Hello Guild, how are you guys? While I was waiting for Iroha and Mina to be CS'ed a while back, I was secretly working on another character on the side for fun. Here I present CvS2 Carol, with custom sprites done by my great friend VioFitz. For Carol, I think this is my best character yet, all the mistakes and experience I was able to pour into Carol. Still learning, but the process itself of making CvS2 character is getting better. Here's a little gameplay of me using her in Arcade Mode. Upon release I'll make a dedicated thread giving credits to major key roles who helped me on these projects.VIDEO
Hello Guild! Proud to say that I've been working tirelessly and putting in lots of time on a new CvS2 character: Iroha from SS6! I don't particularly have a bias for SS games into CvS2 games, just happens that I found Iroha and Mina to be great conversions. With more experience this time around, she is about 90% done, and it's been about 20 days of working on Iroha. Converting her style to CvS2 was very fun because the best part is designing their gameplay, combos, strategies, mixups, and simple bread n butter combos. She has custom sprites just for this CvS2 conversion. Those sprites are custom made, and never before seen yet! Hope you all enjoy the progress report. Of course, her original effects have been hi-res'd, and they look pretty good!

Short Video Test / Combo,Mixups,Strats VIDEO Screenshots Hello everyone. I've only just recently gotten back into Mugen. Had been on a really long hiatus for like 8 years or something. Lost my most recent CVS Mina in a bad hard drive crash. She was nearly done but I lost it. I had to contact aokmaniac13 because I entrusted a slightly older beta to him a year prior. But I didnt realize the one I sent him was slightly faulty too. Recently I have really gotten back into CvS2 (actual game) and been playing a lot. That sparked my interest to continue this project for Mina that I abandoned. So what's new?
+ Updated SFF alignment, Animations, CLSNs - to this day I still struggle with aligning her properly, because when I got her there was no information on her alignment and there was only a spritesheet to start this character so I had to see what other artists were doing, and some of the moves for alignment had to come to my own intution. (Most other Mina's out there are not CVS you know)

Needs Color Separation. The whole SFF and sprites need to be redone imo. They're "passable" but in today's standards if not CS'd it's missing out on lots of potential opportunity.
Would anybody be willing to partner with me on this project ?

Needs more moves. Missing her drilling overhead spinning kick, a super, and that other special where she jumps across the screen and shoots and arrow behind p2.
+ How does she play? Well, I decided to showcase you some game play videos of me playing her against some high level AIs. Why? My intention is to show what she is capable of doing, within the rules and realms of just CvS2. So this character is using warusaki3 style grooves. Including his EX Groove. I've made some videos showing how to use her, and her current strengths. Check it out! They are epic fights as well if you are in for a thrill.

Is she accurate to her SS self gameplay? I cannot promise you that. I did take inspiration from her original games but I was always more a Capcom SF player in mind. Ironically, in CvS2, I don't use any Capcom characters seriously. My main team is all SNK characters in CvS2 lol. Anyways, I designed her gameplay to feel mostly like CvS2, and did whatever best I could do with her attacks to complement that. I'm sure she will play well if some of you put in the work to use her. I can promise however, she has the necessary skills and BnB combos to get her by in a solid, grounded, CvS2 style gameplay.

Think of her as [ kind of like CvS2 "Another" Mina.
on a side note:
