• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

NEW RENDERS

I'm sure it'll stop looking weird with time. Him wearing something that isn't black and white is a shock, though! Didn't he and Roscoe always wear black and white items? Maybe he's going all David Bowie on us and reinventing himself.

Roscoe had the danger tee, which was black and orange, Lobo has a checker-grid design, so they are wearing different shirts
 
So how are you guys managing to choose which villagers reside in your town? Through amiibos?

Yeah.
I have all the cards and figures of who I want, though Lobo won't be one of them this time, as they royally screwed him up.

I miss his grey, and amazing huge eyes that were his trademark.

Oh I see, you use the same ones as you've used in previous games?

Excuse my ignorance of how this things work. I've never really taken an interest in them.

Pretty much, though this time I'll have more dog villagers, and Fang. :)
 
I wonder how they messed up Lobo's color so much, so far out of all the renders that been released everyone looked pretty good.

Why this color? It makes no sense at all (I mean, I love purple and all, but this isn't his color palette as they say, purple definitely isn't your color pal)
 
I'm kinda sad to see that Vesta is wearing a sweater instead of a scarf lol ;(

But other than that I'm super happy and excited to see these new renders, they look amazing ( ? ▽ ` )ノ

I think the explanation can be guessed by the lighting on the model. All the villagers look lighter, and a bit reder than before. Take O’Hare for example, his fur is much lighter and reder. They all seem to have had the same treatment. Lobo’s fur was light-blue-gray. If you light that colour up and throw in some more red light, light gray blue becomes purple?
 
SO pumped about these, the new detail to the shirts looks so good.

Also excited to see all my favourite sheep coming back! And they look super great in sweaters this time. :)
 
tbh i much prefer the sheep with shirts compared to the sheep with scarves the more i look at the renders. they always looked nekkid in with their scarves even tho they have wool i just felt bad for then. and now the shirts will display properly instead of being a weird replication on a scarf. plus even tho their floof was been nerfed they look even more huggable to me but that may be my bias showing.

i also noticed that the animals were given their own lil details. like hopkins is supposed to be an inflatable thing and so instead of getting regular fur like the other rabbits he has a plastic texture instead. and frita's wool looks like french fries while curlos's looks curlier than the other sheeps' wool. zucker's sauce is shiny, and spike's gold accents definitely look like gold. 10/10 detailing

Twitter thread of all of the renders so you dont have to watch the long video just to find your favorite villager :)

All species shown: Bunnies, Pigs, Rhinos, Sheep, Squirrels, Octopuses, Tigers, Wolves, Ostriches, Eagles and Penguins

Thank you for sharing the sauce, I don't like watching long videos that just show pictures. lol

I'm loving how the developers this time around are putting more detail into what the characters wear for the different times of the year, I'm curious to see if the villagers do the same thing.

How am I seeing this only now? The quality is so good it's making me appreciate even the villagers I thought I disliked. And the clothes they're all wearing look SO cute on them, I'm crying!
