Not sure how to go about this, but I posted my fan redesign of Vyper on reddit few hours ago and it seems the post exploded? This is the most liked post on my 4 y.o. account, and I am absolutely baffled and feel very appreciated also. Someone suggested I should put it up on the forums, so I guess I am doing that. Hope that's okay!
I'll explain things I changed and why, idk, maybe it will be useful, since people seemed to like it.
1. I wanted to keep her as similar to her original design as possible. Obviously it's not mandatory when doing redesigns, but the current version has that trashy girl failure "vibe" that I really don't want to go away. So color scheme, markings, spikes - I left them basically unchanged. I did saw that one wip design leak on the wiki, and I really don't like the "cobra" version of her. It looses all the personality it had, at least in my opinion (and few other people on reddit, since I saw comments about it as well)
2. Legs begone - no brainer, she's a snake and I'm almost 75% sure her official redesign, whatever it will be, will lack legs too. Also a longer neck, because... snake. The only question that remains is jumping? But I'm sure it's possible to kinda bullshit the animation to make her jump and look somewhat believable?
3. Outfit - I know she is not in prison anymore, but it seems to be an integral part of her. She mentions it a lot, other characters mention it as well. Thus the prison jumpsuit, chains, and the tats - I wanted them to be as trashy and cheesy as possible. Just whatever a wannabe gangsta girl would tattoo on herself while in prison and think she's the shit now.
4. Gun - Changed it to a scorpion because it looks more ratatata to me, that's all!
