I want Pete to look more nerdy

[Morpheus35]

Its bit strange suggestion but I think Pete is not Nerd enough.

I saw concept art for the characters and that Pete was very good but I can not say that for the in game Pete. 

Is it possible to change Pete's appearance ?

[SnickerSnack]

Soooo... what do you suggest to make him more nerdy? He already has a stars and planets shirt, knee-high socks, glasses, and a nerd haircut. What else does he need? I'm genuinely curious.

I'm not a native english speaker but I try my best to explain what I meant there.

First of all I'm exclusively refering to Pete's face. Also did you see the concept art for the characters ?

 

I think they need to make him more like his concept art version. (In game model isn't bad or anything its very different from the concept art version)

The concept version's face is more cartoony and I think its more memorable in long term Also fits more for this game. And colors are more vibrant too.

When I look at the in game Pete I don't see a nerd I see someone pretending to look like a nerd. If its make sense

I think the characters needs to be more exaggerated for their features.

 

Also In my opinion all characters needs a little tweaking but If they are satisfied and these are the final models I'm okay with that.

I'm only suggesting my opinion and how I feel about these characters and their designs especially Pete cause I like him most.

Hmm. The only differing design elements are the glasses style shifting from round to aviator which would have been popular at the time of the game.

As far as the coloration it's an acceptable translation of the concept. The flat form tends to have higher saturation levels than the 3d because of atmospheric effects. If the same color intensity was there he would be out of place in the game world where most colors are muted.

He is too young for acne and they did subdue his freckles.  I just don't see what they could do other than making him wear Crocs and socks
