This is a very special art fix. For this one, we edited the models themselves. It’s pretty crazy but this built our skill at mesh editing, texture editing, rigging, weight painting, and creating transforms to use later.

Giromon - Well if you can’t tell how this is different from the Toei model, I don’t know what to say 😅. This is meant to look like the Bandai design: very long horns, thin arms, small ball head. I added the hard shadow Bandai-like shader we made and some extra lighting/shaders for a metallic reflection. This had to be rigged because no one rigged this model (distributed on our deviantArt)! Turns out rigs do nothing good without weight painting 😅. That’s a whole new skill we had to learn and implement correctly and this is the first try! It’s the dawn of a new age on Digimon Battle Evolution art. Now we are not even limited by models others have rigged, HD-ified or ripped!

Tekkamon - A lot of the same after-effects as with Giromon. We obviously just edited that (now-rigged) model for new purposes. The only Tekkamon edit that exists is...kinda gross (no offense!) so this was a must. I studied Tekkamon to get the sworsmanship gloves just right, the eyes, the color grading. Then I had to create the sword. That sword (Zandenken 斬電剣 ) had to be created unfortunately. But that means I got more practice. The sword texture was also created but I merged elements from Zanbamon’s side sword. The good news is in the end, I think we got an amazing look. Tekkamon is also distributed on the deviantArt.
