[TALK] S.I.C. Thread Part Deux

Just got the e-mail from Yokatta:

SIC NEW Den-O Strike form has just arrived in the warehouse.

I see the hopper legs in a new light now. Hell, the whole OOO design.

c/o ryatwo...

These would be great in SIC format...

Yeah bro, that's what I meant with the whole "going to the extreme" of the SIC designs. I mean it's better to exaggerate the already known motifs in that way rather than just have a generic SIC looking figure in the form of Ando's recent works (along with the Double SIC).

Who did that art?

 

[Synch]

that is funny... I'm enjoying the heck out of 3Os but really hate the outfit designs ... I was just thinking that SIC styled we could maybe get some cool stuff out of it though

Same here I just emailed & asked for prices on liner form & zero form & kintaros & goah sets ! Time to finish off my deno! At least untill all that hopefully wonderfull new stuff we have seen the past few days starts to hit!

What are your overall thoughts on it?

Aside from the loose left ankle & toe piece, I'm very pleased with it. The sculpt is pretty neat, though doesn't stray too far from original design (would have been a worthy replacement for SHF Strike Form, if it were not for the forthcoming re-issue). And I love the size of it. Totally worth the money.

Having owned both the SHF and now SIC, I'd say I like the SHF a bit more, due to the more accurate sculpt and the sexier compound eyes. Can't wait for that re-issue.

But see with W, his design doesn't lend itself much to any creativity, or maybe it's just that I'm not that creative. But with OOO he has animalistic qualities that are perfect for SIC to go crazy with like you saw in that picture from pixiv.

Yeah I know, the problem for me is that it just ended up looking like the Shadowmoon armored looking SIC Hero Saga. It would have been ok if it were the CJX since it does have that "knight" theme going, but as plain CJ, I thought the sculptor shouldn't jump to that knight theme as of this point since it looks too bulky for the character for me.
