REVAMPED CHARACTER
CAPTAIN BAABEAUSSA (Vellbex)- A pirate captain who mildly instills caution wherever she sails, Baabeaussa and her crew search high and low for treasures, bounties, rewards, and other fun stuff like that to finance the Vellbex back home. Let me tell you something- Baabeaussa is a hardcore pirate, to the point she wears gear even if those parts of her body are still OK. Except the leg, though- Baabeaussa picked the wrong day to anger Cheepskipper. That's to say nothing of the stories the Pianta Captain Ahant has on her.
Oh, and not only is Baabeaussa the sister of the Squad Captain- Baamere and Ganag of the Dark Bloo Inn are her mom and son, respectively. Yep- Vellbex families are closely knit, given how few of them remain on Prism Island and their near non-existence off it.

MAIN SERIES CHARACTER ANNOUNCEMENT- LAST 7 DAYS EVENT! +We are now 1 week away from when the vote for main series characters to be added in the Recut closes. We are also 2 weeks away from when the actual Color Splash releases. So let's look at the standings right now for each character. (Also, I may have failed to disclosed that this vote is taking place across three websites- GameFAQs, Mario RPG Universe, and Mario Boards.)
Waluigi- 4 Wario- 4 Boom Boom & Pom Pom- 1 Daisy- 2 Pauline- 2 Rosalina- 2 Hisstocrats- 1 King Boo- 1 Mottley Bossblob- 1 Nabbit- 1 Polari- 1 E Gadd- 1 King Bob-omb- 1 Yoshi (original)- 1 Toadette- 1
Unless something changes, the results look locked in place. So, to shake things up, an announcement: the total number of main series characters a forumer can vote on has increased from 2 to 4! That gives everyone a little more breathing room, and this vote much less predictability!

LEVEL PREVIEW (last one until full topic!)- ROCHAMBEAU TEMPLE #1 GAMEPLAY +There’s two different Rochambeau tournaments- Coin Prize and Card Prize. ++Like in the actual game, you can only enter Coin Prize Challenges as many times equal to the number of Mini Paint Stars and Grand Paint Stars Mario has collected. Alternatively, Mario can bribe the shifty Blue Toad as usual. ++Meanwhile, Card Prize tournaments can be entered an infinite number of times. +The prizes for Coin Challenge tourneys have been cut to half. The cost to reenter prematurely, meanwhile, is 75 coins. +Card Challenge prizes are as follows… 1 WIN: 1 Jump Card, 1 Hammer Card, 1 Mushroom Card 2 WINS: 1 Super Jump Card, 1 Super Hammer Card, 1 Super Mushroom Card 3 WINS: 1 Mega Jump Card, 1 Mega Hammer Card, 1 Mega Mushroom Card
CHARACTERS +The Toad announcer is replaced with a Brustache announcer- Buvvert. i.imgur.com/VSCk46c.png +The audience is changed to mostly mixed species (though using only a few models). Ironically, Memphawks are the only species not present. +The first Goomba is replaced with a Cleft. BUVVERT: And in THIS corner! Lurking around Parts Unknown! The rock with a chiseled chin! The spiked stealth master! Cluh-cluh-cluh-cluh… CLEFT!
+Rock Paper Wizard is one of the only adult male Toads outside of Green Zone retaining their original species, gender and age.

Just made an account here to comment about how amazing this project is. I'm personally excited to play Color Splash in it's current state, but if the final game was more like this, it would be WAY better. My votes for the Main Series Characters are Rosalina and Motley Bossblob. Rosalina would be a good fit for one of the confirmed leaked stages (don't know how to include a spoiler box so I won't mention what it is) and Motley could work as an enemy in the circus stage.
Edit: Wait, you can vote for four characters? If I can vote for the same character multiple times, I will add two extra votes for Rosalina. If not, i'll vote for Wart and Wingo.

QUICK UPDATE- CRUNCHED EDITION +Just to avoid any "trouble", the full topic will not be uploaded until at least October 14th. In fact, due to the large scope of even the normal game, the Recut may take a significantly longer amount of time than expected. That said, I will still use a recent unforseen, yet still lucky, development to help with the Recut. +Until then, here's three somewhat out-of-context altered images...
CHARACTERS FRIBYRD- The ranger of Daffodil Peak. SPIRIDEMUS- The fake Mountain Sage. Also the real Red Key to Crimson Tower.
SCENES
Boo vs. Shy Guy
A not-so-Fribyrd
Mountain Sage- yeah, right
An unexpected collision
Morton's speech
SOME ANNOUNCEMENTS +Given some surprising news about the actual plot of Color Splash, the Recut might be going in a different direction than I intended. While there's still some twists and turns in the Recut, I'm still mostly bound by what the actual game does. +Regarding progress, I've screen-captured some shots up to the third Big/Grand Paint Star from certain videos, to edit over later. +On a more serious note, less connected yet which still impacts this project, I may be busier than usual in the foreseeable future. Therefore, do not be surprised if there is a significant delay between the actual game's release and the Recut.

FLASH ANNOUNCEMENT+ ONE FINAL PEEK FURTHER IN 24 hours leftuntil the vote closes. If there are any main series characters you wish to see in this alternate version of Color Splash, yet have not expressed this, readers have until 11:59pm (almost 24 hours) to do so.
Also, I may have been skipping around a little while watching a certain stream, but only to learn important information. Now that I know for sure what I'm building up to, though, I can take my time. Until then, here is the only spoileriffic pic I'm showing, giving certain characters from the game some extra screentime. And not only do one of these characters breaks a certain rule at a certain point while I struggle to eat a certain bird after criticizing the game's pre-release info- this isn't even the most spoileriffic scenario with them in the Recut...
SPOILER! MID-GAME CHAPTER INTERLUDE IN RECUT, CONCERNS CONTENT FROM ACTUAL GAME'S CHAPTERS 6 and 7...

AND VOTING IS OVER! +After a month of mild action, the voting season for main series characters in this alternate take on Color Splash is over! And the final results ARE!
So from the looks of things... 1st! Waluigi and Wario 2nd! Rosalina and Wart 3rd! Daisy and Mottley
Thanks to everyone who participated in voting on their fave characters. I truly appreciate how many people took the time to decide who they wanted most. Even if you didn't vote and had something to say, I appreciate you for your honesty, even if it ever looked otherwise.
Now, for a little confession. As the numbers didn't seem to be really moving, I prepared model sheets for a few characters. And I was correct! Here's first and second place for now.
WALUIGI
WARIO
ROSALINA
WART As I didn't decide how much a ranking should "count" until now, Daisy and Mottley will come later. After that, I'll leave this topic up as long as possible (depending on the website) for discussion on Color Splash- original or Recut.
