword)
Milhouse (Chinese Sword), Thrillhouse (Chain Sword)
Nelson (Great Axe)
Allison (Sword/Shield S), Lady Taylor (Sword/Spear)
Jessica (Umbrella), Lovejoy-sama (Ninja Daggers)

My RPG characters
Hineko (Staff), Adult Hineko (Numchuck), Berserk Hineko (Axe/Shield)
Magpie (Rapier A)

TIS characters
Bart Bouvier (Duel Swords)
Samantha Wiggum (Katana M)
Mr. Muntz (Tonfa)

Venture Brothers
Monarch (?)
Dr Girlfriend (?)
Brock Samson (Chinese Sword)
Molotov (?)
Dr Venture (?)
Dr Orpheus (Staff? Scythe?)

Futurama Characters
Fry (Broadsword), Captain Yesterday (Katana Y), Phillipa (Rapier R)
Leela (?), Clobberella (?)
Amy (Hoop)
Zapp (Whatever has the highest kicks)


Anybody got any ideas what characters I should add, or what to put in the ? slots? Here's the full list of weapon styles available.

Rapier (Rapier A=Amy, Rapier R=Raphael)
Axe (Astaroth)
Sword/Shield (C=Cassandra, S=Sophitia)
Dual Swords (Cervantes)
Sword/Spear (Hilde)
Chain Sword (Ivy)
Staff (Kilik)
Axe/Shield (Lizardman)
Numchucks (Maxi)
Katana (M=Mitsurugi, Y=Yoshimitsu)
Dark Sword (Nightmare)
Hammer (Rock)
Glaive (Seong Mi-na)
Umbrella (Setsuka)
Broadsword (Siegfried)
Daggers (Taki)
Tonfa (Talim)
Hoop (Tira)
Claws (Voldo)
Chinese Blade (Xianghua)
Chinese Sword (Yun-seong)
Scythe (Zasalamel)

... I'm looking forward to this a little too much.

Off the top of my head, Patty and Selma. Patty'd have a large blunt instrument and if you still have that lizard-ribcage thing it'd be perfect for Selma.

It could well have been a different game, but I remember a long red-and green spikey thing. It looked like someone had cracked open a Komodo dragon.

I think the weapon Beb talks about is called a Wave Sword. Some of them looked like parts of a ribcage.

EDIT: OK, crossposting.

I think some of those Japanese card-playing teenagers...

Sorry, but it doesn't look like the wave swords are coming back. Neither are the tamborines, dagger/bomb, or extendable staffs.

Re: Suggestions. Patty and Selma could be made, but there's no option for "fat" or "heavy women" AFAIK, though there are now body sliders. It may be possible. I'd be reluctant to give up two character slots for two near-identical characters though, maybe. As for the card-players... it's a possibility, a strong one.

Added Mara to the list. How could I forget? Why can't I forget?

Oh, now they add body sliders. Now that they're only releasing SC4 on the two next-gen systems I don't have. No fair.

Long story short, the game is good, though it doesn't have all the character creation items I was hoping for.

One question - should Milhouse have a crappy moustache? No way to make them look young, so settliong for teens.

Also, I have MArge and Mara dressed almost identically. (hard to differentiate them) Is this good?

Finally managed to get my video capture card "working," if such a thing can ever truly be claimed. It's past 2AM here and I'm knackered, so this will only be one preview picture.



Low res and nasty, but you should probably be able to make a few things out... if any of these interest you, I'll get some closeups tomorrow.


1: Homer
2: Marge
3: Bart
4: Lisa
5: Maggie
6: Allison
7: Jessica
8: Milhouse
9: Nelson
10: Mara
11: Lady Simpson
12: The Angel
13: Samantha Wiggum
14: Bart Bouvier
15: Bartman
16: Bart-chan
17: Nightmaggie
18: Dancin' Homer
19: Magpie
20: Hineko
21: Mad Hineko
22: Lady Taylor
23: Lovejoy-sama


If anyone knows of a nice inexpensive and high quality video capture device, I'd like to hear about it. I'd probably get better quality with a camcorder pointed at the screen...

Found a slightly better way to capture pics. Here are some pictures.


HOMER


Fairly easy to make, but crippled because you still can't make fat characters. High physique and low muscularity was the best I could do. Workers shirt, slacks. Rock's moveset, because he should be slow and lumbering.
Personal satisfaction rating: 5/10

MARGE


Sadly, that's the tallest hair available. (apart from the afro, but... no.) Unfortunately there's only one variety of strapless dress now, so if I want to differentiate Lisa and Marge, I need to give her something almost-strapless. Xianghua's moveset.
Personal satisfaction rating: 6/10, would be higher if I could get her a strapless dress.

BART


Pretty good. There's not really any way to make a non-muscular male character, but this is OK IMO. The surfboard is Siegfried's joke weapon.
Personal satisfaction rating: 8/10

LISA


There's only one strapless dress option in the game this time, and Lisa gets it. Annoying that I can't mix and match dress tops and bottoms anymore, as I'd rather give her a longer skirt. But I think this one looks pretty good! Cassandra's moveset.
Personal satisfaction rating: 8/10

MAGGIE


Naturally, it's impossible to make her baby sized, and there are no blue baggies. (though the Kitty suit comes close, probably... should check that out) So this takes a bit more inspiration. I think I like how this came out. The purple comes from her implementation in SC3 where I used the same colours. Amy's moves.
Personal satisfaction rating: 7/10
