<p>Great news! I started playing the 77 CVerse in a privately converted TEW13 version and I'm really looking forward to your official update of it.</p><p> </p><p> I created a couple of renders specifically for Japanese workers that I used in my own 77 games. Most of those are included in TEW16 as free pictures but again feel free to take anything you may have use for from my phonobucket library <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> <a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/Shinsuke87/library/myrenders" rel="external nofollow">http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/Shinsuke87/library/myrenders</a></p>

<p>I'm into my current game as far as August 2017 now.</p><p> </p><p> Just had Funakoshi beat Torii for the World championship after winning the Maeda Grand Prix earlier. My main story for the years to come will be that Torii while being the unofficial (non figurehead) ace of BCG never yet managed to beat Funakoshi in a World championship match.</p><p> </p><p> GCG just rose to Cult level but I managed to avoid mass exodus so far by offering touring contracts to workers who would otherwise have left. Tanyu, Sojuro Sen, Yoshinaka Taku are still with BCG thus - only Razan Okamoto inevitably left for Burning Hammer where he gets his paycheck for appearing at about 2 TV shows a year. (The Weightsplit feature leading to a 80 worker roster really "broke" BHOTWG in TEW16 in my opinion...)</p><p> </p><p> I decided to try a slow growth approach, running mainly in Kinki with the odd show in Kanto and Chubu to maintain popularity there. I'm now at 60 popularity in Kinki which means a good revenue for bigger events while still bleeding money for touring shows. Really challenging to get a touring company in the green in TEW16. Attendances for tour shows seem to low in my opinion, maybe only for smaller companies.</p><p> </p><p> Funakoshi, Torii, Bulldozer Brandon and Nobuharu Yokokawa (UC) all have tourned into workrate monsters, usually scoring 90+ individual match performances. Since upping the production values of my shows, the odd A-rated tag main event means BCG is able to win regional wars comfortably now.</p><p> </p><p> Still have not figured out how to get a worker loyal to the company which means that until reaching Cult (maybe another year!?) I will continue to live in fear of losing bright talents like Tanyu Toshusai and Yoshinaka Taku.</p><p> </p><p> PS. Just seen your post about the worker loyalty, Hawk1665, an absolute agree on that. You can defy the talents raids with touring contracts but it should be possibly to build a core roster of loyal workers. Especially considering every young lion signed to an AI company gets loyalty with them immediately.</p>

So I take it the criteria for loyalty have not changed - under 25 years, unemployed/exclusive contract with your company, not yet loyal or freelance - it just takes longer for the loyalty to be established? I'm wondering, having played a 2 year game where some of my young lions have only and exclusively worked for me in that time and event renewed contracts in between. Not one of them has become loyal to my company. I'm very interested in this because loyalty is such an important strategic aspect in all games Japan/puro

Feeling less lazy now... http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/Noritoshi%20Miura_headband.jpghttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/Inejiro%20Yoshizawa_headband.jpg

Inejiro Yoshizawa & Noritoshi Miura. Too lazy atm to add the bandanas NB: These are Photobucket thumbnails of low quality. Sorry but you will have to follow the links to get the original quality files. The normal photobucket links don't seem to work right now... http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/th_Inejiro%20Yoshizawa.jpghttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/th_Noritoshi%20Miura.jpg http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/th_Inejiro-Yoshizawa.gifhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/th_Noritoshi-Miura.gif

Just fired up my first real game with TEW16 and it's a BCG game. Not surprising since the Black Canvas was my go-to company in '13 already and I took them to a good Cult level multiple times. Now Tanyu, Okamoto and Sojuro Sen are lost already but making money does not seem to bother me too much. (I re-negotiate all contracts at the beginning of the game, cutting costs a little and giving the expensive veterans "Special Attraction" clauses to prevent morale ditches for not using them on tour shows) Regional Battle seems a bit tough, might have to spam shows to effectively gain pop. I agree with Hawk1665 on some annoyances with BCG like the TagMania and some other event names, the Challergers Series title, too. As far as event go, I build some personal BCG lore from '13 which I will re-implement. Might turn this game into a dynasty and try to stick with it... Has anybody figured out how to create loyalty in '16 yet? I always like to build up a strong body of loyal workers in the long term.

Still looks great though! It's always amazing what a pleasing render does for a worker - for the first time I would be willing to give SATO a push of any kind

Damn, I totally missed those while browsing this thread at work today Nice work!

The retired (ex-) PGHW heroes suited up... http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/cverse_alts/Nobuatsu%20Tatsuko_suit.jpg~originalhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/cverse_alts/Shuji%20Inukai_suit.jpg~originalhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/cverse_alts/Mito%20Miwa_suit.jpg~originalhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/cverse_alts/Mito%20Miwa_suit1.jpg~original Also gifs... http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/cverse_alts/Shuji-Inukai_suit.gif~originalhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/cverse_alts/Nobuatsu-Tatsuko_suit.gif~originalhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/cverse_alts/Mito-Miwa_suit.gif~originalhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/cverse_alts/Mito-Miwa_suit1.gif~original

Damn you crazy son of a fin How the hell are you getting the job done in 10 secs for 1 pic!? Keep it up, awesome progress!

That last batch is great, makes me want to start a game with a Canadian promotion Played a bit PGHW '97 lately and needed a new Render for young Hirokumi Saito and actually got both a young and an older one out of it: http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/public/C-Verse%20Alts/HirokumiSaito_young.jpg~originalhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/public/C-Verse%20Alts/HirokumiSaito.jpg~original

I totally support this. And I would add that both a gimmick "Sir Winston" and a plain "young lion" render for him would be awesome

That is amazing! Creepily realistic.

Since I'm a huge fan of your work I felt both encouraged and challenged to give this a try Not entirely happy with the mask though but maybe I'm just super picky because it's my own work. http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/CV97_WashiHeat.jpg~originalhttp://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/CV97_WashiHeat_alt.jpg~original

Well I rendered a CV97 version of Koichi Kajiwara some time ago. All the rest of my renders should be accessible through my photobucket album. http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q658/Shinsuke87/myrenders/CV97_KoichiKajiwara.jpg~original

Some nice work lately! Collection of more or less recently created renders, mostly for private CV97 games. I will start with my versions of NagaMori since those guys are trending atm.

Nice! Well done, especially the Koiso render. So there's no reason to stop rendering Japanese guys

Thank you guys for the kind words! I always feel awfully restricted with the limited choices for hair styles and facial morphs I'm able to use. But if you mix these renders with the awesome work of all the great artist around here it makes for a very colourful set of renders. I'm the same in that an inspiring pic for a mediocre worker makes me want to push that guy to the top.
