Concept Art #35: From Russia with... (Patreon)

Whew, it's been super-hot lately! But we're fighting back with water-assisted fans and a flurry of coding, so we're still as cool as sunglasses here at Silver Cow Studio!

We're looking forward to showing you a preview of a new Time Tenshi character sprite soon! But first, we thought you guys would like to know about one of the characters who didn't make it into the original Time Tenshi game, despite being part of the design document!

For the first time, we're revealing the existence of the formidable Russian soldier girl, Ksenia!

Back when we were planning the first entry in the series, this no-nonsense woman was originally conceived to be part of the Time Tenshi, and she would have had a hardened and outwardly cold personality... but with a big heart underneath the harsh exterior!

In battle, she'd have been calculating and ruthlessly efficient with her weapons and explosives, taking out objectives more effectively than anyone else on the team. Her Time Suit would, of course, have been a military special forces uniform with matching beret, while she'd have enjoyed embroidery and - yes - military rations!

Unfortunately we didn't ever commission any art of this battle-ready girl, since she didn't make the final shortlist for inclusion, but we hope the above (which is taken straight from the original design document) gives you a good impression of how she'd have looked in-game!

Thanks for your great support guys, and come back soon for more news and updates!
