Exclamation Open to Opinions

okay, here's the lastest body design for my pw project, before i do too much more on them i'm wanting some feedback...

from top-left, going clockwise: entilok, more like humans, they are skilled swordsmen, they live on the plains; elwen, woodland people, close to nature, passivists; tundorian (body design on the far right is a seconday choice since i don't completely like the first design i made [yes, those are stripes]), like eskimos, wise and have psycho-kinetic powers, live in arctic areas; atavus, sheer warriors, skilled with explosives, very agressive, desert dwellers...

give me some feedback and i'll get to work on fixing them up...
btw, they're original this time...

Is it just me or ever since Oasis came out, has almost every new PW started designing new chars sets and all of them (almost) are just oasis spin offs?

Well, these are not rip-offs of oasis characters, these are originals, though they do have similarities. They are about the same height to the oasis chars and probably have the same rgb values (due to using the graal rbg's for skin tones) and they are close to the same style, but still not quite...

Have you not noticed that graal classic characters are in the plain style also?
Besides, I like that style a lot, g2k1 is in a league of its own with its more realistic style and I'm not too much for that style...one of my goals with my pw is to maintain the classic graal style/zelda3 style...
[edit]
hey, mine are actually a bit shorter...anyway, try this:

here's another good one: http://forums.graal2001.com/forums/s...s&pagenumber=3
it'll give you an idea of how they are noticably different..

sigh...at least TRY to take me for my word...

here's some proof, in the attached picture, mine on the left, oasis on the right, oasis character heads are 2 pixels taller and 4 wider, the eyes are different...the ears are different...the mouths are different...hey, even the eyebrows are different...
now...it may just be me, but the when you used the word 'exactly' you didnt mean something else, right? maybe you meant not quite the same, or similar yet different, or heck, maybe you even meant 'oops, i really dont know what the word exactly means'...satisfied, yet?

well, there's my sarcasm for the day...

I dont like the rings for the stomach.

The part of the arm right above the hand on the shirtless characters shouldtn buldge so much.

The dues with the lines all over them I detest. =\

i dont blame you, it's my least favorite of the four, both versions...
i want originally aiming for fur but ended up with stripes, oh well, i think i'll go back to fur

anyway, i will take all of these opinions into consideration when touching up these characters...
thanks to everyone for their input
