I can't imagine it's not the Silver Mantis spines seeing as they're already in game.
[/ QUOTE ]
But isn't Silver Mantis Thorns? So it would be something new.
Edit:
Nope they look to be something Different.

Yeah, quite different. The first time I saw her pop her spines out and [censored] my face with them I was in love.

Apart from Spines being able to use the geometry from Thorns, and Thorns being able to use the geometry from Spines (both of which can be colored), there will be at least one other set of alternate geometry/FX.

As for Martial Arts, the alternate animations we have right now are mainly punches. The idea was to provide you guys with a way to make the classic, fights with their fists and feet, super-hero that many have been asking for.

Hers are real close to the same placement of thorns. she just has a different pattern on her arms I think. Anyone that takes the thorn pattern and tint them that color will make it hard to tell them apart.

I have a feeling that Crane Kick and Foot Stomp alternate animations are renamed when you pick them.

It's just brilliant
Instead of making a whole new set for Brawling, Streetfight, whatever... all of which basically accomplish what Martial Arts already does, just change the Animations! Viola, my High Kicking Kane is now Bad Leeroy Brown
Curious as to what the Powers will be called with new Animations? Super Sucker Gut Punch can't still be called Crane Kick...

I've been suggesting this forever forever (for MA)...really, why get Streetfighting, when MA with different animation van work just as well.

Better, IMHO, because you can mix and match punches and kicks. I made the suggestion once, too! But BAB didn't like it. Probably because of the mechanics I suggested (duplicate, mutually exclusive powers with different animations), which would increase Castle and Company's workload. What we're getting is way better!

For shame BABs ... that you do not think to implement the Quivering Palm.
Or if you prefer to watch Kill Bill part 2 again ... watch The Bride kill her husband at the end of the movie ... after he walks 5 steps.
It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

Is that the steel-y spines that whats-her-face uses? Uh, Silver Mantis? I always thought that'd be a keen look for a spiky hero and/or villain...
[/ QUOTE ]
No. It never occurred to me that Silver mantis had spines. The ones I made are very basic, conical, metal spikes.
I am not a hotshot modeler/texture artist, so I prefer to work on the basic looking stuff that can accept a broad range of character concepts being projected on to it. My opinion is that the more specific and detailed you get with something like this, the more narrow it's potential for fitting a lot of character concepts become.
Similiar sort of philosophy for all of the shields and weapons I personally modeled. Except for the Rularuu stuff.
I agree with your philosophy.

Just remember, a few "detailed" "specific" things wouldn't hurt. You'd be surprised what we can do.

That may be dubious - other weapons have been excluded from our use because they were unique to an enemy.
Ex: Shadow Spider's broadsword ("Shadow Blade", or something like that) was added during Weapon Customization's initial pass, but was removed before it went live. To be honest, I didn't even know she had a broadsword, let alone that particular model.

Any chance on the alternate animations that you can set it to cycle between the two (or more), or choose at random at each time the power is used?

Right now, the tech doesn't work that way. It's more an issue with the VFX not syncing up with random animations, as we've had the ability to randomly or sequentially play multiple animations for a while.
It might be something we could do in the future, but very unlikely to happen for I16s launch.

Wouldn't that be similar to how you can spam Shadow Punch or Swipe, one time it uses the left hand and one time it uses the right hand? it's two different animations for the same power (that we currently have)
