We still have to remember that this is 2D art, we have no way of knowing how these designs would translate to 3D models, and judging from the fact they stayed as concept, probably not well.
Agreed! They might have made 3D Beta Models with the Concept Arts and they looked bad in 3d especially with Beta Frye's Spiky hairstyle as that would be a clipping nightmare for an animator.
Honestly I like Grizz's old design, it gives off a creepier vibe compared to the teddy bear we got. Though its strongest point is also its fatal flaw, Its creepy nature doesn't fit all too well with splatoons art style. That and it would probably scare the crap out of kids
If you're talking about 0:45 that's already in the game, as you can see here he's wet with yellow ink, if you hack the game and zoom out in the cutscene where he's wet with yellow ink you can see this exact model, so this isn't unused and was just a concept art for the model
I absolutely adore the concept art design of Shiver and Frye, they detail put into the outfits, epecially shivers shark tooth necklace one and Frye's star like hair are things we majorily missed out on having, i hope they repurpose the designs in the future for other characters cause they are truly gems
I love the final designs a lot and some might of pushed the game for a T rating given this is the only shooter that is family friendly and creative and even Splatoon 3 still has the wacky fun feel in its gameplay but more balanced.
Also, regarding marina’s cropped clothes, its just the octarian style! Every npc octoling has cropped clothing! Marina, the enemy octolings, agent 8 (both male and fem), and shiver! Also hypnoshade cally! But yeah i totally see your point lol
I personally don't find anything wrong with Marina's designs having croptops. Sure, the intention may be for fanservice, but I'm pretty sure there are people (including girls) that like showing their skin all the time in real life. Plus, from my understanding, it's part of the octarian style anyway. So if anything, it's a culture thing. Sometimes, it feels restricting to make most of your characters fully clothed, so I think it's only fair to have that one character wear revealing clothing.
I love the old concepts. I’m a slave for concept!Shiver’s hair (I made an OC with the similar hairstyle lmao). I like to think that Octo/Inklings can split tentacles to look like they have more tentacles than they’re supposed to. I would combine the second concept clothes with the first concept’s hair for Shiver. Frye’s concept looks definitely emphasized her energetic and potentially rowdy personality. I love her star-like hair. Pearl’s outfits definitely showed how robbed we were. The old looks made sense for her backstory of having metal influence.
I do love Shrive clothes and her final design but frye was more risky but since Nintendo wanted a E10 plus rating with the core gameplay of Splatoon as uncreative it looks to a lot of people the design is understandable for a age rating prospective and I'm not a fan of female characters being design to look like stripers like KDA for league of legends no offense if you like league.
i really like deep cut old designs. they actually look there like theyre loud and bring chaos, compared to what we got. in story mode, 9 sunken scroll told us that theyre loudest trio, but the only one what seems loud is frye. i know that someone can be extremly violent and loud and dress in cute dresses, but were talking about character design. if nintendo knew that they wont make their personality clear, they should at last make design show us their personality. because all of them now seem bland, and the fact splatfests arent anymore personality based makes it even harder to learn about them
Although the concepts were good, in my opinion I like the Frye we have I love her color scheme and her energetic personality, I was iffy with her design but her design grew onto me. But I wonder what were those Inkling with horns? Was there gonna be more lore?
I do understand everyone who says they feel robbed when it comes to these concepts, but thats why they are in that book. The Splatoon creators allow everyone to see the process and the many designs that even they appreciated as well since they published the book. Besides, a character's old design shouldn't break your love/interest in the final versions of them. It should be awesome that you get to see your favorite character in a different form.
Fun fact: they actually made a model for Mr.Grizz's old design that was used in the shot where Mr.Grizz said his final words, all you need is a camera editing tool and zoom out and you can see it.
I really disagree with the comment that Marina doesn’t have a personality, because she does but I don’t really care to go in depths about it. All I’m saying is that if you focused on her scripts and not her tits, you’d notice the personality outside of the “personality”
exactly, her shy personality and mentor/protégé dynamic with pearl behind the scenes is interesting and cute NoA kinda ruined a bunch of her news dialogues but i dont see how you can play octo expansion and come out thinking she's a plank
As much as i love the first concept of frye i think i prefer how she looks now It shows the south east asian inspuration a lot more and how they took a cultural melting pot angle for the chaos esque theme of splatoon 3 With shiver being traditional japanase, frye being indian/souteast asian and big man adding brazilian to the mix Also i think the reasin why the seethrough jacket mightve been scrapped is because it couldve been really hard to make it in 3d? Either way i prefer Frye's current design as i think shes an adorable gremlin and ive seen lots of praise toeards her from southeast asian people ^^
Marina has the best character story of the Splatoon idols. She has just as much of a personality as all of the others, and octo expansion gave her a really good backstory. The fact that you think marina is just fan service is really telling
Personally, I am not a fan of the deep cut concept designs. They just feel a bit strange to me. I find it cool that shiver was meant to resemble a manta ray in one of her designs, presumably before big man was in the question, but I just can’t say I like frye’s concept designs. I love the one we have now, even is she looks like a little alien to some. But hey, I’m not judging your opinion. This was interesting
You have to understand that most of the designs, while they may be solid in their own right, just couldn’t all be in one game, and may not fit the game as a whole.
5:05 Hey hey hold on Frye Is cute! Sure her beta design looks way better than Shiver’s beta design! But show Frye some respect!……Your video is funny but I don’t agree with your opinion on Frye
in an alternate universe, we did get those designs and the ones that are canon in our universe are the ones theyre saying we were robbed of in the other universe. just food for thought :)
6:12 I’m going to be honest. I prefer Shiver and Fryes concept designs. I just like them better. Shivers design at 6:12 is my preferred shiver and Utsubo and Fryes design at 6:12 are both my favorites and they go between. Big Mans final design is already perfect. I’d take the Stingray over the Octarian anytime.
Seeing the deep cut concept art pieces had me so amazed and angry at the same time. They're cool, but it's such a shame they couldn't make it. The concept ones were much more interesting and had more going on compared to what we got. Personally, I feel that the deep cut we got felt lacking and kinda boring. They could've done more with them.
I'm happy with the final designs that we got for everybody. It was cool seeing how they could have turned out but their current designs feel cohesive and fresh.
I really love pearl and fryes design and I guess I understand why others don't like them, but the absolute feral hate they feel for them is so out of pocket. 💀💀
I find it interesting that children frienliness seems to be the filtering polish at the very end of development. For some reason the starting concepts are always very raw and rough and full of attitudes.
Im sure there was reasons why they settled on the designs they've chosen. Maybe it didnt fit with a theme they had, or didn't think the outfits expressed the characters the way they imagined. But I always enjoy looking over concept art for various games i play. Imagining what if they went with a certain design, and would the characters we know be totally different?
5:00 The fits aright but the design might be a bit too scary and sharp for the first characters you see in the bright, bubbly, and all-age-friendly world of Splatoon.
If someday Deep Cut get alternative clothes, like Off the Hook got in Octo Expansion, Nintendo NEEDS to look back at this unused designs. They are awesome!
6:42 Honestly, my faves gotta be the 3rd one. Keeps to the cuteness of Splatoon but has a more punk chaos feel to it. I definitely feel like Nintendo could have made the "Chaos" of Splatoon 3 more evident. Especially with designs like these.
Hey, it's been a while! I too think we were robbed of the beta designs of Deep Cut and Off The Hook. These concept designs were so good in comparison to the final. I mean, I grew on to like the final designs but once we were shown the beta designs of the characters, I wished Nintendo would've gone with them (especially the ones for Off The Hook). I hope some talented people will make these concept designs come to life. As in redesigning the original model of the characters.
If you think nintendo needs to stop throwing away all of there concept designs, then I don’t think youv ever exspirenced having to publish an idea of yours, and stay dedicated to the way you envision it, that’s just what happens.
2:51 her forehead also got a breath of fresh air Edit: that was kind of weird sorry, also those designs right at the end were great, I liked the one with the long ponytail ive always thought that looked cool and also I thought before about a starfish-type character with hair excactly like “Frye”’s at 5:39 and I love shivers design here too and the first pearl design you showed ok this comment is too long now bye
I personally like the judgemental roommate with questionable fashion choices design for shiver and I think I would even go as far as to say that I like it better than the one final one

I can imagine it looking good
Idc it will look good no matter what

@@cafe.sec0 u should probably study modeling lol

I wanted stuff as creepy as giygas not a edgy teddy bear

Horrorboros scream has entered the chat
@@ordersquid38 On that note. The horrorboros is also creepy AF. That definitely would scare some child.
Honestly, I think it would fit very well, considering how a lot of the salmonids look.
I absolutely adore the concept art design of Shiver and Frye, they detail put into the outfits, epecially shivers shark tooth necklace one and Frye's star like hair are things we majorily missed out on having, i hope they repurpose the designs in the future for other characters cause they are truly gems
Same
they replaced shivers shark tooth necklace with piercings instead. the three piercings in her ear are shark teeth!
I honestly like the official designs we got because it keeps the charm of splatoon with it’s goofy but lovable cast
Also I think money and how movement would work for cutscenes played a part in its scraped use
I love the final designs a lot and some might of pushed the game for a T rating given this is the only shooter that is family friendly and creative and even Splatoon 3 still has the wacky fun feel in its gameplay but more balanced.
I much prefer the designs we got to the first design shown. Something about it just looks wrong to me.
What they did to pearl was unforgivable
Remember: If pearl was different we would have preferred this design
I fail to see anything wrong with our pearl
@@Maritime_Memories we would not. name one person who likes pearls fit
@@shady-from-coroika there's many people who like it, me included. Your opinion isn't normalcy
@@shady-from-coroikame
i agree, i wish they would stop throwing away great designs. 😞
True.
Mabey the developers of Nintendo would release a museum of Splatoon in side order of Splatoon 3.
Welcome to NITENDO
Also, regarding marina’s cropped clothes, its just the octarian style! Every npc octoling has cropped clothing! Marina, the enemy octolings, agent 8 (both male and fem), and shiver! Also hypnoshade cally! But yeah i totally see your point lol
If Utsubo was the design we got I think we know who would be winning all the splatfests
I personally don't find anything wrong with Marina's designs having croptops.

No wonder the little yellow gremlin would like the little yellow gremlin designs :)
let him cook
I really liked the old outfits for Pearl and Marina Damp Socks. It looks sick! Very sad they rejected the design.
marina has a personality wdym 😭😭😭😭
she’s timid but likes teasing pearl, and her backstory is so interesting

i honestly love how marina emulates her va Alice's style, props to nintendo for that
Man, Utsubo had such a fire design, it looks like Pearl on juice
Quite a few of these are cool. I think that the old designs of Shiver and Frye look pretty cool
Although the concepts were good, in my opinion I like the Frye we have I love her color scheme and her energetic personality, I was iffy with her design but her design grew onto me. But I wonder what were those Inkling with horns? Was there gonna be more lore?
Maybe it was gonna go with the scraped campaign mode that was seen
Slaver final design is great frye has a odd design and I do like since the final looks stands out from other octoling
I do understand everyone who says they feel robbed when it comes to these concepts, but thats why they are in that book. The Splatoon creators allow everyone to see the process and the many designs that even they appreciated as well since they published the book.

Nah nintendo straight up committed a full on felony with deep cut 💀💀
Fun fact: they actually made a model for Mr.Grizz's old design that was used in the shot where Mr.Grizz said his final words, all you need is a camera editing tool and zoom out and you can see it.
I like Frye’s design as the way she is
I really disagree with the comment that Marina doesn’t have a personality, because she does but I don’t really care to go in depths about it. All I’m saying is that if you focused on her scripts and not her tits, you’d notice the personality outside of the “personality”

NoA kinda ruined a bunch of her news dialogues but i dont see how you can play octo expansion and come out thinking she's a plank
As much as i love the first concept of frye i think i prefer how she looks now
It shows the south east asian inspuration a lot more and how they took a cultural melting pot angle for the chaos esque theme of splatoon 3
With shiver being traditional japanase, frye being indian/souteast asian and big man adding brazilian to the mix
Also i think the reasin why the seethrough jacket mightve been scrapped is because it couldve been really hard to make it in 3d?
Either way i prefer Frye's current design as i think shes an adorable gremlin and ive seen lots of praise toeards her from southeast asian people ^^
I like to think that design would be what we got if team order won (hence the triangle) (4:05)
Am I crying because we were robbed of great designs? Yes. Yes I am
My man said Marina has no character. Post octo-expansion? no shot lol.
the concept Grizz is actually in game, that's how he looks in the cutscen after you've defeated him.
I don't want to hear people criticizing Shiver's or Frye's design ever again.
Marina has the best character story of the Splatoon idols. She has just as much of a personality as all of the others, and octo expansion gave her a really good backstory. The fact that you think marina is just fan service is really telling
Personally, I am not a fan of the deep cut concept designs. They just feel a bit strange to me.

I love the one we have now, even is she looks like a little alien to some. But hey, I’m not judging your opinion. This was interesting
They did feature skinny gross in the end when he explodes someone used hacks to zoom out and saw skinny grizz
"... Looked significantly more Grizzly" Bruh ☠️
You have to understand that most of the designs, while they may be solid in their own right, just couldn’t all be in one game, and may not fit the game as a whole.
6:51 that desing looks sooo pretty I may do a drawing of it
The designs are exactly like the maps lol

YESSIR
The fact that nintendo made mr grizz suffer with a big body that s bigger than a sun and a head that is smaller than a small pencil
I'm happy with the final designs that we got for everybody. It was cool seeing how they could have turned out but their current designs feel cohesive and fresh.

Geeez they should add these into splatoon 4!
If someday Deep Cut get alternative clothes, like Off the Hook got in Octo Expansion, Nintendo NEEDS to look back at this unused designs.
They are awesome!
so true!
So frye was planned to not look ugly? Bruh why the hell did they pick the one with the forehead knowing damn well everyone would hate it??
Hide, NOW!
SERIOUSLY HIDE THE FRYE STANS ARE COMING FOR YOU ITS NOT TOO LATE@@Dr.jerk1357
I'm so mad at nintendo. This is literally godly, and they just trashed it. Uncommon nintendo L..
bro...
they really made us miss out
no way that nintendo had another design where frye has another shiny ass forehead
Mr grizz looks like something that would jump scare you in the grizzco tapes

Damn i wish they used the concept art of Frye :0
How did you manage to call every upgrade in designs a downgrade?

OH HELL NAW, WE GOT SCAMMED WITH THE DEEP CUT IDOLS 😡
Grizz could have been a littéral FNAF character animatronic thingy
3:11
Honestly, other than Marina's jacket, kinda mid. Prefer the other one and the one we got in Splatoon The crown is the GOAT tho
Hopefully if they give Deepcut dlc they’ll give them cooler outfits like how they did with off the hook
Mr grizzes model in the drawing is in the game, you can see it before he explodes into ink
I personally like the judgemental roommate with questionable fashion choices design for shiver and I think I would even go as far as to say that I like it better than the one final one
4:15 Eda Owl House vibes tbh
YES ;-;
they put a lot of thought into their design for me thats all that matters tbh
