Can't people make original skins for once??

Agreed. Nice art, but doesn't read like Nyx at all.

Looks like a valkyr skin to me.

Nah I would love this on my Nyx, and I play her all the time!

The body is nyx but the helmet doesn't fit nyx's design elements. More Valkyr

but thats exactly the reason why its so good

The thing is, in game dsign, theers a thing called recognition , sertain shilouhettes of keyx elemts need to be recognizable in their shilhuette, one of the most well known examples are Pokemon, Link, Samus, ALL TF2 Classes, sTREETFIGHER ETC; NOT SAY IT needs to be this way but it is a cornerstone to make a design iconic. Not all games do that especially ones withrealistic settings.

Warframe however Has thoose reconizable design everywhere, corpus helmets, grineer armor, orokin Attachements warframne even goes so far as to assign A certain color palette to each faction with only special units defiating from it making them fall into the eye isntantly. as such id say if i saw a nyx with that skin id prolly think "Gara" first and nyx second. so far only deluce skins have broken that scheme in warframe, example all exaclibur skins save one have a horn ( exeption being ronin skin.

That said whille warframe has alot of those schemes there are also exeptions so while this set has decent chances i too be accepted anyways ( gerneally from what i have seen the quality is great)
i do agrre that the helmet might need a change, however this change can be minimal to achive said effect.

Tl, Dr Small changes already may help more for the recogniton of the frame without sacrificeng orginality.

suggestion to make this look more like nyx. The crest/horn thing at the middle, make it bigger, arch it backwards and put some details on it (since it's gonna be bigger), make the wing side things smaller. and we have the iconic nyx helm swept-back horn silhouette.

As Yahudiel pointed out, her Crest is a pretty demanding central feature. I would never suggest getting rid of this helmet. I LOVE the design. I said as much. I am just a stickler for iconic warframe helmets.

Weapons I give a wider margin, but not by much.

Looks like Mesa

A lot of Tennogen dont look like their default frames. Whats your point? They can't change the body mesh, the only thing they can change is the helmet, and looking at this skin I could tell right away it's Nyx just by the way the body shape is. Who are you to tell a tennogen artist what helmet belongs where?

I however fail to see why somebody wouldn't be able to give criticism to an artist

Why do you guys rave on about recognition? TennoGen helmets are not supposed to look like default helmets - That's the point of TennoGen helmets. If you guys want Nyx's s h i t t y crest, let me give you hint: Starts with d and ends with efault.

This head should be on another frame.

Thats the idea man! The skis don´t need follow the same look of the default frame. It´s so more cool when then give a new idea or way. Many here have this same choice, be different not the same.

Sometimes the artists choose be close to the original concept, sometimes take inspiration on other works or styles. Thats how the tennogen works and i love all the cases.

But i respect your opinion. ^^

I don't understand why everyone whines about "it doesn't look like x!" like it's so silly. That's the point! Tennogen are new takes on the warframe, sometimes they're close to base and sometimes they try something new, THAT'S GOOD. Like, do you just want a retexture of the default skin and helm or what? Besides, if you don't like the look of one unique skin, use literally any other skin for the warframe. No one is forcing you to buy a skin you don't like.
