"Gladis" Aisha prototype design at Napoli Comicon, photos by Winx Club Forever Italia

Translation for the notes:

Pink camo and other "Sweet" (sic) colors Gladis is a sporty and practical girl, so she always wears "practical" and resistant dresses, shoes and accessories, which don't have just an aesthetic value. Everything can come back useful for her: the scarf she has in her pocket behind... (text is cut)

It seems the explorer outfit was initially going to be Aisha's main casual outfit and she was gonna wear Pink and other pastel colors!

The text there says "The shapes have lost their dynamism, so we made some updates to bring them back"

Looking at Icy's 3d models over the years, it's undeniable that the new model have been greatly updated for the better

Her forehead is actually a little smaller now but this is the best Icy has ever looked in 3D. Iginio if you're reading me,

A legend narrates that under the lake have lived even the mythical nymphs of Magix, including Dafne, Bloom's secret older sister. Dafne saved her baby little sister putting her into a time rift. Then she bravely fought the three Ancestral Witches...

Since Bloom has discovered her true story, she feels unmeasurable admiration and affection for Dafne

The Nymph Dafne

She has Domino's princess crown She wears a mask that makes her fascinating and mysterious Her movements are graceful She emanates a golden glow

I'm sorry for anyone finding out that actual 2000s fashion was that bad through the winx reboot

the reboot test animation is better than anything Miraculous has shat out

you can tell Rainbow is upping the animation quality and budget for the reboot at least

#except for the scrapped anime pilot #text

why is he posing like that

I really like your thoughts about the leaks. I'm actually excited about the different designs. I love some but am iffy on others. I hope there's more concepts on the board that we haven't seen yet. I have to say your last paragraph made me burst out laughing xD

Huahahah thank you! Glad we're all having fun with this. There's more concepts the leaker is holding hostage to scam people, but I'd like to believe this is Straffi's secret agent getting more money for their budget

On the Winx reboot leaks

Long post, leaks analisis, spoilers if you don't want to see it under Read More. Seeing the Rainbow artist names attached onto these pictures and the development renders, these are 100% real. On top of that, It's not the first time Rainbow got something leaked, received feedback and acted accordingly. Remember the negative feedback on the 2023 easter eggs designs? Poof, gone. Remember the positive feedback on the 2023 leaked group design? Suddenly, Rainbow started using that Bloom at press events.

I genuinely believe that Rainbow "leaks" stuff now on purpose to receive feedback without actually needing to announce anything final to broadcasters.

Let's see.

From the Lorem Ipsum we can tell this isn't remotely final, but a group test. We're back to Bloom with a ponytail (they really like it!) and Tecna does have robotic limbs. Each girl's design seems to reflect their elements:

Stella has stars, the sun, wings at her feet and light, even light rays on her wings and top

Bloom seems to have scales of some sort and patterns on her leggings. Maybe to indicate that she's an artist? Or meant to represent the breath of life?

Musa, the smallest, got some musical sheet onto her. Overall not the most musical inspired design. Everybody kinda looks like an ice skating ballerina.

Flora got flowers. Really most obvious one there.

Aisha's hair is a bit too much, I prefer her civilian braids more. I like how her dress has wavy patterns of sorts and sparkles that look like shining waters on her shorts and skirt. They can do better on her though. Wings look like they got splashes of water. It's still cool that Rainbow is experimenting more with black textured hair than any american animation studio, so kudos for that.

Tecna looks like she's wearing a circuit but looks the most generic. Probably because she has too much going on with a full bodysuit with patterns. I don't like the accessory on her head.

Proof that these are real: these obvious dev documents

They even got an alt with their "civilian" hairstyles, but it says "transform". Which means no hairstyle or design is final so far.

It seems Musa and Tecna share skintones, Bloom has her own, Stella and Flora share it too, Aisha has her own and is the darkest. I think we can make Stella and Flora a little darker each in varying degrees, to show that Stella is tanned and Flora is a dark skinned latina.

There is a lot of focus on the designs we saw leaked that got positive reception. It's likely they will be finalized, since they went as far as making a test animation with that Bloom design.

A lot going on here in this room already giving Bloom so much personality. Her own shelf with the name with a heart-shaped B. A guitar? A sketchbook and school supplies. Bloom is back to drawing again, we last saw that in World of Winx but in the main series it was always just left implied by her earth room's belongings and her huge drawing desk, yet it was never expanded upon. Hopefully her being an artist can finally shine through her personality.

Most importantly, she's back to being silly, goofy and expressive again. Of course, the reboot is back to square one with the story and characterizations. I hope more quirks that were not explored in the main series get more attention in the reboot (again, like Bloom being an artist!)

The Trix now got a symbol and individual faces while sharing the same body. Icy's design is nearly identical to the original, I actually like the small cuts showing skin on her chest, so she doesn't feel too covered up. Midriffs are back and so is 2000s fashion.

Important detail, Icy is taller than Bloom. Is it her heels? Regardless, we got some more body diversity.

Some more notes:

Artist is credited as Pasqualino Masciulli, a real 3d artist at Rainbow

Date is 17 April 2024, for some reason they're using the wrong format. This is VERY recent. They're NOWHERE near done!

It says episode 106. It must be a reference to the reboot itself, Season 1, episode 6, as the old series episodes in total were 208. This means the series has at least finished writing and storyboarding, but they haven't finished with the character designs yet!

Further proof that fucking nothing is done yet, the leaker said this. From what I just noted above, I believe it. They're not remotely done.

This "Damien" motherfucker looks ai generated, doesn't fit the style in the slightest with his weirdly realistic face and the belts details and clothing folds are all over the place. Shame to whoever did this.

Who even is this guy? Is he the new character Iginio was warning us about? He doesn't look bad but they can do even better. Definitely a fascinating choice for the sexy bad boy, because I know that's who he's gonna be.

Don't fucking use AI for your art, though. It looks like shit.

Interesting, no specialists in the leaks. No Roxy or Terra either though.

This outfit is a mix of 2 outfits from season 2. Which means they're studying their own old designs. The same goes for another Bloom render and concept.

Fascinating detail: they're using 2000s dress up pixel dolls as reference. Learn from the masters! This dress doesn't resemble anything and doesn't seem to be a civilian dress but a transformation one, with all the glitters and stars around.

Last but not least, absolutely atrocious 2000s fashion is back (this is a good thing). We can hope a little but it's surprising how in 5 years they haven't done shit yet. That's some development hell. Either Iginio is really passionate about making this the second coming of Christ or they don't know what the fuck they're doing.

Free hopium tanks!

Tumblr doesn't allow me to reply privately (not even from my main) for some reason so I'll have to do this

AFAIK we have "all the specialists" according to descriptions but I haven't seen them. We KNOW Valtor is the main villain and there's photos and there should be the Trix too but I haven't seen them either

#reply #I hope I get to see it irl lol

Not only did the new Winx musical at Mirabilandia premiere on holy week, there were a lot of boys and adults attending! Nature is healing

Happy Easter or Happy Angel Monday! What did you find inside the egg? Your fave Winx of the Kinder trio? Iginio Straffi's apology? The blood of a Netflix executive

i remember some of my jp friends looked up foreign dubs of jp stuff they grew with and they frankly said the voices sounded all wrong including the italian dubs. i was like noooo but now I really get it.

#to make things worse i actually understand what the fuck the eng dubs are saying #so oh the dubs are bad AND the dialogue is worse
