>>7091353I know what you're getting at but in-game the shadows simply hit the eyelids and give them a more realistic look
In the figure, they went overboard and sculpted actual bags/wrinkles. It just doesn't work
If they had shaded them, it might've worked better but there's still a huge chance that it simply would've looked off
The best thing to do in this situation was to simply not sculpt the eyelid wrinkles and make the character look so much older and tired
The fact that she has a grimace in the figure doesn't help either and just makes her look like the old asian granny that everyone posts all the time
That's why the Figuarts turned out better, because even though it's not accurate to the non-anime style from the recent games, it looks young, attractive and still manages to be recognizable. You can find Street Fighter media where Chun-Li is more anime but you can't find any where she's an old lady. That's where SC messed her up
Hopefully they can fix it before the alt costume version is released but I feel like they would've implemented the change into the prototype, if they were planning on doing it
