aside from practicality it seems like the spikes and billion tiny details on the chest plate are an essential part of the design
so you’d have to recreate them and do it all manually which would prove difficult because node limit so you’d have to split the figure up into like 1600 different pieces
not saying no one’s gonna make it I’m saying it’s complicated af

Who hate them? There are still a lot of people who use the base figures in their animations. There can surely be a group of people who hate em for their own reasons, but not everyone does.
It’s not really a recent issue. People have come to realize base figs and scarf figs are all the same and not very interesting. All they do is fight and have foolish backstories and so many copies are made making an unoriginal, forgettable concept. Their creators mostly are also arrogant and don’t accept criticism because they thinks it’s fine cause they have subs and clans to back them up. A scarf or base user converting to a detailed figure is a good symbol of integrity and respect.
It’s not necessarily a bad thing people are hating them. Sure, they are criticized, but for good reason. People then can be pressured to make something decent. Not epitaph or explosive bullet level, but having more detail like clothes, armor, structure, and other good assets.
But what about the non arrogant ones? I’ve met a few who use base figures because of various small reasons like saving space
Are all base figures bad? And why integrity? Seems off place what makes using more detail integral
Like I said, mostly. Yes there are a few I know that aren’t arrogant but it’s not too common
I use base because it seems like some sort of issue is always there with detailed ones. Like a misplaced node or they’re just hard to animate, with a base you can stretch the limbs, there is more flexibility and they usually don’t have a seizure when you attempt to flip them on tween. But that doesn’t mean detailed is bad, base is just my style.
You see, it isn’t just about detail, it’s about character design
A lot of people in the SN community hate them because a lot of base/scarf figures are poorly designed.
What is good character design you ask? Well a good character design should tell you what the character’s about at a glance, by using body shape, clothing, poses, etc. Depending on the character’s screen time, and use, some designs need to be more exaggerated or subtle.
The problem with most base figures is that the designs say almost nothing. But that’s not to say a simple figure can’t say a lot.
It really depends on your style and what suits the character best when it comes to detail and simplicity. You should still have a focus on good character design no matter what style, as appeal and character design is an integral part of character animation.
The way I see it, Base figures are fine.
It’s the scarf users that need to cease as they usually only have a scarf because all the popular animators have one.
I’ve said this before more in depth but it’s basically
nobody hates them because of their basicness
people hate them when they win features/downloads over stickfigures that have had more work put in
Interesting
“nobody hates them because of their basicness”
“people hate them when they win features/downloads over stickfigures that have had more work put in”
“have had more work put in”
low effort leads to basicness
so
:/
