SilverHazzes Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I have to say that Catbrows in my opinion seem to be very big. Maybe if they weren´t that large they would be cuter and they would be more original in terms of action. I mean, iagine that little thing jumping into your face and don´t letting you see nothing until you get rid of it or jumping into the face of your enemies to shred them. Anyway it´s just a suggestion that can even be taken as a joke =) . So what you people think about Katbrows size? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)spotscat Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 To me it seems like it sorta a one time use thing, consumable, like a energy restore, you place it on the ground and then its legs snap in half and all the enemies around you flinch and say "eww gross" and then you need to go find a new catbro egg and wait 12 hours for it to hatch.

EmptyDevil Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 The size is ok and not too big. It is a genetically engineered space cat, so it has to have something else in it too. The largest domestic cat i can think of in real life would be a savannah cat. Comparison: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kripion Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) I want ugly cat-like beast that tears griniers etc apart, bites heads off, hangs dead bodies on their own guts. How is that small and cute cat should full fil this role? it the end Warframe is about many ways of KILLING:P Edited May 30, 2015 by Kripion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHIR0B0N Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I don't really like its anatomy. Specifically the ribcage area and head. Generally the body will be larger at the front (ribcage) and slimmer at the back, here on the catbrow, it's reversed, and it kinda makes it look bad. And that small head, wtf.

I thought the same thing when I saw the legs so I did a rework of Mynki's design and added a bit more protection and bulked up the legs and face, I added reptile scales to the front to protect vitals from a front attack and barbs on it's back to protect it from being jumped on, see my rework below.

Morec0 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Now, I don't know ANYTHING about 3D design or animation, but what sticks out to me in the main image is the icon statement that says "basically fits Kubrow skeleton". Now, as far as I know, this MAY mean that it WILL be the same size as a Kubrow, or it may just be a reference to the notion that "Hey, we can use the skeleton we already have to work on animations and whatnot for these guys instead of having to start from scratch!" with them being able to grow or shrink the skeleton as needed. Is that something easily done?

Heh. I approve. Of course, the issue with scales that I had even when I was working with my concept was it kinda makes it difficult to see them working well with the current kubrow pattern sets which don't have scales on them. Harder to identify what will change of the scales when you add in a different gene masking kit and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendragon1951 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I would imagine any new skin would ignore the scales and fit anything that is indicated as flesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is cool but something doesn't need bulky legs to be strong or sturdy. Birds would be an example of a creature that appears fragile but definitely has tough bones and strong muscles. Hell a swan's bones are strong enough to break a human's bones in certain cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that something easily done? Yeah, it mainly means it can attach to the same animation skeleton as the Kubrow. From there it can be scaled up or down depending, but it will allow them to share animations with kubrow and save them a lot of time building a new skeleton from scratch.

Morec0 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I would imagine any new skin would ignore the scales and fit anything that is indicated as flesh And that makes sense, given that I assume the scales themselves will be colorable with any range of fur colorations. Still, I can't help but feel the presence of the scales would add a little difficulty to mapping on the fur colors. But I don't know for certain.

So, really we know little about it's actual size and whatnot at this point other than it will likely share running animations and other such things - I imagine idles will be made separate for it.

True enough but if you saw the original it just looked like the legs would not support the body they were attached to, plus if you want something that will protect you those legs just did not do it for me but after all these are just first concepts from Mynki:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bones can be surprisingly thick and durable, and the rest of the body's not that big. But like you said, it's not FINAL. There may be SOME beefing up, but I don't think it needs to be by much myself.

Repligon Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I really don't like those tiny legs. Real big cats usually have strong muscular legs, this is what makes their claws so deadly. Catbrow legs look as if they are going to break the moment they jump on enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djangofett Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 They are pretty much the same size as kubrows. So I have no problem with it. Unless they are fat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansDecatur Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I really think those Catbrows should be more looking like a Tiger. Or a Cheetah! Agile and fierce! Just an over-siced kitty doesnt seem ninja at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)witex25 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Personally i don't like them at all. I hate cats and now this catbrow thing. They should add something like zanuka\kubrow \dino rex mix but not the god dam n cats\peacock mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
