Yeah, about this show. I'm sure you'll have plenty for everything else.

I love the concept of Don having a Naginata, and Mikey having a Kasuri-Gama!
(I've been looking up my weapons! I feel special! haha.)

(I'll miss the Bo and Nunchucks but I'm kinda indifferent about it)
But I'm totally open for change.

I'm totally digging the designs.
I just hope the next preview they have, they'll step up with their Animation!
I'm SO excited it isn't even funny!
2012 can't come any faster.

Watch a cutscene from Konami's TMNT: Mutant Nightmare game for PS2/Gamecube/Xbox. That's the third action/adventure beat 'em up they made, for those who don't know.

Compare a youtube video of that, with the Turtles talking in the cinema scene fighting foot, and compare it to this teaser, it doesn't look much different.

Someone do it right now.

**Jester** · 03-11-2011, 12:49 AM

What part of "preliminary images" don't you understand?

This is the stupidest damn thing I have ever seen.

**Jester** · 03-11-2011, 01:15 AM

The preview or the bickering....
Why am I asking, you've been a member long enough to know that's how we roll.

*Dane E5R* · 03-11-2011, 01:36 AM

The preview, my friend.

**Jester** · 03-11-2011, 01:42 AM

I'm still trucking with the whole, "It's just a prelim, not at all final clip." bit.

*Dane E5R* · 03-11-2011, 01:50 AM

Welp, when they fix those weapons, then we'll talk.

twopinacoladas · 03-11-2011, 02:20 AM

My first thought was it wasn't great, there is a lack of sub surface scattering or much in the way of shaders that I can see (maybe turtle skin wouldn't work like human skin with SSS anyway?). Also a lack of any kind of bump or detail on the skin or any type of texture other than the solid color.

Its almost like they tossed on some materials and didn't bother actually texturing the models; tho I am sure its just the style they are going for. I would assume is to make it easier to animate, no muscle suits or anything like that that I can tell. (It's also possible that they are just pre production model's like in the fight test that they did for the 2007 movie with Leo fighting Raph.)

After I watched it several times tho, I do kind of like the style and it seems somewhat mirage-esque. I have to admit I am liking it more and I am actually believing Nick may deliver a good TMNT show, I am happy that they are not making it like the 80's series. Perhaps it will be a little different than all the past iterations.

I like what they are doing with the show logo, although it made me want to see Eastman & Lairds instead of Nicks name (maybe the show will be darker). The models or at least the head remind me somewhat of Dario Brizuela turtle heads with the smaller lower face. Specifically in the Raph pic that was posted. The turtles themselves seem smaller kind of like the first issue but with a different style.

Here is one I grabbed of Mikey.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

I will mention these models are higher polygon counts than a ps2 or game cube game. While not detailed in texture or having any sort of displacement normal maps or anything I can see they are models that wouldn't be in a video game from last generation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udSLceu27F0 here is a little comparison with an in game model from last gen. Its also re assuring that nick spends upward of $600-$700 thousand on their animated shows per episode. I'll wager that they will look better than they do now in the show but its cool to see the direction its going.

I would lol if this turned out to be a fans interpretation of the image released earlier this week. They do look to be fairly simplistic models to make but I am sure that's not the case. On a side not I was going to make a joke in another topic about if they gave don a spear and they did in this video.

*Peeks from under the rock and slowly crawls out* well its about damn time i've waited for so long for something tmnt. what i seen the last 3 days i am excited, i fully embrace this new TMNT----GIVE ME ! *huggles the new turtles of 2011* :3 don looks bad ass with a blade....yaay maybe he has a back bone after all

For pitty's sake Cyber it's prelim animation. It'll be a long time before we see animation from an episode of the show.

Why should we assume it wont look better than that? Planet Sheen and The Penguins of Madagascar look better and the Kung-Fu Panda cartoon in the works looks even better than those and this show isn't coming out until 2012.

But if you're expecting the animation to look as good as a CGI feature film I suggest you sets your sights lower, because CGI TV shows never look as good as a feature film from DreamWorks, Pixar or another quality CGI feature studio.

*PizzaPower* · 03-11-2011, 06:52 AM

im in love with the new series already

Sorry bud, but i think you need glasses or take a closer look on the images.

The 3D models we've seen in the teaser video, looks way better, the models got a higher polygon count. Not only is it a different style and visualization, the teaser video shows us models made to do a whole lot more then what some video game sprites will do.

deadpoolRKO · 03-11-2011, 07:28 AM

i knew i should've got on the drome last night. lol.

this was pretty cool , i like pizza power's idea about them having they're original weapons that can switch into bladed ones. although I don't see why they wouldn't just be bladed in every battle so I guess it really wouldn't matter. Overall i like it it's exciting.

also i like the logo at the end. The bold Font and the brightness of the green looked good imo.

exciting stuff
