@IronStylus Prototype Viktor TU First Impressions

Disclaimer: I'm not entirely sure who did the Texture update, but directing this at IronStylus because he talked about the possibility in the past. :P

For those of you who haven't seen the new textures on Viktor yet (and are interested), read em and weep: http://www.surrenderat20.net/2014/09/99-pbe-update.html

BAM!

Let me preface by saying Classic and Full Machine Viktor look outright awesome. The tint and the glow on classic looks fantastic, and Full Machine Viktor's sleek new style suits him well.

Prototype Viktor, however - and I'm not sure how others feel about this quite yet - seems to have lost a little bit of his charm. The dark red/brown leather, the bright gold trimmings, and the studs/tracks on his shoulder tread have all been downplayed, resulting in a very warm, unthreatening (or, rather, less threatening - he still shoots lasers out of a claw hand :P ) look to him.

I'm just one person, but I feel like the overall colour scheme could benefit from a general darkening of the reds and greys, and a brightening of the whites and golds (with particular focus on the shoulder treads). Prototype Viktor had a very stylish look, and emphasising the little details went a long way towards that.

I reiterate - I really like the texture update, but some minor colour changes to reflect the more interesting parts of his previous incarnation would make him flat-out awesome. I don't think you fully fathom just how awesome it is to look down on those shoulder treads!
