But we have him to thank for the groundwork 

I respectfully disagree. I think Warframe's design is in a much worse place with Keith Thompson than it was with Mynki. Thompson has stripped away nearly everything that made the Grineer, Orokin, Sentient, and Tenno factions unique design-wise for something quite generic-looking. Fortunately he hasn't touched the Corpus for now.

Hmm really?and why  i may ask

If I have to hazard a guess, it could be because it "freed" the team from having a singular monotheistic design for the Warframes and Warframe in general, which is both a great blessing and a terrible curse.

Better? Better? Seriously better? If they could design proper symmetric pants for my Tenno I would say their okay.. But really their not better.

I agree , they are good yeah a bit more mainstream but not better

 

Also with the lore going on , the old design make sense , mutation ignoring symetry sound legit

even so i hated some of them at first cause , some of this have a beautifull ugliness , while some other are just perfectly perfect

That would be correct but my operator isn't wearing infested clothing

IDK...Ember Deluxe was the only chance Ember will ever officially escape from a mohawk aaaaaaand now it turned out to be another mohawk. Yes I know Tennogen but there's not a single OFFICIAL EMBER ARKWORK without the d@mn mohawk. (And Nyx too)

There was no chance they would make a skin that wasn't distinctly Ember or Nyx, something that includes bits like the "mohawk".

there was no chance when mynki was still with DE. As far as I remember the entire reason that gorgeous Ember delux skin was never made was because Mynki changed a bunch of stuff with the art, like including a mohawk.

Also, how does a flaming and smoking lava-esk skin not distinctly ember?

Without the mohawk, it looked like Nova.

Mynki was not the be all, end all of Art at DE. Even skipping over the other half of that stupid skin tempest in a teapot, so what if there were changes made? Why would that make them not do a design?

The frames' silhouettes are part of their identity. The mohawk is a big part of Ember's silhouette. Nyx's only real difference with Excal is the crest on her helmet.

This. I personally boy cotted the ember deluxe. I hate how she HAS TO HAVE that fu¢king mowak. 

Also, I personally don't like minki because he made Oberon... And I find his base skin SOOO damn ugly

IMO, Oberon Prime was a thematic @#&$-up - especially that God-awful helm.

He also did a few other skins - primed and otherwise - that arguably missed the mark. Yes, some of his design work was really interesting, but other designs left much to be desired. Mynki had talent for sure, but his designs were rather hit and miss.

It could be argued that Mynki pretty much had a stranglehold / to much influence on what designs wound up getting approved around there. That said, I feel his leaving was a good thing for all concerned.

Very true and well said.

Art is art, and saying that some design is bad is strictrly opinion.

And if a lot of people say that their opinion of a given skin / model is that it's bad for whatever reason, it stands to reason that not as many people will obtain said skin / model.

A smart move is generally to go with a design that seems to be popular with a given target audience. You stand to make more money that way.
