@Shortiecanbrawl Here's the Cranky interview. Says that Retro designers talked with Miyamoto about which characters to use, he made his suggestions (like Cranky), then Retro decided to build everything else up from scratch.

Oky, last time, I promise.
I slightly edited the colors of James' scaly edit and I think this is the best (and final) that I'm going to do:
Voila. I am done.
I did see the final boss and man, talk about a disappointing and boring fight.I really like the new image! Great job!
Also honestly, the kremlings were great. Maybe not always the most memorable butplease tell me someoe in here saw the final boss f DKC:TF. Please.
I still think it's Miyamoto who is keeping the Kremlings out of DKC. I have trouble trusting the man after what happened to Sticker Star.@Shortiecanbrawl Here's the Cranky interview.

That's impressive! If it was a part of some leak, I might believe it while still have some doubts in my mind. Still, amazing job with editing that image!Okay, one last one. I gave him a slight scaly texture.
If by "lift" you mean "lift ideas from an older, superior final boss," then yes, you do.Now… prepare to cringe… this came from NOA's Twitter:
Stuff like this makes me want to hold a 'Smash Roast,' or something to that effect.If by "lift" you mean "lift ideas from an older, superior final boss," then yes, you do.
The amazing thing is that the official K. Rool art will probably be even better than that.A comparison:
This both makes me cry and makes me incredibly happy. This just looks so right, this K. Rool is just perfect. We need the King back, we need him in Smash.
Unless they go with the awful Paon design...The amazing thing is that the official K. Rool art will probably be even better than that.
We don't talk about that.Unless they go with the awful Paon design...
I would be fine with something like that if we got his golden belly back.Unless they go with the awful Paon design...
I don't like it because I much prefer his belly being golden and his skin being scaly. If it wasn't for that, I'd be okay with the design...but those changes make him look like generic Mario character #7 to me.I like the Paon design. Not as much as the Rare design, but the original has its problems too. Preferably, I'd like Smash's K. Rool to be a compromise between both.
I agree in that the lack of scales is my main gripe with the design. It's much too smooth and has lost the grittier aspects of his Rare look, which of course leads to him resembling a Mario character. To be fair, that's the direction the DK series has been taking for about a decade now, so K. Rool isn't the only one affected, but he's probably taken the biggest hit, since his design was more "Rare-like" than most of the Kongs'.I don't like it because I much prefer his belly being golden and his skin being scaly.

Nice. That K. Rool art is great.A comparison:

Simply perfect, and I've already convinced a friend to use that image in an upcoming project for K. Rool. I can't imagine the hype if the Kremling Kommander gets in, it'll be electric!A comparison:

Has it been stressed enough how great this is? I don't think so, it's just that great.A comparison:

I don't think I can say anything else that hasn't been said in summing up how great that render looks for King K. Rool, great job guys, he looks fantastic!A comparison:

That's just perfect. I honestly believe that's what he could look like on the Wii U version.A comparison:
