WX hasn't got a skin in almost 2 years now, so i made some concepts!


Recommended Posts

there are characters who probably haven't gotten one in a longer period of time (wanda? webber? wolfgang? i don't recall) but being WX the best character ever objectively (real, definitely not a joke), should probably get more first :]

first one is the archaic! (by the way, don't mind the sideviews. i got lazy)

i based this off the knowledge fountains of the archives, and i think it fit nicely with this design. i had made one previously, but i ended up not liking it very much, so i've redone it! one aspect i really liked drawing was the moon glass eyes, at first i was just gonna go with some shine on them, but the glowing "pupils" looked cooler, so i went with those!

second is the swashbuckler!

i struggled a bit with this one, since i found it a bit hard to make WX look "pirate-y". i ended up going with a more rustic and more mechanical theme, with a spyglass for an eye, and locks for bolts, so they can keep their knowledge under lock and key :]. i didn't draw the body, but i feel like it being barrel-shaped would be both funny and fitting

i didn't do the masquerade skin 'cuz i couldn't find a cool concept for it, sadly

what do you guys think of these? would you like in the future to get something similar to these? let me know what you think about 'em!

Wait it is been two years since Platinum WX?!?

yup, first moonbound set (the one with wx in it) came out october 2022, in the "a little drama" update, same year he got reworked. it's been quite a while, though to be fair i thought that came out like last year

ooooohn, I REALLY like this concept, i do think the face plates could use a tweak or two but overall thats really really good, genuinely awesome job fabin.

this on the other hand i think could definitely use some changes, not that its low effort or bad in any way its just highly reminiscent of the victorian skin and doesnt feel quite as pirate-y if you get what i mean, still though it looks really nice! :)

fyi wx is canonically nonbinary, wont be taking any arguments to "disprove" it as joew himself adressed it.

I absolutely love this more than the first version, even if it has a copy and pasted boat patch. It adds a lot of character and detail that the first one was lacking. I don't think any Wx-78 skins have a eyepatch going for them. So its nice to have something thats new.

Oh btw it would be cute to hide a little x or skull under the eyepatch. Fun little detail.
