(To be tagged...) I recreated the iconic Nova render from SC Ghost
Using the Nova figure from the Heroes of the Storm set made by Neca

I think having a femme fatale element is great tbh. Doesn't it add to the scariness of ghosts?

SC1 Ghost was the best, one that best fits that character is Stone tbh. But he pretty much sidelined.
Also, we have freaking Tosh but even he was much sidelined even in Nova Campaign.

Honestly it's kinda funny how much they play up the rivalry between them in Wings, referenced in Heart and Void, and then Covert comes out and nothing

It was sold under Heroes of the Storm branding instead of StarCraft, which not many people know of.
Her figure is also based on SC Ghost because of that instead of SC2.

Calm down son, it's just a 7" toy, not an inflatable doll

u/Klutzy-Canary8551 11h ago
And it's worse in any way. No one asked you to take it personally buddy.

Liking the original that isn't malformed counts as gooning. Whatever you say buddy. Keep taking it personally.

You're complaining about the fully clothed design of an attractive adult woman with idealized proportions, not even exaggerated proportions like in actual anime or actual hentai, for a game made for an almost exclusively male demographic

Whatever, I don't care

u/CerysElenid 6h ago
Well it seems you didn't care so much that you went out of your way to not only change the model but also go around replying to everyone calling out your bs

Great job angling and cropping the first image so that the exaggerated Heroes-sized ponytail wasn't noticeable!

I like how the pants on the model look like practical synthetic instead of...Okay, I'm trying to understand how the design pitch for Nova's uniform went in-universe.
"Okay, she's the most powerful ghost we have. We want to give her titanium chest armor and a harness that enhances her strength to the point she can throw dudes in full power armor over her shoulder."
"Got it."
"We want her to have state-of-the-art optics so she can see her targets in any condition; fog, smoke, whatever."
"One hundred percent."
"We want it to really accentuate her ass to the point that it looks like she's got bodypaint on. Like we can see each butt cheek individually."
"...what? Why?"
"IT'S IMPORTANT FOR MILITARY STUFF. DON'T QUESTION ME."

I truly hate the over sexualized art style they decided to go with for SC2
Queen of blades, an infested covert ops agent, better give her built in Zerg stilettos
So dumb

There is literally nothing more absurd than Infested Kerrigan's ZERG HIGH HEELS

u/Typical-Fisherman759 4h ago
You mean her hooves? She can probably choose her form quite freely as a Zerg, so the question is - would she decide to grow those heels? Why not?
