  I like how there's different artists for each character.
  
  Probably will update this thread with new DLC if there's interest.

  Now I'm interested in who's doing the art for Ira, and how they're going to make her look, since she was one of the first to be confirmed to be a DLC character. Hopefully not in the modern day Final Fantasy fashion that Roy is in (and yes, I do know that the artist for Roy didn't do any work on any Final Fantasy game, you can still agree that the style is the game). While the style can work for this game and it's new characters, I find it a little hard to believe that Elibe underwent an industrial revolution so shortly after Roy defeated Iduin to the point where he (and possibly other characters from FE6) is now garbed in steampunk-esque fashion.

  I'll agree that Roy's artwork looks similar to Final Fantasy, but it actually looks pretty cool to me. The outfit looks a lot cooler than his previous one.

  I want Siglud.

  I would've prefered the artist for Marth did it for all of them

  Where's the Steampunk part in his outfit? Looks rather Renaissance inspired to me (lazily executed though - the least Renaissance looking Renaissance inspired dress I've seen so far). It's got those elaborate plate armor parts and colorful clothes. Makes me think of Assassin's Creed 2 if anything.
  
  It's still hideous of course.

  The only thing about Roy's outfit that bothers me is that big-ass shield thing on his shoulder. Seriously, wtf is that suppose to be anyways? If it's for added protection, then I don't really see it being very effective if at all.
  
  I'm also interested in seeing what Ike's and Micaiah's design looks like in this game since they're supposedly part of Marth's DLC campaign.

  I actually like Roy's outfit, I just didn't like the way his face was drawn in this

  Another Story: Spirit Talisman 3 (2nd May 2012~)
  The old fortune-teller blunders and somehow lets his magical talismans fall into enemy hands. Twenty heroes have been summoned from ten worlds. If Krom can win this battle, maybe he can obtain the other-world's ultimate treasure...?

  Hero King Marth--the kind King of Archanea. Celice the Earl of Light--the noble King of Jugdral. These two kings continue their battles in the Other-world and Krom decides to lend a hand to Celice to defeat Marth's army.
  Reward: Holy King Arum's Talisman (allows players to recruit "Arum from Another World"), Demon Fighter Scroll (lets male units change to the Demon Fighter class)
  
  Difficulty: 2 star, Price: 400 Yen
  Artist: HACCAN (Avalon Code, Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky)
  
  ____________
  
  There's one more DLC to be released that day, but the reward is just 7000 gold.
  
  Also, what, Demon Fighter class? From Gaiden?

  damn Micaiah, there's something off about her face in that image
• Misaka wrote on 2012-04-27 09:34
  The irony when I go on wiki and Micaiah's class changes from light mage in RD to dark mage in Awakening.
• Rin wrote on 2012-04-27 13:56
  There's no Light category of magic in Awakening, so I guess... it would make sense she's a Dark Mage?
  
  But FFS, I (and others) dislike how the artist sexualized her to that extent. It's disturbing to see her look like that.

  I'd like to have Erika and Eurphaim. I loved those two sibling.
