![]() [Preferred Character Designs Contest: 2 way match-up] Kain is probably the most well known dragoon in gaming history, and there's a good reason for that. We're going to be comparing his original design, with his sequel design. Kain goes through a lot in story and while he prefers to do things alone, in the end his friends comes through for him and that helps build on his character. Since the wanderer design from TAY didn't stand a chance against the original, let's see how the Holy Dragoon stands against him. Basically Kain went from a Dark Dragoon, to a Holy one. Choice # 1: Kain Highwind (Amano's Design) From: Final Fantasy IV, Dissidia Choice # 2: Kain Highwind (Holy Dragoon) From: Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, Dissidia ![]() Here's another pic of the Holy Dragoon for good measure. ![]() Discussion on which design you prefer is strongly encouraged. It doesn't have to be an in depth analysis, just let everyone know why you like the design you picked over the other one. *REMEMBER TO VOTE AT THE TOP!!* Edited by andaryu, Jan 20 2012, 04:16 PM.

Yeah, I just made a new one to see if the Holy Dragoon stood a chance against Kain's original design since TAY's design wasn't doing so well. Looks the original has all other designs beat! Edited by andaryu, Jan 20 2012, 09:01 PM.

You know, I actually kind of like the Holy Dragoon look better. He looks like he'd be more agile like I imagine dragoon having to be. The Amano design looks too cumbersome, not for somebody having to jump around a lot. Edit: Not too crazy about the color, though. That being said, the Holy Dragoon thing doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. It's not like Cecil who gave himself to darkness and then later having to purify himself by becoming a paladin. Kain is just a dragoon. Sure he had his demons, but his job class had nothing to do with dark arts. Edited by Glenear, Jan 20 2012, 09:54 PM.

The latter, because it's much more unique, compared to all of these "amano" designs (what does that even mean?!) being very similar to each other design-wise |

oh, the artist? (btw, by what I said before, I certainly don't think his style bad, it's just that the characters look fairly similar to each other) |
