A new Busou Shinki proto-type spotted.

[Maou Zenigame]

He's an illustrator who is mainly known for his work with Nitroplus.

If it is him, I certainly wouldn't be complaining.

Also, who's niθ?

I think is a centaur, the back part looks like transformable legs to me

...AH. HE DESIGNED ALICE (Queen's Gate). Well, now I know who you mean, more or less. And yeah, I kinda see it.

Ehe, I'm glad!
I thought you'd all be familiar with him some way or another.
The Japanese guys I talk to all seem to have similar ideas as you guys in terms of what she actually is.
Personally I think it's a centaur or something similar.
There's no doubt that she has a second pair of legs on her back...
I have one guy I talk to who thought it might be a Jester..?!
Yeah, I'm not totally sure how he got to that one, but he also suggested "MMS Type Capricorn" which I really like the sound of.
Well, the design is pretty close to niθ character design so...I reckon it's got a very solid chance of being one of his.
I'm glad to see this thread is so active.

I've been thinking Saggitarius, because it looks like you can combine the gun and sword (if the sword is one of a pair) into a bow, but Capricorn makes the most sense...

That would be badass if they decided to do a wave of astro sign themed ones, well we already have scorpio covered. How cool would it be to have a Gemini type that actually had armor that could make a more robotic looking double of the shinki.

[Benio]

after seeing pics of her "backpack" I also am thinking it might be a centaur.

[Ryu_Kaizer]

I know it was said on the first page, don't know if it was said again, but looking at it, it does have a distinked dragon design to it, if you look at the head you can see waht look like horns that look like they might belong to a dragon, and it seems the the back of the head might be the dragon's head it self

After looking at the backpack I think it's a high chance she would be a Kirin.
